The Old England Pub

A four-way showcase of shoegaze and pop-punk in states of glorious ruin! Thistle deliver lean, hooky songwriting wrapped in pedalboard scuzz; The Young Hearts offer emotionally charged, chorus-heavy bangers; Pushbike fuse the two genres in a scabrous spin on pop-punk; and Parkii’s “shoemo” embraces life on its shittiest terms with cathartic sincerity. Thistle. + The Young Hearts + Pushbike + Parkii at The Old England Pub.

Arch psychonauts Velvet Echoes help birth Guzzlers’ second single out into the world: a grungy slice of tortured prog combined with Sickrose’s always-ace doom blues and Mantis’ Morricone-fried outlaw fuzz. Unmissably frazzled underground action FFO: The Black Angels, Thee Oh Sees, Sabbath, King Gizzard, Mars Volta, Tool. Psych/Doom/Stoner Rock

Standout supernatural freak folk from Brooklyn’s Anastasia Coope, who unsettles and soothes in equal measures. Her ethereal baroque-ambient sound channels the haunted girl group minimalism of Jessica Pratt in séance with Julianna Barwick’s experimental loops; she won’t be playing venues this size for long, so don’t sleep. Unmissable FFO: Julia Holter, Panda Bear, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Broadcast. Anastasia Coope + Support at The Old England

The Brackish carve chaos with an audacious precision, their sweltering live sets and boggling assemblage of stylistic strands rejecting all psych rock conventions. Fantastic Stranger channel raw sax fury, merging post-rock, trip-hop, and jazz into a blistering improv maelstrom. A mould-breaking double bill FFO: Can, Captain Beefheart, Ornette Colman, And So I Watch You From Afar. Let's get awkward!

Sell out warning! Hammer horror heavy psych and evil theatrical giallo fuzz from New Zealand via the Seventh Circle. Earth Tongue’s puckish dual-vocals and punkish aplomb paired with Troy the Band’s monolithic stoner doom = pure heaven/hell FFO: Ty Segall, Sabbath, Slift, Dead Meadow, Black Rainbows, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats. Heavy Psych Rock
