18 Jul 2025 - 30 Dec 2025
Peter and the Test Tube Babies are a punk rock band that was formed in the small town of Peacehaven, England in 1978 by Del Strangefish and Peter Bywaters. Due to their humorous tongue-in-cheek lyrics, they have been considered part of the Punk Pathetique subgenre. Peter and the Test Tube Babies were first featured in Sounds magazine in July 1980, and after a John Peel Radio One session, made their vinyl debut on the Brighton compilation album Vaultage 78. They also had two songs on the seminal Oi! compilation Oi! the Album in that same year. They favoured absurd lyrics and strange titles, such as "The Queen Gives Good Blow Jobs". In 1982, they covered the chart-topping Gary Glitter hit "I'm the Leader of the Gang (I Am)" on their album Pissed and Proud.
Los Fastidios

The Los Fastidios sound is a powerful melodic streetpunk which mixes classical 80’s British Punk-OI! sounds with a lot of skanking moments, and more rock'n'roll and hardcore rhythms, sung in Italian with some touches of english, french, spanish and german languages. The lyrics come from the most cheerful street situations to more serious and involved matters which deal with social problems, such as battles against racism-fascism and any form of discrimination, for the animal rights, for freedom and against the capitalistic system

One of the key bands of the UK ska revival of the late '70s and early '80s,The Beat achieved a near-perfect balance of pop melodies and taut rhythms that made them stars in Britain and won them a substantial cult following in the United States.
The Beat were based in Birmingham, England and released their debut single, "Tears of a Clown" b/w "Ranking Full Stop," through the Specials' 2-Tone label in 1979. The single went Top Ten in the U.K., and they soon struck a deal with Arista to distribute their own Go Feet label. 1980's I Just Can't Stop It (released by Sire in the United States) went gold in England on the strength of the single "Mirror in the Bathroom," and the band's ferocious performances and clever blend of personal and political lyrics made them stars at home.
Ranking Jnr, son of the late Ranking Roger, is carrying on his father's legacy.

Ed Tudor Pole
30 Nov 2025 - 30 Nov 2025
If you think that punk music should be like a McDonalds burger, ie:- utterly predictable and the same every time then your view differs from Tenpole's! "The spirit of punk has always been there - it's something to do with rebellion, e.g. Jerry Lee Lewis or Keith Richards, just happens that in 1976 they named this spirit 'Punk'.! " say's Ed. Tenpole was glad to find out what he was at last, for he'd been playing guitar and trying to write great songs in that spirit since he was a boy, long before 1976 came along. "Punk is an attitude not a form of music, ask Steve Jones!! Say's Tenpole. " I date back to the birth of punk rock when it was all about being original, create your own look, and before the time when it became a competition to see which band could sound the most similar to another! I've always rebelled against uniformity. If it is just a simple formula then it is not subversive, and if there is no subversion, ladies & gentlemen, it ain't Punk!!" "At the moment Im trying to see how much excitement can be generated with a man, a guitar, & an audiences. If you have to label what I play, call it Rock'n'Roll. Ever onward my fellow being's! Avoid stagnation: whatever else it is, Punk is surely anti-stagnation!" "By the way, all your view's on what punk represents are as true & valid as mine, however different, we all think our opinion is the right one, but who can judge
Come and see me play,listen to my stories ,ask me some questions. Im getting good now, but ultimately, it's down to YOU how good the gig is!!"

Liqueur - a tribute to The Cure

New Cross Live presents
Liqueur - a tribute to The Cure
The idea of forming a Cure tribute band was first jokingly discussed over more than a few beers in the summer of 2006. The original idea was to be a food and drink-based tribute band, given The Cures reputation as enthusiastic drinkers and lovers of a good curry!
Hours of fun ensued fooding up Cure songs and albums, including such gems as Piemary, A Forest Gateaux, Quiche me Quiche Me Quiche Me and Seventeen Seconds (can you see what we did there?). However once sober, it was decided that a more traditional tribute route should be taken if we ever wanted to play to an audience without getting food thrown at us! However, the throwaway name, Liqueur, seemed to stick.
Original Liqueur members, Mark (drums), Daz (bass) and Chris (Guitar/Vocals) were seasoned veterans of the Norfolk music scene and had previously all played together in a mid 90s Britpop band, Betty Ford. Although not intentional (sic), we were often referred to as a Blur tribute band, thus making the transition to another tribute band relatively straightforward.
At the beginning of 2007, The Three Imaginary Boys began rehearsals in earnest with their first gig taking place on a cliff top somewhere in North Norfolk in August of the same year. The following year, Gary was added to the band on guitar and keyboards. The new 4-piece Liqueur debuting at The Brickmakers, Norwich in December 2008. From this point onwards Liqueur have gigged all over the UK regularly, the reception we receive from our audiences is always fantastic and we have made many friends on our travels, many of whom now travel the country to watch us play. Comments such as, You sound more like The Cure than The Cure! Or Im more excited about seeing Liqueur than seeing The Cure! are not a rare occurrence.
In 2012, Liqueur introduced Dave into the fold on keyboards and occasional guitar, however family commitments (and a love of techno) made his tenure somewhat short-lived and he was replaced by Si in 2013, thus giving Liqueur its current classic 5 piece line-up.
What makes Liqueur special is the fact that we all like The Cure; weve been fans since we were kids (I would calculate the accumulative fan years we hold but I dont have enough fingers, and hailing from Norfolk, thats really saying something!). Reproducing the songs is the easy part, we want to look, sound, eat and drink The Cure, therefore we try to use the same equipment as the band wherever we can (thank you eBay and Barclaycard!) and the look and feel of our gigs is very important to us. When we play a gig.we are The Cure and we want you to feel like you are watching The Cure.

Reptile House - a tribute to Sisters Of Mercy
Crested in early 2023, Reptile House are the alter ego of a dark alternative originals band that have been together since 2017. Having previously been booked to play a set of Sisters of Mercy tracks at Whitby in 2019 the band were then asked to support The Spouky Kids last year at a gothic wedding.
That moment opened their eyes to the possibilities of a tribute.
The band are recreating tracks from the Reptile House EP through to the Vision Thing album, with visual representation of Andrew Eldritch, Wayne Hussey, Craig Adams and Patricia Morrison and slideshow charting moments of the bands era through this period.
Expect plenty of smoke, black and shades.

Reptile House - a tribute to Sisters Of Mercy
Crested in early 2023, Reptile House are the alter ego of a dark alternative originals band that have been together since 2017. Having previously been booked to play a set of Sisters of Mercy tracks at Whitby in 2019 the band were then asked to support The Spouky Kids last year at a gothic wedding.
That moment opened their eyes to the possibilities of a tribute.
The band are recreating tracks from the Reptile House EP through to the Vision Thing album, with visual representation of Andrew Eldritch, Wayne Hussey, Craig Adams and Patricia Morrison and slideshow charting moments of the band's era through this period.
Expect plenty of smoke, black and shades.

Pengshui

JOY.
Pengshui don’t care much for barriers. How else do you end up with their eviscerating self-titled debut album, a bulldozing ambush of riffs and aggressive raps that tears down the walls between grime and punk? “It’s this unhinged, loud sound that actually came about pretty organically,” grins the group’s bassist/producer Fatty, joined in the band by vocalist Illaman and drummer Pravvy Prav. “We mash up the sub bass, those 140bpm tempos of grime with the attitude and live energy of punk.” It’s a logical pairing when you think about it, Illaman adds. “After all, grime is the new punk. You go to a grime night now and everyone’s moshing. Grime and punk are both made up of people with something to say politically and personally, who’ve got this DIY spirit.

PENGSHUi
Pengshui dont care much for genre barriers.
Since forming in 2018 with the introductory single 'CONTROL, PENGSHUi have released 2 LP's (the self titled Pensghui and 2022's 'Destroy Yourself) and three EP's with the latest being EP iii released in March 24.
One of Pengshui's first big moments was winning the Kerrang! Radio Finding Fresh Blood competition which gained them a slot at Download Festival which they then played again in 2022. Having also bagged multiple appearances at Glastonbury, Boomtown Festival, Bloodstock, Colours of Ostrava, Pohoda, 2000 Trees and many more.
Pengshui were also to asked to remix 2 tracks for The Prodigy by Liam himself which include a blistering rework of 'Light Up The Sky' and 'Omen' which always ignites a crowd whenever they play them live.
Fittingly for a trio whose music unites sounds from two different cultures, Pengshui themselves are made up of members from different backgrounds.
Fatty grew up in Blackpool and picked up guitar aged 7, before moving to Leeds to study jazz. From there he formed the Ninja Tune-signed Submotion Orchestra before session work playing with grime duo Newham Generals and P Money tipped his love for bass music into overdrive. I was just so into that chaos. It was a really exciting scene.
Illaman's story, meanwhile, began in London's Queen's Park. My grandad is a Jamaican man who raised me on music from a baby. In nan and grandad's house, where I spent most of my youth, I just remember the smell of weed, the sound of slamming dominos and these heavy reggae bass lines, says the MC. I grew up on a council estate where I was always around music: my cousin was a garage DJ whod invite me to pirate radio with him. I had rude boy mates and skater mates with grunger chains and Blue Bolt jeans, and loved music from both those worlds. His first band, Flict, combined elements of both and lasted for nine years, supporting Skindred and working with Cypress Hill members.
We wanna take it as far as it can go, write fucking bangers and play big stages, says Dave. For and for him there is one deep, personal ambition he wants to fulfil. The guitarist in my old band passed away. We always used to talk about how crazy itd be to play in front of 25,000 people. When he died, I decided I would love to honour his memory by playing to as many big audiences as possible, he says.
After all, this is a band who crash through barriers. Weve all wanted to do a band like this for 10 years, says Illaman. Now theyre doing it, expect them to rip down any barrier in their way.
Pengshui have just finished recording their 3rd studio record and have some big plans for what's next to come.

7 Seconds of Love
14 Nov 2025 - 14 Nov 2025
7 Seconds Of Love
FIRST LONDON SHOW IN 9 YEARS
It's no surprise that Britain's ska-tinged comedy rock act 7 Seconds of Love is the creation of Joel Veitch, the Internet animator behind cult website www.rathergood.com and Quizno's ads featuring the infamous Spongmonkeys. After recruiting his brother Alex Veitch to play keyboards, Joel met the five other musicians who would round out the act -- Pat Schulenburg (guitar), Ed Snow (drums), Ed Harding (trumpet), Ian Paterson (saxophone), and Stephen Pattison (bass). The band started playing shows in London, later expanding to regional and national gigs, as well as maintaining an enthusiastic digital following thanks to Joel's animated music videos and the release of singles. In January 2007, fans in Argentina alerted 7 Seconds of Love that a Coca-Cola commercial being shown in the country bore a striking similarity to the group's song and video for "Ninja." A legal agreement was reached with the company in which Coca-Cola paid the band an undisclosed sum; 7 Seconds of Love used some of the money to record and distribute an EP, and then donated the rest to two children's charities.

Chris Murray
3 Aug 2025 - 3 Aug 2025
Chris Murray - acoustic ska legend or modern ska icon - whichever is cooler
http://www.unstrictlyroots.com/
A gifted songwriter and dynamic performer, Chris began his career in 1987 with Canadian ska group King Apparatus. Upon the band's breakup, he relocated to Los Angeles and emerged as a solo artist, pioneering a solo acoustic approach that has now become widespread in the genre.
Life has led Chris down a path to the very roots of reggae music. From jamming with The Specials in a basement club, to recording with Lloyd Knibb and Lloyd Brevett of The Skatalites, and in backing groups for foundation artists such as Prince Buster and Leonard Dillon (The Ethiopians), Chris has served his apprenticeship with the finest musicians connected with the genre.
Chris hosted Bluebeat Lounge, a weekly concert series at Knitting Factory in Hollywood, which presented hundreds of acts from around the globe during its seven year run, including such legendary names as Desmond Dekker, Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, The Selecter, and Rico Rodriguez.
His songwriting credits have appeared on releases by many beloved acts like Hepcat, The Slackers, Neville Staple, and Planet Smashers. The anthemic "We Do The Ska" was covered by influential UK group, The King Blues.
Chris has performed in dozens of countries on six continents, including Brazil, Japan, Indonesia and Morocco. With numerous UK tours under his belt, Chris has built a strong following through package tours with popular groups The Skints, RX Bandits, and Sonic Boom Six, an appearance at the London International Ska Festival, and scores of rowdy pub gigs!
Dirty DC: AC/DC Tribute
8 Aug 2025 - 28 Dec 2025
Down & Dirty!
AC/DC is a band whose appeal is huge, widespread through the generations and totally indifferent to musical fashions. Their unique formula of tight riffs and fat rhythm combines dance ability with hard-rocking anthems that flow through the blood of all who have been smitten by their cheeky-but-colossal offerings. If you want to see AC/DC, but your options are limited, then check out Dirty DC. You will not be disappointed. All the energy and electricity of an AC/DC show along with completely faithful renditions will leave you trembling, with a smile on your face.
Dirty DC have been playing throughout Britain and parts of Europe since 1998, and have developed the line-up and dynamic stage show that has made their current reputation seriously strong amongst AC/DC fans, whether die-hard fanatics, or just people who want a good night out. Every visual detail has been fine-tuned; from drum kit model to footwear, but most importantly, the musical delivery and stage show has an impact that does not fail to impress.

Their self-released debut EP, Cut Down for the Earth, was released in April this year: https://cruelmother.bandcamp.com/album/cut-down-for-the-earth-2
Tales of Perdition
Drawing inspiration from bands such as Nightwish, Iron Maiden and Trivium, London-based symphonic metal band TALES OF PERDITION combine dual guitar harmonies and thrash metal riffs alongside operatic vocal melodies and orchestration.

We attempt to capture the sound, look and feel of the Band from the 1994-1997 era, mainly performing tracks from Definitely Maybe and Whats the Story Morning Glory with a few famous B-sides and later singles thrown in for good measure. Our show is inspired and drawn from those early gigs and huge stadium shows so come and check us out and transport yourself back to that magical time in the 90's when Britpop ruled the world.

Liqueur - A Tribute To The Cure

Liqueur - a tribute to The Cure
What makes Liqueur special is the fact that we all like The Cure; we’ve been fans since we were kids (I would calculate the accumulative fan years we hold but I don’t have enough fingers, and hailing from Norfolk, that’s really saying something!). Reproducing the songs is the easy part, we want to look, sound, eat and drink The Cure, therefore we try to use the same equipment as the band wherever we can (thank you eBay and Barclaycard!) and the look and feel of our gigs is very important to us. When we play a gig....we are The Cure and we want you to feel like you are watching The Cure.

Reptile House - a tribute to Sisters Of Mercy
Crested in early 2023, Reptile House are the alter ego of a dark alternative originals band that have been together since 2017. Having previously been booked to play a set of Sisters of Mercy tracks at Whitby in 2019 the band were then asked to support The Spouky Kids last year at a gothic wedding.
That moment opened their eyes to the possibilities of a tribute.
The band are recreating tracks from the Reptile House EP through to the Vision Thing album, with visual representation of Andrew Eldritch, Wayne Hussey, Craig Adams and Patricia Morrison and slideshow charting moments of the band’s era through this period.

Diablo Productions Presents
The Troops of Doom
formed in 2020, during the pandemic, by the original SEPULTURA guitarist Jairo “Tormentor” Guedz. He recorded the albums “Bestial Devastation” (1985) and “Morbid Visions” (1986). Jairo left the band in 1987, making way for Andreas Kisser, who continues with the band to this day. THE TROOPS OF DOOM’s lineup also includes other significant figures from the Brazilian metal scene, such as guitarist Marcelo Vasco (Patria, Mysteriis), a globally renowned graphic artist known for his work with bands like Slayer, Dee Snider, Kreator, Machine Head, Soulfly, and many others. The vocalist and bassist Alex Kafer, former live guitarist for Matanza, and drummer Alexandre Oliveira, a former member of the band Tianastácia, complete the lineup.
Currently, the band is about to release their highly anticipated second album, “A Mass To The Grotesque,” produced by André Moraes, a multi-talented musician known for his work on Sepultura’s “Dante XXI” and the soundtrack of the film “Lisbela e o Prisioneiro,” at Audio Porto studio in Porto Alegre/RS. The mixing and mastering of the album were done by Jim Morris at the legendary Morrisound Recording in Tampa, Florida, known for producing some of the greatest Death Metal classics of the 80s and 90s. The cover art was painted by the acclaimed artist Dan

Bruce Juice - Springsteen Tribute Act
17 Oct 2025 - 17 Oct 2025
Safe As Milk Promotions and New Cross Live present
Bruce Juice
A live injection of Bruce Juice during the long years between Bruce Springsteen’s tours, this new band provides a vibrant tonic pumped into every aching hungry heart.
You can expect an ‘E-Street’ experience that captures the unique seven-piece band line-up through arrangements from legendary concerts such as the Main Point to the Bottom Line, Passaic, Winterland and Tempe.
This is the only Springsteen tribute band that combines both popular favourites with the essence of Springsteen’s arrangements in legendary live gigs and an unforgettable show.
We certainly do not try to imitate or mimic Springsteen, which as all fans will know, would be an exercise in failure, though we will borrow a variety of phrases, caricatures and moments from great Bruce gigs to give a glimpse of what an up close and personal experience it must have been for all those fortunate enough to have seen Bruce in those small, intimate gigs at the Bottom Line and the Main Point, among many others.
So, we aim to deliver a high-energy show inspired by Springsteen, to send you home with a strong injection of Bruce Juice until the real thing alights on these shores again.

Subhumans
28 Sept 2025 - 28 Sept 2025
The most amazing thing about Subhumans new LP, is that it doesn't really feel new at all. Crisis Point feels like it could have come at any point in the band's impressive, nearly 40 year career. Part of that is no doubt due to Dick Lucas familiar voice, and his unique half shouted, half sung delivery. Another part has to be that Subhumans haven't had a lineup change since 1983. That continuity clearly has musical benefits. Their rhythmic, propulsive, adventurous sound has never been bound by punk's traditional three chords.
Then, of course, there's the ambitious message. Those messages haven't changed much since Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher were on the receiving end of their wrath. Songs against authority and conformity never go out of style, no matter who the president is. While it's tempting to call Crisis Point timely, it's actually timeless. In truth, Crisis Point is a not so gentle reminder of why Subhumans are, and have always been a leading voice in the anarcho-punk movement. These words are important, and these words have power.
Opener Terrorist In Waiting has a fast, driving beat and a frightening message. The lead guitar on the only slightly slower Fear and Confusion is clearly emulating a police siren. Information Gap has a less traditional guitar riff, and questions what is really true in the age of fake news. The idea that the powers that be are lying to us is a common theme on Crisis Point. Atom Screen War seems to ponder the state of modern war, while Follow the Leader challenges respecting disrespectful authority. Both are punk ragers. Like all Subhumans records, Crisis Point is going to require the vigilant listener to spend some time reading and considering the lyrics.
Strange Land talks about the uneasiness that comes from the country you call home becoming almost unrecognizable. 99% is a memorable anthem for the working class. Punk Machine mocks fake punk bands with the wrong motives. Poison is about how were killing ourselves and our planet. After a brief musical interlude, Thought is Free finishes things up on a high note. It might be the strongest song on a record full of strong songs. The idea being that no matter what happens, nothing is capable of enslaving our minds.
It's pretty impressive that Subhumans can attack such familiar subject matter without coming across as cliché or insincere. In fact, they seem as genuinely pissed off as ever. Even with the words being as powerful as they are, the music is still able to match their intensity. It's difficult to find any significant fault with Crisis Point. It's smart and it rips. It's timely, timeless, and will no doubt be among the year end favourites of most aging punks. Hopefully a few of the younger generation will discover them too.

Shayfer James
9 Sept 2025 - 14 Sept 2025
When Shayfer James approaches the piano, there is a certain power and mischievous charm that surrounds him. A bewitching sense of foreboding builds as his fingers touch the piano, and as he begins to sing, we are immersed in his darkly lyrical and evocative stories. His wry poetry is stitched seamlessly to peculiar arrangements that are simultaneously unsettling and familiar. Mr. James lures us into a devious world where the gods tear wings from angels and every man has a siren waiting to devour him.
Mr. James'’gift for songwriting is singular. The songs on his first full-length album, The Owl & The Elephant range from beautifully sad to frightening and furious, and his performances are tailored to match. His style is theatrical, but never contrived.

The BellRays
3 Oct 2025 - 10 Oct 2025
Blues is the teacher. Punk is the preacher. Its all about emotion and energy, experience and raw talent, spirit and intellect. Exciting things happen when these things collide.
Bob Vennum and Lisa Kekaula made the BellRays happen in 1991 in Riverside but they weren't really thinking about any of this then. They wanted to play music and they wanted it to feel good. They wanted people to WANT to get up, to NEED to get up and check out what was going on. Form an opinion. React. So they took everything they knew about; the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, the Who, the Ramones, Billie Holiday, Lou Rawls, Hank Williams, the DB's, Jimmy Reed, Led Zeppelin, to name a very few and pressed it into service.
It was never about coming up with a 'sound', or fitting in with a scene. It was about the energy that made all that music so irresistible. It was the history BEFORE Led Zeppelin that led them to that point. The Beatles thought they were playing R&B. It just came out like 'Rubber Soul'. The Ramones were trying to be Del Shannon or Neil Sedaka and out came 'Rocket to Russia'.
With the BellRays there was no conscious effort to 'combine' rock and soul because they didn't see them as divided in the first place. Blues was teaching. Punk was preaching. The BellRays were always listening.

Helms Alee
15 Sept 2025 - 16 Sept 2025
Core. Presents
Helms Alee
Seattle three-piece Helms Alee has announced a new album Keep This Be The Way available April 29th via Sargent House. Across the span of their first five studio albums, the trio zeroed in on different aspects of their sound - a blend of lilting siren songs, crushing Northwest thunder and sludge, angular econo-rock, and heady guitar pop while retaining their no-frills, meat-and-potatoes approach in the studio. But with this Helms Alee expanded have their palette by delving into the production possibilities afforded by recording the album themselves, creating their most dynamic and technicolored work to date. This new approach is immediately evident on first single and album opener See Sights Smell Smells, where reverse cymbal crashes, fragmented piano, layered drums, woozy drones, saxophone freak-outs, and trippy vocal treatments transport the listener to an altered state of exhilarated anticipation. The song is accompanied by a video created by Allen Watke whose video art consists primarily of analog equipment with an emphasis on VHS dubbing, glitching & manipulation.

Redzed
11 Oct 2025 - 13 Oct 2025
333 Presents: Redzed + special guests Acid Rowe
Redzed is a Czech alternative rap-metal producer and rapper from Hustopeci, known for his unique combination of underground rap, nu metal and doom metal. He is one of the most listened to Czech artists on Spotify, both in the Czech Republic and abroad. With a rich musical career that includes experimentation with different styles and original production, he has built a strong fan base and regularly performs on both domestic and international stages.
If Robert Johnson lived till the days of electric guitars and amps, he might have considered jamming with czech stoner lunatics from Acid Row. A three-piece from Prague combining different genres and subgenres related mainly to stoner rock with tendencies and attitude of punk, echoes of doom metal, hazed with elements of psychedelic rock, poignant noise rock or 90s grunge. Existing since 2012. During that time they went through many mainly personal changes, but what persisted from the very beginning was their sympathy for the devil. Just like in the case of Robert Johnson. But meanwhile Johnson and other haunted bluesmen had laid the foundation for rock and roll and everything that followed, Acid Row resumed the devils ride with many rock and heavy metal legacies.

Suncharmer
Formed on a lonely Valentine’s Day as a distraction from a lack of romantic plans, Suncharmer embody the vibrancy and grit of 70's-inspired indie/rock firmly rooted in the modern age. That same juxtaposition of love and isolation is what drives the songwriting of the band, tied together with a sassy, feisty and energetic punch that occupies the space between soaring glam-rock anthems and moody, reflexive pop.
The band's live performances are always high energy, bringing their songs to life and renowned for giving off a party vibe whilst sharing some Suncharmer love.
