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.

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.

Ed Tudor Pole

13 Jul 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

27 Sept 2025 - 27 Sept 2025

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. plus special guests 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.

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. This is an 18+ event.

Pengshui

17 Jul 2025 - 17 Jul 2025

New date: this show will now be taking place on thursday 17 th july 2025. all tickets will remain valid Safe As Milk Promotions and New Cross Live present 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. https://linktr.ee/pengshuiii + support Thursday 17th July 2025 New Cross Inn Doors 6pm Tickets £12 ADV STBF

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. https://open.spotify.com/artist/2qNMrWESolNFF3oc6YYKPc plus supports TBA Presented by Safe As Milk, Be Sharp Promotions and New Cross Live.

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.

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!

Wonk Unit

4 Jul 2025 - 4 Jul 2025

Wonk Unit have recently recorded their newest – and possibly heaviest - album 'Uncle Daddy,' which was largely written and recorded during the Covid-19 pandemic. It's perhaps their most collaborative work, which captures a year of isolation and sadness, as others laugh together around Alex's backyard skate bowl. The album features the singles 'Cyclists', 'Summertime', 'Strength' and 'Raise My Glass', which received widespread praise and coverage by the likes of Steve Lamacq and Rodney Bingenheimer. Uncle Daddy captures everything that has made Wonk Unit a cult favourite in the UK punk scene- it's heavy but also experimental and humour-tinged, political but highly personal. Supporting are Yur Mum, who make their Fine City debut. The Brazilian punk-rock duo are arguably one of the heaviest acts we have ever booked, but they are fantastic. Think a multi-cultural band who share hopes, dreams, anger and anxieties through thunderous punk with a polished metal edge, performed in their own inimitable style. Opening the night are local favourites I Said Goodbye, who make a welcome return to our local music world. Post punk/power pop for a post pandemic population.

In 2020 Press Club continue their unbridled romp around the globe, touring Australia and, again touring Europe for a marquee appearance at Download Festival.   The four Brunswick friends have played music together in varying formations over the last 15 years.   The group who emphasises their live performance also have a big place in their heart for the studio - recording, mixing and designing everything in-house.

Liqueur - A Tribute To The Cure

27 Sept 2025 - 27 Sept 2025

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. Http://www.Liqueurband.Com/ Plus special guests 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.

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.

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 hail from Riverside, California and have been putting on the show of their lives since 1990. Punk, rock and soul have been used to try and categorize what they do but some how isn't enough.

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.
