Theatre of Hate and The Skids

Well you know what they say, London is an amazing place where amazing people come from. Nobody says that, other than me, but this band has me saying that!

Being in university you are able to hear every single thing, yes everything, one of those things being different genres of music. My flatmate is a heavy lover of everything rock and yes that includes gothic rock and post punk. Anyway going back, my friend was blazing music out at 6pm and normally I would simply get annoyed, bang on his door, hurl abuse until he turned it down and move on, but this time, this time was different.
As I got up out of my seat to go to his room and bang on his door which I had done a thousand times before, I got there and I sort of just froze as I heard a catchy riff and steady drum pattern that actually made a connection within my body and the words came out 'Do you believe in the Westworld' I instantly fell in love I will not deny it!

They have such catchy melodies and songs with actual meaning, I do not mind listening to them at all and I am a Hip Hop fan, so for this band to actually spark an interest in me is really saying a lot! They are performing in Nottingham in a place nearby to me and so I have no other choice but to see them or I know I will regret this more than ever!

I advise you to do the same!

Great energy, Jobson is a fantastic stage presence and had the audience captivated the entire time. The band were very tight and fluid, nailed the tempo changes in "Of One Skin" - the guitarist did his best the channel Stuart Adamson's beautiful guitar lines. Overall it was definitely worth the money.
