SSS

Thanks for coming out! There are people missing from the Last.fm office today. Some didn't survive the moshpit that erupted as SSS brought their flashbomb thrash to our second ever live event at the Old Blue Last on Saturday. We would mourn, but quite frankly weÕre still reeling from an evening of metal mayhem, sci fi drum madness and punishing electro-noise. We took over the Vice pub in East London in the early evening on Saturday, and had to pull the plug in the early hours of Sunday when the police descended to tell us off for being too loud. (They shouldÕve been upstairs when Errorplains kicked off with a wall of FX-pedal noise. Now that was loud.) In between the smashÕnÕgrab metal of SSS and the synth assault of Errorplains, crazy drum maestro Duracell played a rare UK live set. If you havenÕt seen this guy before, he manages to produce entire sets of future-music using just a drum set, trigger machine and a laptop. Never has a man been so sweaty as Duracell was by the time his incredible one-man beat-symphony came to an end. Downstairs was equally rammed, as punters wigged out to our very own Last.fm DJs, and the deck-wrecking moves of Tape Deck, Shitting Fists and People Are Germs. By the end of the night the walls were dripping and bouncers were holding back a multitude outside. Read more about this event
