ANTIPOP'S FESTIVE FUCK-UP

It’s the question that has plagued mankind for aeons: ever wondered what Motorhead would sound like with TWO Lemmys? Wonder no more, weary traveller, for the monolithic Super Fast Girlie Show is the answer to that little brainbuster. Pay attention now. After the release of this year’s whip-crack of an LP, All Hooves & Cucumber, the former two-piece replaced a drummer and added a second bassist. The result is a hell of a noise that is finally starting to get them noticed. Their appearance at this coming Friday’s Antipop showcase at Mello Mello, Liverpool, will ease the transition from a great first year into one loaded with promise.

Antipop come with a simple message: “Fuck Xmas.” They’re planning to fuck it hard. Without a condom. Friday night’s show offers more than some fat guy in a red suit ever could. Revenge Of The Psychotronic Man make with the hideously too-good-to-be-true stuff. Their 2012 release, Shattered Dreams Parkway, has a fine line in odd humour, righteous anger, dust-clogged punk and tales of a life spent on the margins. This festive Pentagram O’ Piss is glued together with the cheeky Vamos and the carefree Roots To Nowhere. Sneaking in through the tunnels are Gunpowder Plot, whose bio has a nice Burroughsian tint to it. Jump aboard, flatfoots.

Doors 8pm, £4 adv&otd.
