Doors 9pm : Entry £2 (£3 after 10.30 pm and free entry to the Castle Rock Club)

 

ManchesterMusic.Co.Uk’s next generation of events follows up CHAIRSMISSING with its next instalments of firebrand rock, visiting bands and deliberate genre bending.

 

The Electric Circus features a mish mash of art, electronica, different cities and headshrinking sounds, but all with one common theme – cutting edge excitement…

 

Continuing our residency at The Castle in Oldham, we’ve thrown our unconditional support to one of the last of Greater Manchester’s permanent satellite live venues. Throw in a £200k refurb, a 10kw rig and one of Manchester’s best sound engineers and you have the regions newest, purpose designed 200 capacity venue.   

 

The venue has enjoyed 10 years as Oldhams premier LIVE MUSIC VENUE. The Castle of Old was the birthplace of the Inspiral Carpets, and witnessed early performances from Oasis, The Stone Roses & erm Northside !!

More recently the venue has seen shows from The Fall, The Chameleons, Puressence, Kasabian, Cash Money, JJ72 plus crazy Rockstar DJ sets from New Order, Clint Boon, Shaun Ryder, The Smiths, and Tim Burgess.

“fiendishly capable howls soar with the best of them but there’s something there’s just that little bit out of the ordinary with the live Kraftwerk rhythms, unnerving jangles and creeping bass lines”

 

 

 

THE PERMISSIVE SOCIETY

perfect rattle-along, stop-start alt. indie, with angular bass lines and rasping guitars. The vocals on "amsterdammed" could take someone's head off, if not the singer's first. The cut-throat shouting, which owes as much to death metal as it does to a birthday party era nick cave, amplifies an already winning formula.
dangerously different and impossible to miss"

THE FLOW

“Epic rock music which got lost down the back of Jimmy Page’s sofa in the early eighties.. Big sounds of a single ethereal guitar swathed in useful effects, backed by a seriously thumping rhythm section is backed with preacher man vocals and angst fuelled anthems which swell like a stormy ocean..”
