DOOM GONG - we’re so excited for this one!

Formed in 2022 in Louisville, Kentucky, U.S.A. by 7 music school nerds, DOOM GONG has made a name for themselves internationally with their own home-baked genre, Denim Psych - a hodgepodge of psychedelic rock, jazz fusion, bedroom pop, lo-fi, contemporary classical music, as well as blood, sweat, and a lot of denim. Having only released their first two LP’s in 2023 (DOOM GONG and Dream Behemoth, DOOM GONG has quickly become a mainstay of the psych scene in the U.S. and abroad, performing their enigmatic and seamless live shows alongside the likes of Amyl and the Sniffers, The Black Angels, BADBADNOTGOOD, Allah Las, King Buffalo, Bass Drum of Death, Death Valley_ Girls, HOLY WAVE, Gustaf, Ron Gallo and many others at music festivals including Treefort Music Fest (US), Sled Island (CAN), Purple City Music Festival (CAN), Big Stomp (US) Back Alley Ballyhoo (US), Wagner Subaru Outdoor Experience (US), Swampfest (CAN), Expansion Psychedelic Festival (US), Moonshiners Ball (US), and Jorts Fest (US). In 2024, DOOM GONG launched their international presence, completing two summer tours consisting of 24 shows across the eastern United States and Canada with immense reception. Soon after, the denim assemblage partnered with Romanus Records to produce vinyl of their debut album - all presses were sold out within an hour of its release.

LORELLE MEETS THE OBSOLETE

Originally from Guadalajara and now based in Ensenada, Baja California, Lorelle Meets The Obsolete formed in 2011 around the core duo of Lorena Quintanilla and Alberto González. They quickly caught the attention of the psych scene with their first two albums, On Welfare and Corruptible Faces.

Since signing with UK label Sonic Cathedral in 2013, the band has toured extensively across Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the US. Over the past decade, their sound has gradually evolved from its psychedelic roots toward a more exploratory direction, incorporating analog synths and sonic search reminiscent of bands like Wire. This progression is evident across albums such as Chambers, Balance, De Facto, and Datura. Along the way, they’ve collaborated with artists like Emma Anderson (Lush), Dälek, and Pye Corner Audio, and have earned fans in the likes of Henry Rollins and Iggy Pop.

NEW SHOW!!!

TOMAR CONTROL

is a hardcore band from Lima, Peru, active since 2014. With roots in late ’80s and ’90s hardcore, they deliver a raw, direct sound combined with a vital political voice. Their lyrics address feminism, P.M.A. (Positive Mental Attitude), veganism, straight edge values, and an uncompromising rejection of all forms of discrimination.

The band have toured extensively in South America (Argentina, Chile, Brazil), North America (Mexico), and Europe. Their debut Lo Que Llevamos Dentro (2015) and follow-up Nunca Más Callar (2019, Amok Records) established them as one of the most urgent bands in Latin American hardcore.

PINK BREATH OF HEAVEN

Some words on Paige Kennedy’s headline at Clwb on Friday:

it’s not very on brand for me to show my face at a pop gig but believe it or not i don’t only enjoy screaming men. anyway, friday night at clwb, thought this one would be rammed given the recent boom of paige’s music with their undoubtable banger “lingerie model” taking over my instagram feed for a good 4 months.

of course i walk in as parcs take to stage, grab myself a red stripe & prop myself against clwb’s load bearing pillar. as if being submerged into ethereal jelly, parcs let you detangle all that friday stress with soothing sounds of pure serenity.

the peace was soon shattered as paige kennedy enters wearing the same colour makeup as i see when i stare into the sun for too long. almost as if someone had thrown james acaster a guitar, paige delivers constant witty comedy throughout their performance. if you’re going to ramble on between songs, this is exactly how it should be done. making the most of a sparce crowd paige ignites the audiences smiles with banger after banger on a dingy friday evening. last time i saw them was at the moon for swn 2023? i think? either way their performance has come one hell of a way.
