Bestmate – excellent entertainment that somehow manages to combine Nirvana, The Cure and Dr Feelgood and still sound utterly original. The (seemingly) seven foot tall is quite a presence, and does some wonderful Wilko Johnson duck walking as he off loads his ace Anglo Saxon indie angst.
Frankestra– Hooky alt rock with a nod to Wunderhorse in places but also recalls cult indie band Hope Of The States and shades of The Clash and even The Levellers.
Televised Mind – purveyors of pummelling punky indie with some low slung rocknroll of a Stooges bent and plenty of swagger.
Hailing from the heart of the London scene, Astrocats are an alternative rock outfit defined by raw energy and uncompromising emotional grit. Their debut album, MDMA, serves as a sonic manifesto—a journey through the highs and lows of identity and human vulnerability. Blending introspective songwriting with explosive, high-octane dynamics, the band bypasses the trends to deliver a sound that is as honest as it is electric. Astrocats don’t just play a set; they invite the crowd into a shared experience of catharsis and noise. Great band!!
The Dublin Castle is a legendary pub and music venue located 2 minutes away from Camden Town tube station. It has been run by the same family for over 28 years and features 4 live bands every night as well as a great selection of beers, ciders and wines.
There are DJs after the bands on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and a fabulous jukebox in the front bar if you’re after a more relaxed atmosphere.
But what is it that makes the Dublin Castle the long-standing centre of the indie rock universe? Is it because it’s Madness’ birthplace? Because its stage has been graced by everyone from Blur, through Coldplay, Supergrass, The Killers, The Arctic Monkeys, Billy Bragg, etc? Is it because it was no surprise to see Amy Winehouse behind the bar serving costumers? Or Suggs? (who, mind you, tended to ignore costumers and serve himself) Or is it because far from being just another Camden venue it has established itself as an indie rock institution? The answer is that it’s not only because of its musical heritage that people come to the Dublin Castle, it’s because whilst you enjoy a pint, play some tunes on the jukebox, check out the live bands, get your dancing shoes on for our DJs, chat to our friendly staff or even stage-invade a little, you’re inadvertently being part of this movement the Dublin Castle leads, this cultural legacy. Expect no castle battlements. Just pure rock and roll royalty.
