Description

PlayDead - Ferocious power psych with some popular indie rock nuances tempered by tremendous loud and proud heaviosity...this young trio really do create a marvelous, malevolent noise that belies their tender years. Smasheroo.

One-Eyed Disco - hook tastic edgy indie-punk, great stuff it is too that positively bristles with energy . There's a bit of an Arctic Monkeys vibe without really sounding like em. Fab.

Heavy Salad - making sunny side up summery psych/indie pop that puts you in mind of Boo Radleys, Teardrop Explodes and The Webb Bros- pretty classy this. Nice bit of edge to it too.

Crushed By Pimps - A fusion of post-Punk, prog rock and electronic music blended together to make upbeat repetitive melodies with dark underlying messages. Have a rather tasty tune called 'Thurston Less'! Arf... which does actually sound a little bit like a fired-up Sonic Youth ...great stuff.

Description

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.
