The Skylarks ? fashion their louche indie quirk pop as ?Lounge Punk? and yes, we agree. So pull up a chez longue and fire up the fondu, the James Lasts of rocknroll are in town.

Slow Like A Feeling ? Electronic beats with postpunk nuances, giving us an interesting blend of ?80s sounds with hard-hitting guitar accompaniment as well as some unique/nostalgic vocals.

Great Northern Pike ? Great name for starters?and some rather ace chugging math rock that references Sonic Youth at their experimental best or And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead?enigmatic, youthful, challenging.

Jodie Brown ? female solo artist with band?a lot going on here, breathy punk tood, spacey art rock passages, moody blues psych with edgy, steamy sections?great work, all topped off with a beastly angst and sass ridden bellow, part Siouxsie part bluesy?.interesting artist.

Twin Noir- deliciously deviant dark wave German outfit.

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.
