The Arlo?s ? the apostrophe is all their?s coz they are of The Arlo innit. And of good hearty rock stock too?with several impressive releases on streaming, and something about them of a more rocked up, street fightin? Wedding Present?quite a David Gedge like vocal. Banging rhythms and a rocking indie meets dark country vibe. Good work Men of The Arlo.

The Issues ? these Devonian punkers really tore us a new one when they wound up playing a Saturday night almost by accident a few weeks back! Great witty vibes in the songwriting, and plenty of punch in the punk assault, tempered as it is with a few more considered slacker pop passages. Another tiptop combo then.

Refuge ? Funk infused rock in that early R.H.C.P manner, albeit via a more classic rock sound.

The Bipolar Rollers -Wonky but engaging indie with echoes of The Stranglers and Beefheart, but shot through with the sinister energy of Fat White Family, and ca va bien, noir is le coleur Jean Paul.

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.
