Insensitivecore

Because it’s Scar Awareness Week I thought I’d promote this quality ska-based night (see what I did there? Priceless). It’s happening tonight at the Ferryboat in Norwich and features Sonic Boom Six, Catch-It Kebabs, Mumrah and 3 Day Benda. Doors at

Secondsmile – I Am Not Romeo, You Are Not Juliet

“Secondsmile closely resemble US counterparts‘ Hopesfall, At The Drive-In and Thursday combined with complex structure and striking Refused-esque vocals.” This statement comes straight from the bio over at Big Scary Monsters, and no offence Kev, but I’ve read
