Why You Should Buy Monday Tickets To All Points East

Goat Girl 


As the anticipation builds for Goat Girl’s new album tour, the south London bred quartet play at All Points East, and what a place to get started!


The new album “On All Fours”, produced by Dan Carey (Fontaines D.C. Squid, Black Midi) came out January of this year and they will be showcasing it on the North Arena at 4pm just after Working Mens Club. 



Bombay Bicycle Club


Bombay Bicycle Club is set to play All Points East on Monday at 7.25pm on the West Stage. Their most recent album “Everything Else Has Gone Wrong” peaked at no.4 in the uk charts in 2020 and boy are we excited to finally hear it live! We have not heard much in the way of new music from these guys other than their latest single release “Terrapin Station (ft. Flyte)” which was out May of this year. So we are hopefully anticipating some new tracks they’ve been rumoured to be working on. Only time will tell, we’ll have to see on Monday!




Caribou


The Canadian born electronic producer Dan Snaith, otherwise known as Caribou will be performing on the East Stage on Monday at 7:15pm. His chilled electronic beats are the perfect accompaniment to sunset on a beautiful summers day at Victoria Park. His tenth record “Suddenly”, released in February of 2020 was met with universal acclaim and an album of remixes there of, was released March of this year.

MONAKIS - NEW TRACK - 'FAKE NEWS'

In the age of Trump, Covid and Brexit it’s hard to escape the feeling that we’re inching ever closer to some sort of chaotic crescendo. It’s an exhausting time for a lot of people, and alt-punk trio Monakis are none too happy about this mess. Their new track ‘ Fake News ’ is the Brighton band’s second single. Monakis are not keen to shy away from their outrage as the track erupts instantly at breakneck speed. Most recent bands commonly see fights break out at the gigs, but Monakis sound like a gig broke out at a fight. “Respect yourself,” frontman James Porter repeats throughout the track. It’s an unhinged mantra, one delivered with a charismatic snarl.  The sound production on this track is something that I noted right away. It does everything that it needs to do. Modern punk wannabes have a tendency to apply a sort of glimmer and shine to their sound, something which more often than not works to round off the jagged edges that the band have spent so long sharpening. This is not the

The Return

Well then, what a week that was. Many of you will have noticed that this page has been collecting some cobwebs for some time now. I have to apologise for that. Over the lockdown periods we lost something very dear to us all: live music. With this, my inspiration to write had significantly diminished - until this week. Monday night was filled with old friends and wholesome music, it was a well needed trip to the Windmill. This was followed on Saturday with a trip across the river to a park in Crystal Palace for a day of hard hitting tunes, riptide crowds and most of all dirty baselines.  That week reminded me why I wanted to write about music. The Windmill in Brixton is a personal favourite for us at ScumFiles and it was sorely missed.  On Monday I was treated to a night made up of three great acts: Zac Lawrence and The Hate, Sasha and the Shades, headlined by Ideal Husband. All of which contained one or more close friends. Many of you will know that it’s rather cosy venue and most nigh

ALIEN CHICKS SINGLE RELEASE @ THE WINDMILL BRIXTON

Alien Chicks where set to play their first gig after their single release “cowboy”. The venue of choice for their endeavour was there Windmill Brixton, and what a place to do it! I haven’t ventured to the Windmill for a fair few months and to be honest with you, I didn’t realise how much I missed the place. As the anticipation built, we walked up Blenheim Gardens and the topic of conversation was full of bands I’ve seen here in their early days; Goat Girl, Lynks, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, Squid and Deadletter just to name a few and how I had the same feeling walking up this street as I do now for Alien Chicks.  We bust through the door and where met by the smell of old dry vomit and the sound of thumping punky bass, and I knew I was home… I first met Alien Chicks a few months ago and was blown away with their performance. After interviewing them I was very exited to see where they would end up next, and here I am at their sold out, headline gig at the windmill awaiting the re
