Broken Oath, Black Channels, Sunset Squad - Balcony Dundee, 30/May/08

I'm sure another band played this but no photos. Possibly Inches From The Mainland.

So we'll start with Sunset Squad, this was the first time I'd actually seen them, I thought they rocked but the bass player had his bass practically up round his chin which was really off putting. Potter was drunk and entertaining, so there were hugs all round...

Black Channels are 3 parts Allergo and 2 parts Mesa Verde, both were/are shit hot bands. Black Channels were stunning. Manic screamo noise, singer Matt is like a mini tornado screaming round the room, climbing and jumping all over the place and the entire set was done in about 15-20 minutes and I was just left feeling slightly concussed by the impact of it all.

Last on were Broken Oath, metallic heavy hardcore from Glasgow. They were one man down as guitarist Steve had to stay late at school or something. I believe he's a teacher and not been held back a good few years...
They were crushing anyway with Lee non-stop moshing as she screamed her way through the set. F'n great.
Sadly Broken Oath are no more.
