Throwing this out to the weirdo Hive Mind: does anyone have a copy of the Godz’ Third Testament on LP or CD? Is there any chance you could share a hi-res scan or photo of the front and rear sleeves? Need them for a thing…

PICTURE OF HEALTH + ZENNEROES + DUNWICH BELLS - Fri 23rd Jan @ The Blue Moon, Cambridge Easing into the new year with some new-ish local folks. A triple bill of echoey fuzz-post-punk, haunted violin and electronic loops, and undulating guitar weaving. crushingdeath.com/picture-of-h...

LANDE HEKT + EMMA KUPA - Fri 10th Apr @ NCI Centre, Cambridge Heartfelt and unshuttered powerpop that strips back the bombast you might sometimes associate with all of that. Immediate and arresting tunes from the same path as The Replacements, The Pastels, etc... crushingdeath.com/lande-hekt-e...

EARTHBALL - Sun 19th Apr @ The Blue Moon, Cambridge. Sprawling, zoned-out jams of wild horns, freely crunching guitars, syrupy beats, unrestrained fx, and amorphous vocalisations. crushingdeath.com/earthball/

Cheers to everyone who came to or was part of CD&GXX the other weekend. A total musical triumph if you ask anyone who was there. Short form of bluesky makes a full list of thanks a pain, so go here for full list of appreciation. www.instagram.com/p/DQ7IiNxDHd...

The Breedling from the beer garden at @crushingdeathcb.bsky.social 10th anniversary get down in Cambridge at the weekend...

@familydrone.bsky.social at @crushingdeathcb.bsky.social 10th anniversary celebrations in Cambridge at the weekend. Friends raved about their incendiary gigs when I lived in London, but I've only just now managed to see them. That drumming in the round, noise jazz doom experimentation...

Fri 7th-Sun 9th Nov: CAMBRIDGE CD&GXX Tomorrow night I will be opening up this weekend of festivities at the NCI, Holland St with my own self-designated 20th Anniversary gig. See you there:

CD&GXX is almost upon us and the timetable is now sorted - whip through the slides for those important details. Times always subject to change, so get there early and stay til the end as it's all gold.

This is what I'm doing on Sunday. It'll be a belter.

Straight outta Llanfairfechan, Edwin Stevens previously inhabited guises including The Web Of Lies and Irma Vep as vessels for his singularly inscrutable songworld creation. In stories that are equal parts profane and profound Stevens reveals a self-deprecating take on the absurdities of humanity.

Little update for you. Four gigs upcoming, get yr tickets early. See you around yeah?

CD&GXX // DIY noise wrecking crew Sly & The Family Drone have spent over a decade rejecting stages, exclusivity, and their own personal safety to create epiphinal noise experiences.

Ooh! Get yr Cambridge tix here: wegottickets.com/f/14202

365 party-punks Cowtown have been a source of top spudcore for over two decades. Loved by everyone in the know they bring positive vibes at breakneck speed. Needlessly fun live, cramming countless good times into 150 second tunes at 150 mph, Cowtown keep it to the point, on point, all the time.

CD&GXX // @immersion_hq WTF?? It's only Colin Newman from the seminal Wire coming to the Blue Moon with his long-running partnership with Malka Spigel of Minimal Commpact. Immersion prides itself on a diversity in approach and an ability to be both self-contained and a vehicle for collaboration.

CD&GXX // aya The relentlessly experimental aya create journeys through extreme electronics, crunching percussion, harsh bass, and confrontational confessional. Through deep dissections of soundsystems, mutated by hardcore catharsis she explores the power of experience on the physical body.

The Horse play tribute to big men in the box in the gentlest fashion. See them on the Fri night of CD&GXX at the NCI Centre. youtu.be/tmj_ae3Cr6g?...

Cambridge tickets here: wegottickets.com/f/13915 It'll be a corker!

Cowtown are playing a festival put on by the good people at @crushingdeathcb.bsky.social

7th-9th Nov 2025: Cambridge Crushing Death & Grief 20th Anniversary Weekender Fourth line from the top y'all:

Cheers to the fine folks at @thequietus.com for this seal of approval!

CD&GXX Rattle is an exploration into subtle rhythmic fluctuations, tonal space, and minimal melodics. Their setup of two singing drummers seems unlikely, but Rattle use the limitations of their arrangement to create pieces of textural percussion and threading sublime melodies through the gaps.

CD&GXX // NECRO DEATHMORT Across the 2010s, the prolific duo created a significant and compelling library of heavy electronics, delighting in changing tack repeatedly, making pigeonholing nigh on impossible. Slabs of cosmic misery meet collapsed dancefloor throbbings and becalmed synths.

Blurring the lines between performance art and art rock, Shake Chain toy with and befuddle the audience, tumbling into the crowd in ways that induce unease. Absurdist skewerings of the mediocore are driven home by a musical battering ram. Unhinged thrillsfor the terminally paradoxical.

It's less than a month til our 20-year extravagance. What a line up. What a bargain. What are you waiting for? wegottickets.com/f/13915

Tonight! Rough times Doors 7:30 Nye Jones 7:45 Lash/Joynes 8:30 Tashi Dorji 9:15 Advance tickets available for a bit or pay on the door.

Magically springy new album out today from Immersion - aka Colin Newman (Wire) & Malka Spigel (Minimal Compact) @immersionhq.bsky.social @swimhq.bsky.social @malkaspigel.bsky.social
