Electro-rock overload

Posted by Tom on Wednesday, 14 May 2008
Expat Wellingtonian keytar-toting fashionista sexpots Charlie Ash are back in town and playing at Bodega this Saturday. Photobucket There's the usual huge line-up of support acts, including MC Stormtrooper, Trimasterbate and Heat Like Me, who some of you may remember from the recent L.E.D.s gig. They're a little bit Eighties electro and just a little bit late-Nineties techno (not that there's anything wrong with that), and they should complement Charlie Ash's punky lycra-glam just so. But for those who want their rock with a little less glitter and a whole lot more feedback, Saturday night may be better spent at Happy, where Wellington's favourite post-prog-drone-noise outfit The Stumps take on Melbourne's Elise & Jem and Huttite ambient-art-metal superstars Black Boned Angel. If you're undecided and brimming with stamina you might try making it to both: but good luck trying to find an outfit to suit both gigs.
