Dinosaur Pile-Up
Tuesday 11th June at The Fighting Cocks
In the week that their new album is released, Dinosaur Pile-Up play at The Fighting Cocks. The fourth full length album from the excellent fuzzy punk-rockers is titled Celebrity Mansions. Mixing up big, melody-driven alt-rock songs with the energy of in-your-face punk. We're big fans and we're really excited to have them back in Kingston. DPU have long been talked about as one of British music’s most consistently exciting outfits, with singer/guitarist Matt Bigland forging a reputation as one of rock music’s finest songwriters. So having spent the best part of a decade building a fiercely loyal fanbase, and a stellar live reputation, now’s the time to prove it. Times TBC but we expect doors to be at 8:00pm. CD/ticket is £14 post-paid, and other formats and combos will be available. PLEASE NOTE: If you choose Collect In-store as your delivery option your full order, including tickets, will need to be collected from our shop rather than from the venue. The Fighting Cocks is an 18+ venue. Please bring photo ID. The Fighting Cocks is at 56 Old London Road, Kingston, KT2 6QA

The Amazons
Thursday 30th May at New Slang, 9:00pm (18+)
Just after the release of their new album, The Amazons play at New Slang.
Following on from their incredible 2017 self-titled debut full length, the band are back with their second offering of huge rock 'n' roll tunes with plenty of riffs in the form of Future Dust. We're super excited to hear the new album and their return to New Slang.
“We were searching for a heavier sound and we found it by delving back through the blues,” says singer Matthew Thomson. “From Led Zeppelin, we discovered Howlin’ Wolf and immersed ourselves in his back catalogue. I read Hellfire, the Jerry Lee Lewis biography, and fell in love with the Biblical language that was used to describe his ‘devil music’.
“As much as the songs, it was the stories and characters that we loved. Playing boogie-woogie piano in murky clubs sounds pretty tame now, but back then, it was raw and dangerous. We wanted to capture that with a dirtier, grittier, sexier sound.”
Times TBC but we expect doors at 9:00pm with The Amazons on at 10:30pm.
After the show, it's New Slang as usual where you can expect to hear the likes of Wolf Alice, Circa Waves, Biffy Clyro, The Vaccines, Arctic Monkeys, Catfish & The Bottlemen and many more until 2AM.
CD/ticket is £14 post-paid, and other formats and combos will be available.
New Slang is an over 18s event, and is strict on ID. Please bring photo ID with you on the night, whatever age you are.
New Slang is held at Pryzm, 154 Clarence St, Kingston upon Thames KT1 1QP

The Interrupters
Monday 27th May at Banquet Records, 2:00pm
Admission to this event is via order number, please bring yours with you.
One of our favourite bands of right now, The Interrupters return to Kingston.
There's no greater ska-punk band around, and no greater party than an Interrupters show. So we're delighted they come to ours for an intimate Bank Holiday set. We'll be stocking a Banquet-exclusive colourway of the recent record to coincide with this gig.
The follow-up to 2015’s Say It Out Loud, 'Fight the Good Fight' finds The Interrupters delivering their Two-Tone-inspired, powerfully melodic, punk-fueled sound with more vitality than ever before. With Armstrong and Alge at the helm, Aimee and the Bivona brothers channeled the raw energy of their lives shows by recording almost entirely to tape. “There’s a certain feeling you get from that process that you can’t really get digitally,” says guitarist Kevin. “There’s no overthinking anything—everyone’s got to be fully present and committed. It was definitely high-pressure, but also really fun.”
This gig will be 14+, and probably one of the gigs of the year! Priority will go to anyone who gets the album Fight The Good Fight from us.
Doors for this one will be 2:00pm

Hot Chip
Thursday 20th June at New Slang, 9:00pm
To celebrate the release of their seventh full length album titled A Bath Full Of Ectasy, the acclaimed electronic-indie-poppers Hot Chip return to play at New Slang. A Bath Full of Ecstasy is a fresh, invigorating and essential new chapter in Hot Chip's career, taking in their huge breadth of influence and melody as only Hot Chip can. This is the first time the band have chosen to use outside producers from the offset, working with Philippe Zdar (Cat Power, Beastie Boys, Phoenix, Cassius) and Rodaidh McDonald (The XX, Sampha, David Byrne), and there is a marked dynamism in Zdar’s mixing that brings out the boldness of the songs collected here. The record is a celebration of joy but recognises the struggle it can take to get to that point of happiness. You can hear the pleasure Hot Chip had in creating this album and they want to pass on that feeling to the listener. It is time to get lost in A Bath Full of Ecstasy. Times TBC but we expect doors at 9:00pm with Hot Chip on at 10:30pm. After the show, it's New Slang as usual where you can expect to hear the likes of The 1975, CHVRCHES, Arctic Monkeys, White Lies, FOALS and many more until 2AM. CD/ticket is £17 post-paid, and other formats and combos will be available. New Slang is an over 18s event, and is strict on ID. Please bring photo ID with you on the night, whatever age you are. New Slang is held at Pryzm, 154 Clarence St, Kingston upon Thames KT1 1QP Albums and tickets will be posted separately; the album's release date is 21st June. Regular LP is on double black vinyl. Limited LP is on double 'crystal clear' vinyl and is packaged in alternative artwork.

Hayden Thorpe
Tuesday 28th May at Banquet Records, 6:00pm
In the week that his debut solo album is released, Hayden Thorpe makes a welcoming return to Kingston. You'll recognise him as the former frontman of electro-indie act Wild Beasts, but now he is making his mark with Diviner, his first solo record.
Diviner is a deeply emotional album: lyrically generous in its candid tone and self-awareness, the melodies resonant with sense memory. The album feels like a startling departure from Thorpe’s previous work with Wild Beasts and also unlike anything else being made at the moment.
Throughout the record, Thorpe’s voice is a beacon - paired with weaving piano, ambient guitar drifts and propulsive bass lines - his sound is even more powerfully unfettered than before, as if he’d found a new inner voice, a new way to use his instrument.
In-store Grade B.
Priority will be given to anyone who orders a copy of Diviner from us.
Albums will be posted, tickets are for collection from the shop on the day of the in-store, please bring your order number with you.
