Weekly Agenda: April 8 – April 14
Monday 8 April: The Ataris (£14.00).
The Ataris, doubtlessly the biggest group The Joiners lodges this month, is an alternative rock band with punk touches led by the American songwriter Kristopher Roe. They have been playing since 1995 –that’s 18 years– and have taken influences from the most important heavyweights of the scene like Green Day, The Offspring or Blink-182. So don’t miss out!
Wednesday 10 April: Circle Of Contempt (£7.00).
Directly from Finland, Circle Of Contempt will bring their best progressive metal on Wednesday. Formed in 2006 under the name Thrust Moment, the band combines powerful and aggressive rhythms "into one unstoppable unit". Their first album, Artifacts in Motion, was recorded in 2009 and is available in most of the musical platforms.Â
Friday 12 April: Bulletproof Donkey (£6.00).
Bulletproof Donkey is an alternative rock band formed in Southampton with more than two years of experience. The foursome mix influences from artists as opposite as Dream Theater and Skrillex, as well as other like Muse or Everything Everything. Bulletproof Donkey can play from acoustic, slow songs with piano basis to other heavier stuff with electronic influences.
Saturday 13 April: Mintsouth: Road To Blissfields (£6.00).
Southampton –The Joiners in this case– will have the opportunity again to decide what band deserves to win a place at the Blissfields Festival this summer. There will be a change to get tickets for it as well! We will count on Science of Eight Limbs as special guest and Skymarshal, Woven Bird, The Harlequin and Brother Goose as candidates.
Saturday 14 April: Masked Intruder (£5.00).
Masked Intruder define themselves as "the best pop-punk band you hope never gets out of prison" characterized by their vestment: they all wear a mask. That's probably why their names are, according to their website, Blue, Green, Yellow and Red. Masked Intruder take influences from bands like Broken Hearts or The Criminal Justice System, and will be supported by Frighting Fiction, River Jumpers, Watch Commande and Plus More.
