First Show with the 'Black Box'
We played our first show using a drum machine (our new 'black box') this past Sunday at the Lamplighters in Leicester alongside Tracer AMC and Beg To Differ. As many of you know, our drummer Glenn suffered a shoulder injury, preventing him from playing. Rather than cancel the gig, we programmed his fast, relentless rhythms into the machine. The result was incredibly loud, raw, and robotic—defining a new direction for the band. We wish Glenn a speedy recovery!
