Bloodloss
Nekkrosis
- 'Schizophrenic groove-orientated death metal from the heart of the midlands
Slay That Dog
Judgment Day
- Fast, loud and heavy best describes this four piece Thrash Metal outfit. Regularly
compared to their old school idols these guys rip up the stage with hard
hitting lyrics and relentless speed. Think Exodus, Overkill, Sepultura and
Slayer all hammered together to produce an intense slaughtering machine
and you have JUDGMENT DAY. With their energetic and brutal live performance
these guys are not to be missed.
Bloodloss
- Brutal. Intense. Devastating. They're just words at the end of the day. Describing
Surrey-based Metal group BLOODLOSS is always going to be a difficult affair. With
a stage show to more than rival their hard-hitting American counterparts,
these 5 lads are tearing up the British metal scene with a ferocity that
would put some of their own heroes/influences to shame.
£5 doors open at 7.30pm |

New Town Kings +
Resolution 242 +
Captain Black No Stars +
Last Gang In Town DJ’s
New Town Kings
- Back by popular demand this 9 piece bring their infectious and energetic
brand of 2Tone, ska, reggae and dub back for a triumphant return to the
Man on the Moon. Since releasing their debut album “Sound Of The New Town”
on Do The Dog records the band have had gig and festival crowds across
the UK begging for more. With a new studio recording in the pipeline, the
future promises to be bright for the New Town Kings.
Resolution 242
- Their debut CD out on Do the Dog Records has had some great reviews and
secured them airplay on Radio One’s “The Lock Up”. Resolution 242 have shared
the stage with the likes of Inner Terrestrials, King Blues and Sonic Boom
Six and played the prestigious Rebellion Festival in 2009. They sound great
and they’ve got plenty say. They don’t claim to have the answers, but aim
to raise awareness about important issues that they think need attention
and debate, in the only medium they can… music…so get involved and enjoy!
Captain Black No Stars
- This Norfolk reggae collective have come a long way in short time, gaining
fans across the region with their unique sound inspired by both the Trojan
/ 2Tone sounds and UK Punk rock. They bring the early Clash forays into
Jamaican music to mind but with a contemporary slant. Catch them live on
28th November when they kick off proceedings as the first of 3 great Do
The Dog bands that will have you skanking into the night and beyond!!
Last Gang In Town DJ’s

secondSight
- a five-piece group playing classic British progressive rock music. Think
Peter Gabriel-era Genesis, early-70s Pink Floyd and symphonic Yes. We’re
a covers band, playing a smattering of original material too, and definitely
not a tribute band of lookalikes or soundalikes.

Eye for an Eye
Eye for an Eye
- If I could only use one word to describe local metal band Eye for an Eye,
it would be 'Defiant'. The three piece from Swindon have effortlessly blended
foot-tapping anthems with easily screamable chorus lines to produce something
truly masterful and wholly different to the familiar. With shades of great
'stoner rock' bands like Kyuss and Clutch shining through, these boys take
the rulebook, set it on fire and rub the ashes into their scars. Just as
well, really – these lads are going to be the torch-bearers for the new
age of Swindon music.”

Peacocks +
Shakeout +
Graveyard Johnnys +
Last Gang In Town DJ’s
Peacocks
- Legendary Swiss 3 piece The Peacocks are making a rare Cambridge appearance
as part of their Spring 2010 tour. Having toured extensively over the last
15 years, taking in Japan, Europe and the USA, The Peacocks have played
with numerous bands including Bad Religion, Rancid, Voodoo Glow Skulls
and The Dwarves as well as headlining a stage at the prestigious Rebellion
punk festival. With their unique Rockabilly-infused Punk Rock’n’Roll The
Peacocks continue to belt out great songs and excellent live performances
so don’t miss your chance….It’s Time For The Peacocks!!
Shakeout
- are without a doubt the finest Psycho Rockin' outfit in East Anglia, a
title they truly deserve following a lengthy career that has seen them
share the stage with bands including The Meteors, Guana Batz and King Kurt.
Graveyard Johnnys
- We’ve had to wait a long time since their impressive opening slot for The
Quakes at the Man on the Moon back in 2008, but at last the Graveyard Johnnys
are coming back to Cambridge. Their stunning debut album has been enthusiastically
received by punks, rockers and ‘billies alike and, coupled with their frenetic
live shows, has earned them a great reputation.
