Description
Acme Live in association with All At Sea Records presents:
DIRECT HIT! - From Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA in their FIRST EVER UK SHOW. Part Ramones, part Andrew WK, Direct Hit! are energetic, raucous pop-punk at its very best. They explode into Swindon as part of their first UK tour in support of the awesome, 'Domesplitter' album (available now from All At Sea Records: http://www.allatsea.bigcartel.com/artist/direct-hit)
"The four-piece from Milwaukee have created a punk rock album which ranges from a major assault on the ears with 'Snickers Or Reece's (Pick Up The Pieces)' to a calmer sing-a-long track in 'Living Dead'. But the one thing every track has in common is the passion and enthusiasm to get a crowd up off their feet." - Alter The Press!
F**CK YOU! GET PUMPED!

SLAGERIJ - Swindon's very own six-legged skanking Ska-Punk Kings. Always an absolutely storming live band, Slagerij don't know how to give anything but 100%. One of the best live acts in the South West, if you've never seen them before, get along to this. If you have seen them before, you've probably already bought your ticket.

THE PRICEDUIFKES - Belgium's finest punk rockers deliver fast and snotty tunes in the vein of Screeching Weasel or the Queers. Three chords and a f**k you attitude, this is 100 mph at its purest. With a release in the Uk out on SquintyJoe Records.

SCYTHES - Virtually a Swindon Hardcore supergroup, Scythes produce intense, dense and totally unforgettable heavy hardcore. Featuring current members of The Cold Harbour, this is one band you have to witness in 2012.
