Glasgowbury 2011 - Axis Of
Small But Massive, 7:15pm
Describe in a Tweet: Fun and gritty pop-punk from the North Coast, with an edge.
What Happned: Yes, they may be fast, play furiously, and deliver rough ‘n’ ready punk with a hint of hardcore, but ultimately they’re a fun band with an infectious energy performing live. From the catchy hook on 'We Dine On Seeds' to the fist in the air yelps of 'Port Na Spaigna', it’s admirable how commanding they are of the audience’s attention for such a young band on the main stage.
Goldstar: Getting everyone to sing along with the chorus for a new song, and the band enjoying how Glasgowbury cops on to it immediately. Who needs to know the words when the music is this fast and fun, anyway?
Lost At Sea: Someone taking the suggested title for a new song a bit too seriously (“Let’s call it ‘Circle Pit’, says Niall) when everyone else is trying to have fun. It’s perhaps a bit abrasive on the ears, even if it is what they do best.
Rating: 8/10
