Magik Markers + Johnny Saw Horses
The Grosvenor, 17 Sidney Road, Stockwell, SW9 0TP
Inspired by no wave and SST era hardcore, experimental Connecticut based punks Magik Markers are known as much for their free rocking sound as they are for their stream-of-consciousness approach to music-making.
A cauterwauling, cacophonous assault of noise, their recent release 'Balf Quarry' has seen them smooth the rough edges a bit, by ramping up their experimental tendencies to new and stranger heights. Here's hoping they bust out a Glockenspiel solo when they take on the Grosvenor tonight.
