The Misfits

Wednesday, 1 February

O2 Academy Islington, 16 Parkfield Street, Islington, N1 0PS

Live Music: , Punk

One of the all-time greatest and most influential punk bands ever, The Misfits not only laid some of the ground-work for the fast, heavy punk rock that became hardcore, with their love of kitsch horror and wicked sense of style they also pretty much invented horror punk.

Playing the Islington Academy tonight, we reckon this one is going to be pretty busy.
