WE CAME FROM THE NORTH, BANNERMAN'S, EDINBURGH, NOVEMBER 14 2021

A real mixed bag, this one. A charity event at Bannerman's featuring local Post-rock, post-metal, and regular metal bands rising cash for mental health charities.


Line-up:

WE CAME FROM THE NORTH: Top class post-rock, heftier than many metal bands. Apologies for Iain's unfortunate use of the 'man-bun'





CODESPEAKER: Post-metal/post-hardcore mash up, with tonight's promoter, Duncan Mountain of RED CRUST filling in on bass. Duncan doesn't play bass.





HAMMER: Heavy metal.With a name like that, who'd've guessed?






RAZOR SHARP DEATH BLIZZARD: Punky metal.Definitely not Tory voters. Oddly, there's no video for them at this gig.







ANOMOS: 'Groove infused Deathcore'. Whatever THAT is.
