Epideme are a bunch of lovely Brighton lads who make a jagged schizoid racket on Jonson family & are good buddies with Lovvers, former SOTW champs. They're offering up a squalling punk rock double header this week. '000-0' has cascading drums collapsing all over the shop, death punk guitars that sound like the strings are getting all tied up in a frantic last dash to closing time, shouty vocals with bursts of hardcore menace and a jerky, wonky sub math rock appeal that makes you reach for the needle over & over. the concept is the dissolving of everything down to base zero, therefore meaning infinity. Flip over for 'Threatenings', with an itchy guitar line leading up to another discordant gutter punk fight, Scratchy, chaotic & nerve jangling. This thrills lots! Go check them live now! The new gods of UK nil-wave rock are here. 7" only on the wonderful Jonson Family

What their label says...
Falling over each other, racing to the end, Huggy Bear/Fall/DC hardcore inspired cosmic slop from these three southcoast dwelling crits. Been going for years, yet only aged Young 0’ Clock. Two songs of jerky get-on-with-it-rock. They’ve played with such acts as Q and not U, Deerhoof, and other trendy U.S ‘acts’ like The Coachwhips along with Part Chimp, Blood Red Shoes (who have sorted the art for this slab), blahblahblah…NOT IMPORTANT. Going out on their 5th UK tour throughout February: Bristol, Portsmouth, Brighton, Glasgow, Stoke, Preston, Oxford, Cambridge, Newcastle + others TBC. Put it this way: Mr. J Peel played them, this is their 2nd single having self financed a debut which along with the aforementioned JP, Huw Stephens also played. This 7” has a pressing of 300. Reviews will be here, there, and everywhere. Radio play could happen, who knows? who listens anymore? Feel the force. If you’ve read this far: YOU WIN.
