Armitage Shanks’ raw, irreverent brand of garage punk has gained a devoted following since they released their debut ‘Do You Want Some Fuckin’ Shirts Off Or What (with Billy Childish on vocals) way back in 1993.
Debut album ‘Takin’ The Piss’ soon followed, and six studio albums, thirteen singles, a live LP from The Hope and Anchor and a best of album later, there’s no brakes on the Armitage Shanks battle bus. Don’t miss this opportunity to them in all their unapologetic glory.
Support comes from CRABS, who will be taking a day trip up to the capital to bring you the angry sound of middle-aged Margate.
Documenting the mundanity of their seaside lives, CRABS’ tales of gentrification, Victorian fixer-uppers, dry robes, fake rock and campervans arrive on a wave of snapping punk riffs and the nagging doubt that you might be exactly what you’re railing against.
So mark your calendars and get ready to experience a night of punk rock glory at The Hope and Anchor on 23rd May. Tickets are likely to sell out FAST.
