Martial Arts + Honest Work + Blunt Cactus
Martial Arts formed gradually, through playing on bills with other bands, agreeing to pints with strangers met the night before, and an overarching love for new British post-punk. Hailing from across the UK, they developed and refined a sound for 9 months, before beginning to gig across Manchester, to fantastic early reception. Very rarely do you see a group capture the interest of so many people before even one track is made available to the public. There is something special about Martial Arts.
Martial Arts intense post punk has quickly caught the ear of a key few. Shows for Akoustik Anarkhy, So Young Magazine, Speedy Wunderground and Now Wave under their belt the 5 piece have emerged as a must see band in the Manchester underground. Now catch them in Bedford for the first time.
Support from Honest Work (ex- Saloon Dion) – we urge you to go listen to their ‘Horses for Meat’ track – its a stone cold groovie killer and local noiseniks Blunt Cactus
