“Before this show’s over I’m gonna be the new Beth Ditto,” announces appropriately apportioned singer Father Damian from Canadian hardcore punk heroes Fucked Up, as tonight’s bowel-buggering experience begins. No southern-fried soul to right the wrongs here though, this is a scorching smackdown to cleanse the disaffected. Songs like ‘Neat Parts’ and ‘Baiting The Public’ cause crowd euphoria to spill over into casual violence; light fittings and bar stools quickly bite the dust, but everyone’s looking out for one another. Soon after the gig ends, however, a punch-up over a girl ensues and London’s self-obsessed pathos balance is restored.
