The Membranes are an influential 80’s UK post punk band who recently reformed for the ATP festivals in the UK at the request of firstly My Bloody Valentine and then Shellac.
The gigs went so well that the band have recorded a brand new album, Dark Matter / Dark Energy, which is builds on their performance at the Universe Explained gig last year where Higgs Boson scientists explained the universe before The Membranes took to the stage!
They are still inspired by punk rock but the new music weaves noise, feedback, discord, melody, free jazz, dub, dark- dub, free punk, heavy rhythms, orchestras, percussion, death to trad rock noise and freedom into a unique whole.
Support comes from Inca Babies and local post punk heroes Kill Committee.
Brought to Reading in association with Darklands.
Tickets £13 advance, £15 on the door
