Extra Life was formed in 2007 as the main vehicle for New York-based guitarist/ composer/ singer, Charlie Looker. The music is a fusion of aggressive math rock, dark dramatic pop, modern classical, and ancient liturgical music. Looker was a founding member of NY noise-chamber outfit Zs, and of industrial metal band Psalm Zero.

Their fifth album, The Sacred Vowel had a line-up including members of Kayo Dot, Secret Chiefs 3, and Time of Orchids. This record saw Extra Life venturing deeper into cinematic string orchestration and electronic sound design. Perfect for sitting back and letting the music carry you away.

Sans Froid "Intellectual Bristol based art-rockers" who "deliver a cerebral and immersive experience"! Progressive, piano led art rockers, who have been garnering some rave reviews off the back of their Hello, Boil Brain album and a swarth of live shows. "Currently the best band in Bristol", according to the guitarists best mate. High praise indeed if you know him!

MXLX makes his semi regular appearance at The Cube, and as usual we have no clue as to what he will be performing. His last album was recorded in a church, and is self described as "vertical drone t'wards heaven", which does actually make sense. Either way, it's always a treat hearing hearing his latest writings. Bring ear plugs (we will have some at the bar).
