Clash Issue Launch Announced

Featuring Swimming, Beaty Heart and Clout!

Clash Magazine are proud to announce a launch party for our upcoming 67th issue featuring Swimming, Beaty Heart and Clout!

Hooking up with top notch London venue the Lexington, Clash are planning to bring you the best in emerging music once a month. Hooking up with fresh young things to launch our latest issue, the party is set to launch with a show at the London venue on October 6th.

Toasting our 67th issue – details of which are being kept under lock and key – Clash Magazine will be joined by three very different acts…

Swimming are a Nottingham based five piece whose electro-pop has a distinctly DIY feel. Shying away from the fake glamour of the charts, the band have chosen to produce and engineer their own material – when not designing their own artwork of course.

A string of singles have alerted fans to their talent, with the five piece blending ethereal production with a breezy falsetto. Think Wild Beasts crossed with Talk Talk and you’d be close, although in reality Swimming occupy a place all of their own.

Elsewhere on the bill, Londoners Beaty Heart are sure to impress. The quartet have distinct psychedelic traces, with early cuts revealing hints of Animal Collective running through their material.

Currently on tour with The Rapture, Beaty Heart’s improvisational approach means that each show becomes an entity in itself.

Completing the bill are Essex quintet Clout! Almost impossible to label, the group have that teenage habit of not realising where genre lines have been built – as a result, their material sits somewhere between Krautrock, hip hop and the sparse, percussive end of dubstep.

Taking place on October 6th, the Clash DJs will be on hand to keep the night flowing while early arrivals will waltz home with a crisp new copy of Issue 67 under their arm.
