Just 36 hours after God Damn brought their inaugural Pit Party to a ferocious finish, cult underground label Fluffer Records have recovered enough to announce the headliners for their December outing.
Nottingham quartet HECK are next to perform in the round of the Pit Parties’ intimate 360-degree arena – essentially bang in the middle of a secret warehouse, completely enveloped at close quarters by their rabid fanbase.
Undaunted by the prospect, HECK are quite used to intimidation and stand-offs – earlier this year the thrash metal traffickers were forced to change their original name, Baby Godzilla, at the ‘insistence’ of the Japanese film company that own the rights to the name of the large, fictional city-destroying monster.
Wreaking their own damage on the eardrums of East London, HECK will close the second event on December 12th at a location TBA, alongside Brighton’s monstrous duo Shitwife and Hull’s finest speed garage punks, No Nothings.
The second in a series of five seriously limited edition monthly showcases of storming unsigned talents, this follows a storming first instalment where Baby In Vain demonstrated why they're the subject of such hype and God Damn underlined their status as one of the most visceral live experiences in the country.
“To have HECK play in such a small space with this kind of set up will be nothing short of phenomenal,” reckons Fluffer Records founder, Al Brown. “It’ll be hard to beat the first Pit Party, but this line-up might just do it.”
Get your tickets quick, though – there are only 150 available, so if you want to be within touching distance of the loudest, fiercest new bands out there, head over now to Dice.FM and get yours.
The Fluffer Records Pit Parties are sponsored by Three, Marshall Headphones, Dr. Martens, and Signature Brew, a local brewery who’ll be supplying patrons with their specially-created HECK Ale, made in collaboration with the band, so get there nice and early.
