ABOUT THIS EVENT
Barnsley's beat-up venue hosts a raucous night of Arctic-themed indie perfection.
When the Arctic Monkeys are too polished for your tastes, the Antarctic Monkeys are here to fill that bracing, lo-fi void. These four lads from Barnsley are about to tear the roof off The Birdwell Venue with their blast of ragged, fuzzed-out indie rock that'll have you dancing even as your eardrums throb. The intimate, grungy space is the perfect backdrop for their shambling, visceral sound — like the Strokes getting lost in a Yorkshire blizzard. Grab a pint at the scruffy bar, find a spot near the crumbling stage, and get ready for an unforgettable night. Just make sure to take the train from Barnsley station, as parking can be a nightmare around this place. At £20 a ticket, it's a proper steal for a band this ready to melt some faces.
