The Monochrome Set: Thurs 12th April

Posted by Stuart Huggett

Arch post-punkers The Monochrome Set have been flickering on and off since striding out of the same London art school melee that birthed Adam & The Ants. Their classic run of early singles included the driving ‘He’s Frank (Slight Return)’, revived for Norman Cook’s Brighton Port Authority project with guest vocalist Iggy Pop making a prescient puppet appearance in the video. Reunited once again on new album ‘Platinum Coils’, the Set swing into town for an incredibly rare show. (SH)

His huge archive of magazines, flyers and vinyl is either an invaluable research tool or a bloody pain. He occasionally runs tinpot record label Dizzy Tiger, DJs sporadically and plays live even less.
