Acid Box Promotions summon the return of the devilish Death Valley Girls... Saturday 2nd March Haunt Live 19:00-22:00 Tickets £8adv / £10otd 14+ Death Valley Girls NEW ALBUM "DARKNESS RAINS" OUT NOW! It's been a while since we've had these witches and warlock in Brighton, but we're delighted to welcome their long-awaited return! The group feels less like a band and more like a travelling caravan. At their core, vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Bonnie Bloomgarden and guitarist Larry Schemel channel Death Valley Girls' modern spin on Fun House's sonic exorcisms, early ZZ Top's desert-blasted riffage, and Sabbath's occult menace. Their relentless touring schedule means that the remainder of the group is rounded out by whichever like-minded compatriots can get in the van. On their third album Darkness Rains, bassist Alana Amram, drummer Laura Harris, and a rotating cast of guests like Shannon Lay, The Kid (Laura Kelsey) and members of The Make Up, The Shivas, and Moaning help elevate the band from their rogue beginnings to a communal ritualistic musical force. On the surface level, Death Valley Girls churn out the hypercharged, in the red, scuzzy rock every generation yearns for, but there is a more subversive force percolating beneath the surface that imbues the band with an exhilarating cosmic energy. Saint Agnes Psych-rock four-piece Saint Agnes have created a unique cinematic sound and a rock 'n' roll Gothic image to match. The Telegraph This is Tarantino/Lynch style, warped, twisted psychedelic, Western inspired music that at moment rocks hard, heavy and Southern, and then the next drifts off into the desert, dazed by the scorching sun, dehydration, hallucinations and talking snakes territory.
