As a band starting out, everyone is looking to attach a label to you. Once appropriately tagged you can be neatly packaged up and sent off to market. The snag is, when you become affiliated with one genre it becomes less acceptable to experiment with others. Saturday Night Gym Club seem determined to avoid such a fate; ‘How To Build A Life Raft’, their debut EP guides the listener down ambient, pop, glitch, modern and eighties avenues adeptly dodging gaping pigeonholes along the way.

Since their emergence proper towards the end of last year there have been few plaudits that Antlered Man have not been offered. For an arty yet punky noise rock group / thing, this London based quartet have picked up more attention than one would be quite within their rights to expect. Partly this is because of their genre-busting sound. Despite taking clear influence from the likes of American legends Queens of the Stone Age, Melvins and Mr. Bungle, Antlered Man also sound completely a product of the grubby underbelly of London and are all the better for it.
