The Fly
36-38 New Oxford Street
London, United Kingdom
Elle Milano & Untitled Musical Project bring their Art-Punk Party to London Town.
Elle Milano have garnered sustained praise from the independent music press; sporting a calculated cynicism of the inescapable clichés of industry-manufactured popular culture and the shallow consumerist attitudes of the information age, but also of the British indie rock scene and pretentious, flippant, student culture. With an edgy angular sound with a melodic pop influence, featuring sharp rhythms, sometimes spoken, sometimes yelped or screamed vocals and melodic bass-lines, they are a band not to be missed!

Untitled Musical Project are a freshfaced threesome from Birmingham who bring you punk in its original, snotty form, smartened up and spat back into your grotty parents faces. Let them show you their land of wicked temptation, just don't expect to ever want to come back. It's not often you come across a band that can combine a punk aesthetic with cutting Widean-esque insight. Untitled Musical Project make it look effortless.

Support comes in the form of the intercontinental Applicants - a band so riotous, so punk rock and so endearing as to be impossible. With a fondness for fake blood and liver-destroying quantities of booze, and that’s just on the bus to the the gig. Bring your own serviettes - it’s going to get messy.

All this played under the roof of The Fly, a fantastic, contemporary and comfortable venue catering for the musically thirsty in the heart of London’s West End.
...You would be abser-bloody mental to miss this.
