Dead and Buried is the UK's first, premier and leading [contemporary] Deathrock clubnight.
The idea behind Dead and Buried is similar to that of US and German clubs such as 'Release the Bats' [LA]and the Drop Dead Festival [NYC], Pagan Love Songs, Under Cover of Darkness and the Gothic Pogo Party [Germany].
Dead and Buried is a night that attracts those who enjoy old school Goth, Punk and New Wave music but play quite different music to most “Generic Goth” clubs today. Truly "the underground of the underground" - the real alternative."
Dead and Buried is NOT a 'generic Goth' clubnight
The DJ's play a mix of music ranging from:
Deathrock, Old School Goth,HorrorPunk, Electropunk, Gothabilly + Graveyard Garage, Post Punk & Dark Indie, 80's NDW, Minimal and New Wave.
We *DO NOT* play any Techno, Contemporary Industrial/EBM or Metal of any description
Dead and Buried's resident DJ:
DJ Cavey Nik and we have regular quality guest DJs most months.
The club was founded by DJ Cavey Nik and is organised, hosted and promoted by him with the help of a few close and reliable friends.
At Dead and Buried we aim to educate and entertain the customers. We are prepared to take risks. Dead and Buried is not a sit down "social club" and we want people to PARTY and DANCE!
We strive to be different and at the same time accessable to all who are open-minded enough to try us out! Cavey Nik loves the Dead and Buried regulars [Dabers] for their love of cool music, style, attitude and musical open-mindedness!
CAVEY NIK's Myspace is here:

THE RETURN OF THE BAT
Specimen will bring their special brand of glam mayhem, The Batcave to London again.
After last year’s wildly-successful 25th anniversary Batcave event, The Batcave returns to its original spawning ground of London’s West End on Sunday July 19 for another night of blasphemy, lechery and blood.
Specimen (Fresh from a fantastic show at Leipzig’s Waves Gotik festival), the original Batcave instigators will headline the lurid frolics at the Embassy Club, (29 Old Burlington St, London W1S3AP) Also on the bill are original Batcavers Sexbeat, with DJs Hamish and Cavey Nick, cavorting from decks to decadence with the usual brutal, trouser-dropping surprises & suitably confronting & barbaric entertainment.
The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in the Batcave Pram. All set in a spooky Bladerunner environment!
So dress to kill … prepare for a thrill & Expect the unexpected!
The Batcave will be open from 10pm till 3am. Tickets £15 available from www.ticketweb.co.uk and Resurrection Records.
