   About Flatlands
Flatlands started off as a wisp of heather floating on the breeze of a bright Spalding day, then it rained and we got washed away in the river until we got snagged on a branch on the cusp of the Witham, since then we've been writing songs that reflect our damp, snagged human condition. We like to play shows so please put us on in your locale.

Please also send cans, its harvest time.

RELEASES INCLUDE- "Come For The Boredom, Stay For The Monotony" self released CDR demo (2005), split 12" LP with Sunshine Republic (2005), Superfi Records, "Vermuyden" CD Sound Devastation Records (2006). "Black Sluice" CD Sound Devastation Records (2009)

We have toured with the following bands- Red Stars Parade/Naked Shit (2005), The Death Of Her Money (2006), Narwhal (2006), Montana (2008) and Tiger Warsaw (2009).

NEW HEAVY SOUNDS - A club night for those not afraid of aural assault!


A new night of heavy live sounds and DJs to match in a new venue as dark and loud as necessary.


Following the storming first night of New Heavy Sounds in September (with the marvellous BO-NINGEN headlining), we're super excited about the next NHS night, with zombie-baiting wonders CHICKENHAWK supported by the brilliant heavy garage of BAD FOR LAZARUS, the tight'n'heavy FRAFF and Cardiff's great STRANGE NEWS FROM ANOTHER STAR.


DJs include IGOR VOLK (NYPC / Diesel:U:Music Radio rock show) + STU PLIMSOLES. Visuals courtesy of image meister the k e r n s.


From Rock to Extreme Noise, Hardcore to Acid Rock, Grunge to Doom, Garage Rock to Stoner ie anything that is extreme rock'n'roll!!!
