IT CAME FROM THE SEA
KOMEDIA * £6/5 * 11-3
FRIDAY 08 FEBRUARY
5TH BIRTHDAY / EVIL RITUAL
OUR LITTLE MONSTER IS ALL GROWN UP



Resisting the urge to commission statues/have blue plaques affixed to legs or torsos (as yet) we plan on using this momentous anniversary as a chance to reaffirm our commitment to compassionate futurism, with another dose of next wave indie, neurotic electro and hip-hop futurism.

As for yr other senses, they’ll be ambushed and perhaps permanently damaged too, as we present the ultranostalgic return of our original art sideshow (expanding again from this month, so expect more soon). Likewise, we will wade together through all the infantile party gimmicks we can unearth in bad shops around Brighton. Add disorientating smoke and lights to make an edifying cultural event you can go and get wholly blitzed at.

Oh, and don’t forget to contact us for cheap entry.
