The Cave - 14:00

What began as late-night jams between Louis Hardy (Higher Power, Big Cheese, Fate) and Ben Jones (Pest Control) eventually mutated into train_wreck_simulation, a debut EP filled with frantic breakdowns and nu-metal swag that felt like the soundtrack to a digital exorcism. The final piece of the puzzle came from Hardy’s estranged childhood friend, pq (Nihiloxica). His haunted samples and disturbing synthetic textures inject cyberpunk soul into hardcore flesh. Contorting through several iterations in the following years, the band absorbed Luke Thompson (Stiff Meds) on drums, hardcore archivist Tom Hobson (Dai Tan Films) on guitar, and Naomi Macleod (Empire State Bastard) on bass, and laid down their first collective offering.
