A perfect breed of two brilliant bands,
BABY GODZILLA and
ZOAX, joined forces to hit up the road just before Christmas for a full run of show.
Joined at the Forum Hatfield, HOOLIGAN COLLECTIVE were the first band to open up the night. Their hardcore/ punk influence sound was presently heard within their performance as the youngsters had a dated noise to them, with their performance taking to the floor space rather than the stage, the band tried to re live what old punk shows were about, getting the crowd as close as possible and moving along. With a much lengthened set, HOOLIGAN COLLECTIVE gave a visual performance, bouncing around in his glittering jacket, guitarist Dale swamped the lime light.
Bordering on from one energetic performance to ZOAX who gave a whole new level of intensity, the night was sure to be heating up just in time. If you have never seen this band live before, then you are sure to be in for a treat with their most talked about frontman. Frontman Adam Carroll, decided that he belongs on the floor with the crowd, doing all kinds of shit to make sure that every single person was included. Starting off, Adam roamed around the venue, having a little chat with everyone before he screamed into their faces, crossing paths with their shocked expressions which seemed to charge his charisma even more, plunging his microphone to dance around the room while capturing members of the audience in his waltz. The rest of the band who were left on stage, left no silence. Getting stuck in with bashful moments which complimented their vibrant loud, angry sound the band gave an astonishing performance that truly left the crowd in mutters of what they had just witnessed.
If that wasn't enough then BABY GODZILLA were on next to finally take over The Forum and leave your souls running out of your body. Known for their outrageous stage presence, the band wasted no time in getting stuck in, as the show seemed to take place on the floor rather than the stage. Not complaining, BABY GODZILLA who claimed to describe themselves as "General extreme noise" certainly did live up to the expectation. With such a spacious room to cause havoc in, the band sent circles spinning, climbing onto the bar, interrupting conversations between friends, they are the band who literally don't give a fuck.
There is no word to describe that night other than complete and utter chaos, one of the best shows that BABY GODZILLA have played, by making girls cry in the process of destroying themselves, Matt Reynolds dominated his angry howls, making sure everyone was shitting their pants while Jonny Hall got upfront and personal.
"Powerboat Disaster" ended the beaten night with gang vocals of the crowd cheering in in a bundle of madness, as exhausted screams let out one final whirl wind of noise before dropped to a halt.
