I had not previously visited the Electric Brixton, and it seemed to have a very odd door policy, involving not letting anyone through the door. However, then they said the times had been wrongly advertised and in fact they had never planned to let anyone in until 7pm, even if it was pouring with rain. Inside there was nothing drinkable for a man but Kronenbourg in cans (poured into plastic cups) at great expense. Otherwise this it is a pleasant little place, even with balconies. Blood Ceremony gave a pleasant set which could have been rather louder, and included a new though not immediately remarkable single. Uncle Acid produce lo-fi albums but here we had excellent crunching sound and even a level of the sort of aural distortion you can get with valves played at the top of their output. The projections were pointless most of the time but with some nice effects at the end. Audience was enthusiastic at the front, tiring towards the finish, and less keen on the material from the new album, with which judgement I concur. Notable also was that I do not ever previously recall a metal concert ending with a mellow guitar duet.
