Thu 30th The Luminaire presents SPEAR OF DESTINY 
Doors 8.00 Spear of Destiny were formed from the ashes of iconic post punk heroes Theatre of Hate, who in turn were formed from front man and songwriter Kirk Brandon's first band, original punk rockers, The Pack. Since their formation in 1983, SOD have been signed and re-signed to Rough Trade, Epic, CBS, Virgin Records UK & US, Chrysalis, Warner Chappell and EMI. They now have their own label - Easter Snow Recording Company. Their live shows draw on not only their eleven studio albums and new material, but often feature the Theatre of Hate classic independent #1 singles 'Do You Believe in The Westworld?', 'Legion/Original Sin' and 'The Hop'. In recent outings even the first two Pack singles 'King of Kings' and 'Brave New Soldiers' have found their way into the set. As well as Brandon, the all-star line of SOD now features Robin Goodridge (Bush) on drums, Craig Adams (Sisters of Mercy/The Mission) on bass and Adrian Portas (New Model Army) on guitars. Brandon is also a founder member of punk supergroup Dead Men Walking which has featured, among others, Mike Peters, Captain Sensible, Slim Jim Phantom, Billy Duffy, Mick Jones, Glen Matlock, Bruce Watson, Pete Wylie and Lemmy over the past five years.
Spear of Destiny will release their twelth studio album 'Imperial Prototype' later this year. |
