Girl BandRobocobra Quartet

Saturday 7 February

Tickets available on the door.


2014 was an extraordinary year for Dublin quartet Girl Band. From the release of the utterly bombastic Lawman at the very start of the year, the band's psychotic, frenetic noise-rock has seen them support post-rock pioneers Slint on several dates, gain an ever-attentive fanbase in Ireland and far beyond, deliver a landmark performance at Electric Picnic 2014 and sign to Rough Trade Records.

Supported by another of the country's most exciting acts, Belfast "baroque-punk hip hop jazz" band Robocobra Quartet, the Dublin band will bring their incomparably claustrophobic and forward-thinking craft to Belfast's Bar Sub at Queen's University Students' Union on Saturday, February 7.

Presented by The Thin Air.

"Dara Kiely makes like a young, easily agitated Stephen Malkmus suffering an existential crisis in the midst of studying for his mid-terms as a death-disco revival party rages in the dorm room next door. There were no survivors." - Pitchfork

"A succinct, vicious slab of noise-pop genius that expertly blends texture, dissonance, and squealing, searing feedback with tight dynamism and an infectious hook." - Drowned In Sound

"This is maniacal music, the kind translates onto its listener and turns them into a more rabid individual. Watch out." - This Is Fake DIY

"Goddamn, this is ace." The Quietus
