What more could you want than a day filled with great music and questionable puns? Dalston\u2019s <b>Deprestlemania<\/b> had just that.<\/p>\n<p>Four-piece pop punk girls <b>Molar<\/b> had the challenge of opening the day and shone with the rawness of their music. Shouty group vocals, fun but brash lyricism and shoegaze-esque instrumentals make for a distinctive sound and prove they are a quartet to watch out for in the future. (3\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Playing their first ever show, \u201cfuzzmania\u201d duo <b>Splurge<\/b> make a brilliantly distorted, punky but short debut appearance. Otherwise fresh to the scene, the duo are set to their record <i>\u2018Drinking Poison\u2019<\/i> at the end of the month. (3\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Self-dubbed \u201chungover folk-punk\u201d Brighton band <b>Murderhouse<\/b> bring a fresh lease of life to an often untouched lease of music. Casual acoustic instrumentals mixed with brilliantly gruff vocals create a distinct sound as songs from their newly released record <i>\u2018Self Help\u2019<\/i> are sampled. (3\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Emerging newcomers <b>Montana<\/b> are standouts as the doom-pop duo display their talents, showcasing Hyperview generation Title Fight-esque instrumentals and powerful, bright vocals with tracks from the recently released record <i>\u2018Still Here\u2019<\/i>. (4\/5)<!-- more --><\/p>\n<p><b>Modern Rituals<\/b> put on a great show with their unique droned-out garage, alt-rock soundscapes and muffled raw vocals with tracks from their recent demo which is seeing them gain an expansive following. (3\/5)<\/p>\n<p>The brilliant indie-punk formation of <b>Fresh<\/b> make a lasting impact, showcasing tracks from their shiny EP <i>\u2018These Things Are Not That Fun\u2019<\/i> which grabs attention with poignant lyricism and whimsical music style. (4\/5)<\/p>\n<p> The self-proclaimed \u201cfour old guys\u201d <b>Trials Of An Early Man<\/b> are a stand-out amongst the day\u2019s bands, with their youthful energy and jarring punk sounds. Almost acting as the cool big brother of the other acts, they\u2019re also a visually brilliant band who are clearly about having fun and throwing themselves about the room \u2013 almost putting some of the younger bands to shame energy-wise \u2013 and they also whacked out some great wrestling puns. (5\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Always an enjoyable watch, power-pop-emo trio <b>Sad Blood<\/b> display their incredibly flowing tracks. With vocals which turn from gentle and lamenting to raspy and brash with ease mixed with distorted instrumental backgrounds, <b>Sad Blood<\/b> are not a band to be overlooked. (5\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Penultimate band <b>itoldyouiwouldeatyou<\/b> perform a set load of tracks best described as \u201csad songs that make you happy\u201d. The indie punk self-proclaimed sad kids entice with their infectious eclectic energy packed with tight, twinkly guitar work, erratic drumming, synthed-out keyboard and honest vocals resonating familiar themes. They may also have a new record on the way soon\u2026 (5\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, alt-punk outfit create a hard-hitting but ambient soundscape with big distorted guitars, nifty percussion work along with anguish-drenched, drawn-out vocal work. <b>Simmer<\/b> manage to perform a somewhat serene, immersive but angst-ridden set and the five-piece rightfully round the day off with one of the top sets. (5\/5)<\/p>\n<p>Overall,<b>Deprestlemania<\/b> proves to be a brilliant, well thought-out, feel-good day showcasing the best underground talents, a good reminder that to make it big you sometimes have to start off small \u2013 and that\u2019s not always a bad thing when there\u2019s fun shows like this to play.<\/p>\n<p>4.5\/5<\/p>\n<p>Words by Phoebe Messenger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not often you come across the combination of wrestling mixed with some of the most unique emerging underground bands.
