APOCALYPSE NOW-ISH is a post-apocalyptic Halloween night of live music with filthy riffs and end-of-the-world chaos at The Fighting Cocks, where the bar stays open as civilisation crumbles. It is put on by the pub and features three bands: Imperium, a London-based heavy/thrash metal band fresh off their debut album 'EXODUS UNKNOWN', Kingston natives Swearwolves with their energetic, heavy and sweaty shows, and Vulcan, a South London old-school metal band forging riff-heavy songs full of groove and melody. Killer bands, mutant mayhem and enough noise to wake the dead are promised, and there is a fancy dress competition where revellers are urged to dress to impress their fellow ghouls. It is an 18+ event.
