CLUB ANTICHRIST announces Steampunk Special

After hosting its first 'uber-sized' 10-zone party on December 30th under the banner ‘Not New Year’s Eve’, London’s largest and most creative alt. fetish night is kicking off 2012 as only it could - taking over the ground floor at the Colosseum Club again, and taking clubbers back to a future engineered in Victorian fiction.

Taking aesthetic cues from H.G Wells’ Time Machine, Jules Verne’s flying machines and Shelley and Stevenson’s monsters of pre-modern science, the steampunk subculture which AntiChrist celebrates on March 9th is now developing as fast as its cog ‘n’ copper-clad disciples are multiplying, spawning a dizzyingly diverse range of artistic, sartorial and musical interpretations. Representing the broad spectrum of the steamy sound, AC’s THEATRE OF SIN stage hosts Ghostfire’s sea shanties for airship pirates, which nod to Nick Cave and Tom Waits‘ off-kilter blues, and Sunday Driver, whose unlikely arrangement of sitar, harp, clarinet, tabla and even a pair of dessert spoons pitches them as purveyors of world music, filtered through the world view of Verne’s …80 Days! Meanwhile Stills' futuristic hard alt. electronica is what Wells' Time Traveller might have heard had he set the controls for the next century.

Back in AC's own anachronistic Victorian past, the job of winding up the wheels of copper and selecting tracks between acts goes to The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing, a band seeking to ‘put the punk into steampunk’ who launch their second album at the club. To mark the March 12th release of the tongue-twistingly titled This May Be The Reason Why The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing Cannot Be Killed By Conventional Weapons bassist and comedian Marc Burrows will be giving away five advance copies - as well as one grand prize bundle including the band’s entire catalogue and merch range - as he acts as compere on the Theatre stage.

On any given night steamy shenanigans of another sort are of course to be expected at AntiChrist, and on the full-frontal front, March 9th again ups the ante as, for one night only, the guys and girls of Satan’s Strip Show are joined by Missy - one half of the husband and wife promotions team behind AC’s 8 year success story. Raising more than temperatures, Missy’s sponsored strip concludes a three month fundraising campaign to privately finance a RSV vaccination for one-year old Alfie - a friend’s poorly son refused the potentially life-saving jab by his local primary care trust. Although Missy’s personal target of £300 has now been reached you can still read Alfie’s story, and continuing donating to help his parents hit their overall total of £2,000, at https://www.facebook.com/MissyDoesSSS

With Missy’s act sure to be a tough one to follow, she and husband Dom have called on a couple of trump cards to complete the line-up of strip shows that will seen in March. Marnie Scarlet’s new routine ‘Voodoo Apocalypse’ promises to serve another slice of the deliciously off-beat and theatrical grotesque burlesque that has impressed at ACs past, but it’s fellow returning favourite, Mouse who really puts the cream on the cake… and for that matter the front rows, to go on previous performances! Anything goes (and comes!) when this Erotic Awards winner is onstage, so while it’s impossible to say exactly what could happen in the course of tonight’s ‘Milk You Like A Cow’ skit, it should suffice to say that sploshing and squirting are Mouse specialities! Last but not least to entertain the Theatre audience then is Sarge, of the Metal Fatigue Performance Collective - a pro-piercer, artist and master of suspensions.
