    VEGA og smash!bang!pow! præsenterer Det er en skam ikke at opleve Shame i VEGA En britisk tornado af rendyrket DYI-postpunk har kurs direkte mod Lille VEGA den 29. oktober, når den anmelderroste femkløver i Shame sætter vildskaben fri. De unge musikere fra Brixton opsteg på rekordtid i 2017 fra undergrunden i London til de internationale scener, hvor de tog publikum og anmeldere med storm. Med fandenivoldske og utæmmelige energiudladninger af primalskrig og skærende guitarriffs, har Shame opbygget et ry som et af Storbritanniens bedste livebands. Den 15. januar udgiver Shame deres andet studiealbum, Drunk Tank Pink. Med de nye sange guider kvintetten lytteren gennem nye afkroge af deres enorme, musikalske talent. På singlen ”Alphabet” vikler komplekse trommerytmer sig ind et i melodisk net af dansable guitariffs, der tilsammen skaber en eklektisk fusion af punk og funk. Hvor debutalbummet er rendyrket, oprørsk postpunk dykker bandet på det kommende album ned i større og mere sprudlende produktioner i samarbejde med produceren James Ford (The Last Shadow Puppets, Depeche Mode, Foals). Energien er stadig på sit højeste, men lydbilledet og teksterne har taget et spadestik dybere ned i eftertænksomheden. Siden debutalbummet, Songs Of Praise, udkom tilbage 2018, har de unge musikere turneret nonstop i hele verden. For forsanger Charlie Steen katapulterede den længere pause ham ud i en dyb identitetskrise, hvilket albummet i høj grad handler om. Charlie Steen fortæller: “You become very aware of yourself and when all of the music stops, you’re left with the silence,” reflects Steen. “And that silence is a lot of what this record is about.” Fakta om koncerten Shame (UK) Fredag den 29.

In conjunction, they present a new single, “Water in ​ ​ the Well,” with an accompanying video directed by Pedro Takahashi. There are ​ ​ ​ moments on Drunk Tank Pink where you almost have to reach for the sleeve to check ​ ​ this is the same band who made 2018’s Songs Of Praise. Such is the jump shame have ​ ​ made from the riotous post-punk of their debut to the sprawling adventurism laid out in the bigger, bolder James Ford produced follow-up. ​ ​ This creative leap, in part, was sparked by the band’s recent crash back down to earth, having spent their entire adult life on the road. It stems from their beginnings as wide-eyed teenagers, cutting their teeth in the pubs and small venues of South London, to becoming the most celebrated new band in Britain, catapulted by the success of their breakthrough debut album. Readjusting to a new normal back home with - for the first time since the band’s formation - no live shows on the horizon, frontman Charlie Steen ​ attempted to party his way out of psychosis. An intense bout of waking fever-dreams convinced Steen that self medicating his demons wasn’t a very healthy plan of action and it was probably time to stop and take a look inward.
