"I was back inside for the last act, the almighty Dissidence. By this time, the bar had run of beer, had stopped serving and was actually letting people bring in their own drinks. Dissidence are metallic hardcore geniuses who have had a good following in Worcester for a while now, and rightly so - in fact, I can't think of a band more deserving of closing the Pig and Drum for good than them. By this point, the P.A was nearly destroyed, the sound further worsened by the fact the pub was crammed full of sweating bodies. Somehow, all this combined to create a performance Dissidence will have to work hard to beat. Devoid of all the subtleties a decent P.A would have afforded them, the sound was broken down to the level of pure rhythmic noise, perfect for the venting of all the energy that was pent up, the ideal soundtrack for happy carnage, a celebration of years and years of merry drinking and pushing your mates over to underground bands screaming their hearts out for little more than petrol money, a massive outward sign of the squats, house parties, DIY gigs and simply not giving in. I don't think I am exaggerating in saying that anyone who was there will not forget that moment for the rest of their lives. Pure genius, pure brilliance." - Johnny Kowalski on The Last Ever Pig Gig 3rd April 2010
I'm going to copy and paste this because there's simply no way I can write a better review of Dissidence than Johnny Kowalski did. "I was back inside for the last act, the almighty Dissidence.

Making your music folder better, one song at a time.
_Pretty much everyday I seem to find some amazing exclusive tracks that
some awesome artists are giving away for free as a special one off
promotion. Today, it occured to me that instead of just downloading
them, maybe reposting them on facebook if they're special enough/someone I know and
then moving on, I should start a little music blog on here. Even if it
doesn't last forever, it's still a free song for you each day that it
does! I'd say the character of this blog is mostly electropop and singer/songwriter but I've got plans for mathcore, post-rock and glitch-hop. A lot of these tracks have a download limit of 100 so get in there on the quick. I'd also point out that a lot of the songs will need renaming once you've downloaded them so I'd do them one at a time. Archives
