It's true!

Yes, it was October last year that the band were supposed to be gracing our sunny shores however it was not to be.

We saw the power of Songkick Detour back in February when, in conjunction with our big sister, DrownedinSound, Desaparecidos played their first UK show . It was impressive and it was powered by the crowd. They wanted to see Desaparecidos play live in London and they put their money where their mouths were. We want to do the same thing with some bands that we like. Let's see if we can get American Nightmare over to the UK. Let's see if we can show SikTh that people want to see them live. [...]
