The Locust at Camden Underworld

The Locust started to get a big fanbase over here a few years back, and a strange thing is that they're nearly all getting younger. Is it their music? Do the strange sounds make everybody shrink and then get unborn? I dunno. A small group of fans are even getting more stupid, with all this pushing people over and one case of punching a girl when in the "mosh" area.

I haven't heard much Squarepusher apart from what I've heard here, and am interested to checkout the live performance. On the birmingham date and a couple of others he plays as a live band, but here he's just DJing I think.
