I’m sure you can imagine I see quite a few gigs in a week. Sometimes I get to up to four in one week. It’s rare that I get to relive one of my most favoured childhood experiences. It might even be one of my favourite gigs ever. Alec Empire at Reading festival touring with his then new album Intelligence and Sacrifice. Recommended by a pilled up pink haired cyberpunk I went along and Alec destroyed my ears. I’ve not looked back since. Alec is no different now than he was then. He is loud, he is charismatic and he IS punk. Joined by standard teenage crush Nic Endo I’m in awe once again. I’m reminded why I do what I do. This is most definitely one of the best shows of my year if only for the fact that I finished with my evening shouting “Revolution Action” repeatedly with my fist in the air.
