TITANS OF DOOM – EP LAUNCH

Wed 25 September 2019 • 7:30 pm - 11:00 pm

The Future Sound Project and Titans of DOOM are very proud to present the launch show of ToD’s third EP at The Actress on 2 November 2019.

Titans of Doom have curated and personally selected the line-up having chosen some of the very best, and their favourite, acts from Birmingham and the Midlands.

Titans of DOOM – Titans of Doom have crafted a style and sound that has been influenced and shaped by hip-
hop, metal, rock and drum and bass as well as the grim realities of the modern world.

Their music is charged by the broken political and cultural landscape of 21st century Britain. Their mission is to make sure that if you’re p***ed off already, you stay that way and if you’re not, that you listen up, pay attention and join the movement!

Mayday – Crafted by himself, Mayday hails from Birmingham. Taking inspiration from garage mixes his mother use to play in his early years and infusing them with a love of international music on a wider scale, the 0121 native is set to bring his playful storytelling music to the world.

The self-proclaimed ‘Kingstanding Captain’ is one of the most exciting prospects from the West Midlands to emerge in recent times. Mayday is slowly carving out his own lane in the grime scene, one that is inspired by many but not easily imitated.

With 2018 seeing the release of the ‘RAINWORLDKING’ EP and followed up by fan favourite ‘Like Juve’, then ‘36000ft’ to end the year, this was Mayday’s greatest year to date. Dubbing 2019 as ‘The Year of More’ and winning the ‘Rising Star’ Award at the 2019 Birmingham Music Awards; has lead to the release of ‘Ghost Of October’. A project documenting the last 18 months of Mayday’s life.

Figure.09 creates hip-hop that has been influenced by emo and rock music. His music is layered with heavy overtones of guitars and flowing grime beats, with a blissful contrast of his heavy delivery on vocals. He is an artist offering a brutal and honest take on love, music scenes, modern society and mental illness.

Pollen. – Pollenating the airwaves since 2014 this manic 4 piece blast out a chaotic cacophony of funky fusion concepts. Drawing influences from the worlds of reggae, ska, punk, psychedelia, hip-hop, funk, and jazz. With no two songs sounding alike, their unwillingness to be pigeon holed drove them to coin a phrase to explain their sound “devil reggae” . Always forging new ideas, whether on it or off it, this gang never forget about the beat with that all important groove is at the heart of every track.

Taking to the stage across the midlands and beyond, these four amigos have played alongside Big D and the Kids table, Popes of Chilitown, Wonk Unit, The Soap Girls, Allusondrugs, The Bad Flowers, Nosebleed, Captain Stingrays Groove Machine and many more! Gracing stages at Unreal Fest, Lichfield Fuse Festival, 02 Academy Birmingham, The Empire Coventry, Redrum, Cellar Bar, Sunflower Lounge, The Rainbow, Slade Rooms, The Roadhouse, The Victoria, The Gifford Arms, The Station, and The Guildhall to name but a few.

With new releases in the pipeline, this awesome foursome are heading back to the studio with big plans for their first full concept album release. Stay tuned for more of Polly and friends adventures…
