Live Review: Man Overboard, The Living Daylights, Watch Commander & Directions - Victoria Inn, Derby - 19/7/11
Posted on AlterThePress.com in July 2011.
Tonight’s show sees Man Overboard taking a break from their UK tour with Polar Bear Club for a intimate headline show in Derby. Although a slightly smaller show, the organizers (Derby DIY Collective) pulled together an impressionable line-up. First up were local band, Directions with their Balance & Composure-esque sound which at times seemed drawn out, yet contained enough substance and energy to win over the crowd. With sensible mix of post-hardcore and hardcore punk, Directions seem to be taking the right approach that is more than likely to get themselves noticed in the coming months.
