The Bug heads up a London showcase of serious bassweight.

The latest event announced by Soundcrash spans several genres, but with one common thread: weight. On April 18 at North London’s KOKO, some of music’s all-time heaviest acts will lock horns. Headlining the night is The Bug, a bastard from the outlands of grime, noise, ragga and dub whose stage show – here featuring Manga, Flowdan and Miss Red – is infamous for what it does to speaker stacks. Elsewhere on the bill: one of dubstep’s most authoritative acts in Mala, ragga-tinged drum’n’bass madmen Dub Phizix & Strategy and the quietly legendary Channel One Sound System.

In short: bring ear plugs. For tickets and more information, head to the Soundcrash website. Watch a promo video for the night below.
