QUEEN ADREENA Saturday 28th The Zodiac Remember Katie Jane Garside? Mental Linda-Blair-transposed-into-Courtney-Love’s-body post-goth screamer from early-90s one-hit-wonder tigers Daisy Chainsaw? Course ya do. Well, off she went to have a breakdown when the cruel world of pop fell apart round her, until she eventually bumped into co-Chainsaw conspirator Crispin Gray and decided to do it all over again, but this time with an added dose of Kate Bush on crack and a nifty line in sprawling gothic banshee trip-pop. And nowadays Katie no longer loves your money, instead she delves deeper into her own twisted dreams to exhume gruesome childhood nightmares just so she can rip her nightie a bit more. Their debut album was called ‘Taxidermy’ because it was all about stuffing and mounting the psychological monsters that hide under the bed. A right fun night out for all the family, then. If your family name is Addams. Uncomfortable though it might have been back then to watch someone genuinely falling apart onstage, Katie’s stronger now, although still wonderfully possessed with some kind of demon child force.
