YOU NEED THIS... like a hole in the head

About Me

From out of this hole in the web, this is TREPAN RECORDS - the label of the cranially connected - dedicated to drilling a hole in the side of the British music industry to expose our collective cortex...

YOU NEED THIS... LIKE A HOLE IN THE HEAD.

THE GREAT BRAIN ROBBERY - the label's regular showcase event, held at Paradise by way of Kensal Green on the second friday of the month, bringing you a night of cranial perforation and skullduggery - bands & burlesque, DJs & dancers, celluloide & strippers - a hole lot of brains & a brain full of holes.
