Iron Chic at DIY Space For London, London 4/5/16ĭIY Space is the type of venue that is perfect for Iron Chic. There was something special about seeing them play in a tiny pub in their hometown.ġ9. This was the best I've ever seen Crazy Arm, and they've always been good. It was basically a best of set with at least one new song thrown in for good measure.

Then it kinda goes mad and packs 10 songs into one continuous mega track that shouldn’t work but ends up being perfect. This album is split in two parts, the first part is traditionally structured featuring banger after banger. I loved “We Cool?” and I FUCKING LOVE WORRY. A list featuring Chris Farren isn’t complete without an appearance from his brother from another mother Jeff Rosenstock.
