Supersonic presents The Ex live at the Castle & Falcon

We’re very excited to welcome the ever-innovative underground experimentalists The Ex back to Birmingham on Thursday 21st May at The Castle & Falcon!

Emerging from Amsterdam’s political squats during the late 70s punk explosion, they quickly began pushing the limits of the genre, weaving in no-wave and noise influences before incorporating a wide array of ideas drawn from non-Western and non-rock sources. These include Hungarian and Turkish folk songs and, more recently, music from Ethiopia, Congo and Eritrea, while still maintaining the raw energy that motivated their formation.
