- **Event Name**: Adventures in Pop: CHOPCHOP
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 07 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: The brainchild of Montague Armstrong, Rippengal and The Barbarian Horde, Adventures In Pop is a monthly night of original, creative music from left-of-field with a different featured headliner each month.

This month we welcome Brighton-based post punk, art rock, prog band CHOPCHOP: 

“CHOPCHOP’s music snakes round its orator like a slippery thing, cymbals replaced by the clatter of hubcaps on toms, cutlery-jammed guitars – there’s an itchy jazzy vibe to the melodics, fuelled by a fertile imagination full of bruised shapes and punkish angles.

Performance artist Xelís de Toro dances the jagged edges superbly in an urgent, jerky Giacometti centrepiece that has a David Byrne-like drive to his contortions, enraptured in a stream of consciousness simplicity and a razor-sharp intellect.

The sounds that surround him are tensive, built up on darting dynamics, eerie keys and smeared trumpet that Schaumburg your head with surprise. A mosaic whole, crawling and crackling, mining mantra-like to vocal abstracts that punch out their confines. Their last track is a beautiful contraction that secures a well deserved applause.”

- Live review
Michael Rodham-Heaps at FREQ mag,
on CHOPCHOP at Moth Club, Hackney

“A fantastic life affirming noise… wildly original” 
Tom Robinson, BBC 6

“The extraordinary chopchop – better, more ferocious, more astonishing every time I see them” 

“Never seen anything like them… left me with the strange urge to watch a Marx brothers film”
