in this dawning age of digital rankings and competing impression counts, have you ever wondered how YOUR favorite bands would stack up against their artistic contemporaries?

for the s-dubs team, it’s always a thrill to pair some of our favorite musical luminaries against their counterparts and see who survives the no-holds-barred steel cage that is the “STRANGEWAYS” dance floor.

imagine heavy-hitting tracks from legendary SW artists pummeling your earholes back and forth, one after the other in constant succession. uppercuts and deep cuts, body-blows and b-sides, all whipping the smartly-dressed spectators and agilely-gifted audience members into a sweaty frenzy of aural ecstasy and auditory bliss. do we fight to love, or love to fight? we’ll discover the answer together between the speaker towers come friday night!

first off, we’ve assembled two undercard matches full of pouty lips and swinging hips that will set the stage for the britpop battle royale to ensue. boys and girls, we give you:

ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN vs THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS
/and/
ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVERS IN THE DARK vs ERASURE

then, two rounds of the title card re-match where basses are played like guitars and keyboards are played like drums. ladieeeees and gentlemen, give it up for:

DEPECHE MODE vs. NEW ORDER ! ! !

expect the same level of head-to-head, no-holds-barred intensity that you have come to know and love from SW:FNF, along with all the usual dancing, drinking, and merriment that you just can't get enough of.

requests: welcomed!
get em' in early, get em' in often.
see. you. THERE! (xo)
