The Hu, Fire From The Gods, Live at The Electric Ballroom, London, February 11 2020
The outfits may be of traditional design but wouldn’t be out of place in a sci-fi movie or TV show where the heroes are all dressed for harsher environments. Leather, tassels, heavy boots and long coats to protest them against the elements, they look like they’ve come from 2000 AD’s Cursed Earth story lines.
Chapter 13 – Live at Dingwalls, Camden Lock, London – February 6 2020
