PROLAPSE
AT THE RUM SHACK
FRIDAY 30TH OCTOBER 2026
Doors 19:30 - 23:00 Curfew
PROLAPSE formed in Leicester in the early 90s and are now spread across the UK and Scandinavia. Still pursuing their own path of repetition and twisted melodies, they merge influences from post punk to krautrock and even folk. Their previous releases have included numerous singles and four albums on various labels, including Cherry Red and Radar. They feature vocalists Mick Derrick and Linda Steelyard, whose intense duelling vocals combine with ferocious triple guitar assault and pummelling rhythms.
The fifth Prolapse album "I Wonder When They're Going to Destroy Your Face" was released on Tapete Records in 2025 and marked the bands first new recordings since their last album, "Ghosts of Dead Aeroplanes", released in 1999, but in some ways it feels like there hasn't a break at all. From the opening incessant riff of "The Fall of Cashline", Prolapse set their stall out, hammering the message that they're back, over and over (and over and over) again. The album received rave reviews, and the lead single "On The Quarter Days" made it to No.1 in the legendary Festive 50, as initially voted for by John Peel listeners, and now at Danedelion radio.
The gigs in England following the release of the album last year, were intense very sweaty affairs, and 2026 started with a mini tour of the Balkans, whereupon in Athens, the band were greeted by the biggest crowd of their entire career, an amazing night for all.
Summer of 2026 sees the release of the Mary Anne Hobbs sessions album on Precious Recording of London.
