Friday: Cabaret Nocturne BIRTHDAY BASH! 7 YEARS!! It's on people!! Cab Noc has survived 7 trashtacular years of all night party shenanigans and we think that's something worth celebrating - with a MASSIVE night of party shenanigans on Friday August 20! In the dead of winter 2003 it all kicked off at a wonderful old place called Dream Nightclub. It had a fireplace, pool table, two dancefloors and possibly the seediest reputation of any venue in Melbourne. After a swag of venue changes we've hit on the perfect spot and we'll also be celebrating one year at the inimitable Mercat Cross Hotel. Two dance floors, a massive licensed smokers balcony, huge chillout room with silent cinema, pool table and ambient/experimental sounds, a fireplace and some of the cheapest drink prices in Melbourne. We love the joint! SADLY this will be the last time we party upstairs at the Mercat!! A lengthy battle with local residents and the council over noise levels has resulted in an embargo on nightclub events being held upstairs from September 2010. So this is your last chance to party with us up at the Mercat before we make some changes in the springtime. Don't miss it!! Featuring a mad lineup of DJ's including the three troopers who've been there from the beginning - Ayngell, Lobotomy and Tommy Rotten plus we welcome home from Europe Miss Aeryn who will be bringing loads of brand spanking hard EBM and Industrial back from her travels. Also our unbeatable drink specials - $4 basics before midnight and $15 jugs of Snakebite, Sangria and Zombie Apocalypse all night long!! Arrive before midnight to receive a free champagne and slice of birthday cake. Friday August 20 Mercat Cross Hotel 456 Queen St (next to Vic Market) Entry is $13 full, $10 flier/guestlist and $8 for members. Doors open at 10PM, 18+ ID required. | | Tuesday, June 8th, 2010 | 4:44 pm [__lobotomy__]

Joining Christian Death will be legendary locals IKON and from NYC the amazingly talented Voltaire CHRISTIAN DEATH With a career that spans 30 years of controversy, tragedy, success and rebirth. Christian Death are the seminal American gothic rock band. Valor, Maitri and Nate Hassan bring Christian Death to Australian shores for the very fisrt time, this August. http://www.cornerhotel.com IKON Australian band IKON has been creating its unique brand of wave music for eighteen years. Chris McCarter (vocals, guitar, programming) and Dino Molinaro (bass) began to write songs as high school students in 1988. IKON has been called “the AC/DC of goth” for its long-term success creating and performing music that rocks internationally from all the way Down Under. 2010 began with IKON supporting H.I.M. in Melbourne and will see them support Christian Death in August. http://www.cornerhotel.com VOLTAIRE Direct from the underground New York goth scene comes this strange brew of Gypsy melodies, driving rhythms, sardonic wit and turn-of-the-century mayhem. Combining sepia soaked old-world melodies with viciously sarcastic lyrics, Wagnerian bravado and Brechtian allure, Voltaire brings his songs of love, loss, revenge and dismemberment to Australia for the first time this August. http://www.voltaire.net/  | | Monday, March 15th, 2010 | 5:00 pm [__lobotomy__]

Sweden’s death-glammers, DEATHSTARS, and their infamous, wild, provocative and dark live sets will be in Australia for the first time in September!! Tickets on sale NOW through www.cornerhotel.com “Combining elements from Rammstein, Cradle of Filth, Marilyn Manson and Clawfinger” – All Metal Source.com"It's like group sex between Samantha Fox, the Village People and Satan" – Whiplasher (vocalist) “The sexiest Swedish export since Greta Garbo” – Planet Loud.Com (live review) It is a ravishing rock group of many faces, with members who are as weird as they are charismatic; Sweden’s DEATHSTARS and their unconventional live shows are coming to Australia.Winners of the Best Newcomers at the Golden Gods Awards in 2007 as presented by the UK Metal Hammer Magazine, this band and its five members are the founders of death glam-metal, a title not just any band can carry. This deathly beautiful band have had their sound described as atmospheric and melodic containing elements of Rammstein, a sense of composition worthy of some of the best of Cradle of Filth, with a clear and present vibe of sex, guts and horror. Live reviewers have done nothing but rave about DEATHSTARS who are renowned for pouting, flirting, sweating and stripping their way through a disgustingly excellent sleaze filled set. Front man Whiplasher is well known for his on stage debauchery and direct contact with audience members, often apologizing to the boyfriends in the crowd for arousing their screaming girlfriends so much. | | Tuesday, August 25th, 2009 | 12:04 pm [pussyhound]
