Corrosion take to the stage next and though there are only 2 of them in charge of a small amount of on stage equipment, their sound is huge! They sell themselves as a goth rock band, but I think that they may be looking onto the wrong pigeon hole as what I'm hearing is straight up rock, with a nod and a wink to many of the stadium legends of the 70s and 80s.
There is the occasional riff that pays homage to the goth greats too, but overall, I'd say that Corrosion are a mighty fine rock act indeed, with such classics as 'Armageddon in Can', Paul Roe's powerful vocals scale the octaves and make you wonder if this is how W. Axl Rose would sound if he hadn't gargled broken glass as a child.
A very strong performance and lovely chaps they are too!

Corrosion were next - I'd not seen them before but heard lots about them. They had a good, fully-rounded sound for a duo - found them entertaining to watch but the songs didn't instantly grab me, probably a bit similar to other goth-rock stuff I've heard but I enjoyed them well enough.
