Cataclysm

A few months ago some friends came to me with an idea; they wanted to start a rock and metal night in Cardiff. Great! For the size of the city there are a lot of people interested in alternative music yet the scene itself is fairly limited. We have three real choices for venues that regularly play music other than chart, pop and RnB. These are Metros, Bogiez and Fuel. I have nothing against any of these places but a little diversity never hurts.

Cataclysm started above O'Neils on Trinity Street where they were granted the use of the function room for a few weeks. Over the weeks that they ran they began to draw a small but dedicated crowd by playing requests, ensuring that the music varied every week and that there was always a friendly atmosphere to be had. Unfortunately, due to middle-management policies, Cataclysm were asked to move after two months and have since been looking for a home. That home has been found. Pure nightclub on Guildhall Place (also home to Fuel) have agreed to open on a Wednesday each week from 10pm-3am and so tonight Cataclysm will reopen.

I'll be there, will you?
