These Are End Times return to the Smokehouse for the first time in 4 years.

It's 12 years since the release of debut album 'We Have Come So Far, It Is Over'. Weirdly, this album has had a BBC documentary made about it, led to an appearance at Latitude, and has been described by one (presumably high) online commentator as the best post-rock album of all time. Which all seems a bit over the top.

The band will play the album in its entirety on Friday November 18th in an effort to figure out why something that started as an excuse for former members of Optimum Wound Profile to hang out took on a life of its own, and meant that they had to make an effort for a few weeks.

Tickets are £7, in advance and on the door: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/these-are-end-times-live-at-the-smokehouse-ipswich-tickets-401357590357
