Vulgarithm's "Welcome To The Forgotten Show" is an anthem, a dirty love letter to anyone still scrapping it out in the underground, and a blast of unadulterated celebration for the misfits who've always kept the torch of real music burning in back rooms, basements or dive bars. With Andy "Dirt" McGurk at the helm, jetting out of the unwavering vision of Vulgarithm, his sound is a head-on collision between the noughties' metal riffs and the fluorescent debauchery on a 90's dance floor. "Welcome to the Forgotten Show" captures mongrel fury in its purest dirty, ferocious, and defiantly unrefined state.
There's something primal and fundamentally human about this song. You can hear the late nights spent in the bedroom studio, the vexation with a scene that frequently rewards the bland and the banal, and the conviction of someone not just making noise but standing for something. Nodding to the confrontational attitude of Cypress Hill and the everything-goes aesthetic of rave culture, Vulgarithm has created a high-voltage anthem that is equally about community as it is sound.
The song fuels an unapologetic grassroots force. No slick marketing. Just guerrilla gigs, crowd-sourced video drops, and a firestorm of energy that could only have sprung from the underground up. "Welcome To The Forgotten Show" puts Vulgarithm firmly on the map as a genre-splicing force to be reckoned with. This is evolution and revolution. For anyone left alienated by mainstream music or starved of the real, this song smashes down the door and beckons you in. The lights can be dim, the speakers blown, but the energy is unstoppable.
