What happened to Corp?

[epiphany 10]

I'm aware of being biased here, but I remember (only about 4-5 years ago) when mondays and saturdays were ****ing brilliant. There used to be a really good variety of metal, from classic and mainstream to more underground/extreme.

 

Now it's all pop, indie, emo, rip-rap etc.

 

Don't get me wrong, I like some indie and pop, but please, not at Corp! Where else is there to go for your thrash and grind?

It started to happen a while ago. I became disillusioned with the place two or three years ago and wehnever I go now I know no one the music is pretty crappy and it just seems weird to be in a horrible sweaty place with nothing to amuse you. Saying that I went last Monday and the Friday just gone and enjoyed both times, but was with a groujp of friends both times. It seems to make the difference.

It saddens me!

I think monday nights are pretty great at the moment! Although it's kind of wandered away from Corps original style...

[neeeeeeeeeek 10]

To be fair they can't win. If they play the same tunes from 4 years ago people moan, if they try and play more current stuff people moan!

[lomaxkinesis 10]

Mondays upstairs its a weird amalgamation of drum and Bass, Dubstep and hip hop. Which normally I don't mind but it is the commercial r n' b that is played. As Sheffield's only alternate club, you expect alternate music. (Aside from Skool Disco)

Did you used to go on your own?

 

Just wondering if it's worth me popping down next monday. Even if they just played some Slayer, Machine Head, Napalm etc. I'd be happy

No used to go with a couple of mates, but we would know loads of people there.

I used to like that room on mondays! They'd play some good old hip hop. I noticed it get steadily more RnB'ified though. Haven't been in a long time so I don't know how it is now.

I used to go quite regularly, but the last few times I went it was dire so haven't been in over 18months now

Saturday nights tend to be better. At least down on the ground floor they are... the other rooms pump out some very odd choices of music It is a youth club these days and I tend not to go that often.

[Haldamir 10]

Saturday night is now pretty much the main rock/metal night and has been for a while it seems.

 

There's also a new, relatively unknown night, usually held on the last Thursday in every month. It's called 'Metalsammlung' and its run in the small room only (so far). Entry is £3. The DJ's have been very amiable chaps so far and will play pretty much ANYTHING metal as long as they have it, though it is tailored to less mainstream metal.
