Formed in 1987, Ned’s Atomic Dustbin is synonymous with the Stourbridge sound that became the soundtrack for a generation of people in the early 90’s.

On Saturday September the 25th the newly opened HMV Institute will be playing host to a back to back rendition of God Fodder followed by a set of the band’s other hits.

For Ned’s Atomic Dustbin, God Fodder was that album, their Indie Classic – the one that catapulted them out of Student Union bars the length and breadth of Britain into the skies, crossing the indie-rock globe at a frightening pace.

Fast forward to 2009 and now reformed, Dan, Mat, Alex, Rat and Jonn – all 5 original members of Ned’s decided, following December 2008’s rammed-out Astoria and 2009’s sold-out hometown Re:United shows, it was time to celebrate the record that made it all happen.

Neds Singer, Jonn Penney says “Back when we first toured God Fodder, we didn’t play in Birmingham and that’s something we’ll be very happy to address all these years later.

“We can’t wait to christen the new venue and set a new bar-takings record!”
