Name: Core. Presents: Alpha Male Tea Party
Start: 2025-10-26T19:30:00.000Z
Location: The Hug and Pint

After a break from touring and performing, Liverpool-based trio Alpha Male Tea Party are back with new single Battle Crab, out now via Big Scary Monsters. Having been the vanguard of the UK’s math and progressive rock scenes, the band have taken their 5 year absence to explore striking new territory and for the first time, vocals and lyrics play a central role. Driven by their signature mix of heavy riffs and polyrhythmic grooves, the surprise new track dissects male performative aggression, viscerally telling the tale of a night out that took a turn for the worst, lapsed into unwarranted violence, when all you had planned was a quiet pint while grooving to 10CC. “Battle Crab is the anxious person’s view of nightlife violence and trying not to surround yourselves with friends who only want validation through starting fights,” says bassist Ben Griffiths. “It’s about saying ‘Leave me alone, I just want to see if the jukebox has any Steely Dan.”
