Clit Spit

Clit Spit are playing at The Rossi Bar on 21 July 2026. The Leeds-based band is bringing their set to Brighton, with the event starting at 19:30. They are a female-fronted punk outfit known for a sound that leans heavily into riot-grrl vocal influences and strident guitars. If you are familiar with the work of Lambrini Girls, Gang Of Four, or Mommy Long Legs, you will have a good idea of the territory they cover. They describe their own output as a "rampaging, noisy" style, with lyrics that are both explicit and playful, often focusing on intersectional feminist themes. It is worth noting that they recommend bringing earplugs for their performance, which they characterise as "manic."

They are joined on the night by two support acts. First up is Opalites, a trio hailing from Bournemouth. Their sound is a blend of 90s grunge and art rock, often utilising dissonance and unusual time signatures. They place a specific emphasis on bringing "girls, gays, and theys" to the front of the stage and into the pit. Also on the bill are Paris '68. This four-piece group describes their sound as "indescribable," and they approach their live sets with a philosophy of playing every show as if it were their last. They are also noted for having a distinct disregard for their own eardrums, which suggests a high-energy performance.

The venue is located at 8 Queens Road, Brighton, BN1 3WA. Tickets for the evening are priced at £5.00. It is a straightforward setup for a night of alternative, punk, and independent rock music. The combination of the three acts offers a look at different approaches to the genre, from the riot-grrl influenced vocals of the headliners to the experimental time signatures of the support.
