Codex
The Libertines have reformed! And their comeback gig is as support to The Automatic at Hoxton Bar and Grill! It didn’t take a genius to realise these two things are, well, lies. Codex had, however, done their best to trick me with the Barat-esque hair and the Doherty style Trilby. Aside from the aesthetics, Codex still bore a resemblance to The Libertines: short, snappy tunes and an intriguing chemistry between the band. Like any new band, Codex are short on material but, in the little time they had on stage, they impressed. It will be worth keeping an eye on them over the coming months to see how they progress.
