Schism Rock Club

Schism Rock Club Established in 2002, Schism is a monthly Rock Club, with events taking place in both Reading and Guildford. Keep an eye out for our dress-up themed events.

Schism is in it's 23rd year putting on events in Surrey and beyond. We pride ourselves on building a safe and inclusive club night, playing a range of rock, metal, and alternative club hits as an escape from the drudgery of daily life and somewhere to work your neck muscles 🤘

Schism regularly has 4 DJs:

- DJ Brad (with decades' of experience playing the likes of the Agincourt in Camberley and th

e Face Bar in Reading, Brad is known for his love of 00s pop-punk, emo and indie and isn't shy on the mic! Oh, and he used to be Metallica's tour DJ back in the day!)
- DJ Force-X (a Schism resident since we opened in 2002, Barney is lover of all things metal and electronic. Known for his mixing skills, being in the band Zero Cipher, and running his own rock podcast, he also supports local bands and underground acts and regularly gives them a spin during early doors)
- DJ Source:E (Since 2012 Jez has proved popular with the crowd thanks to his knowledge of both the rock & metal end of the spectrum and the alternative electronic. You'll likely either see him walking around the club in a vest showing off his impressive biceps, or donned in an impressive costume depending on the theme of the night!).
-The Soundshark (The newest member of the Schism collective, is a decade-wise DJ and radio personality, with his middle finger firmly pressed in the face of genre constraints since day one. The Soundshark started life regularly DJing at university, as well as presenting radio shows, getting to open for Feeder, and playing an afterparty for Kids In Glass Houses during his time there. Once time at university concluded, his DJing adventures took him across further club nights in Surrey, including once onto the hallowed grounds of Quake, and even a wedding in Europe. It wasn’t however, until the advent of the pandemic, that truly supercharged the drive to DJ more frequently.) We usually hold around 5 per year, and participation is high. More often than not there are very generous prizes to be won for the best-dressed! (festival tickets, bar tabs etc).

Thank you to those of you who have helped us in supporting Beat:Cancer this year. Every contribution, no matter how small, helps to fund research against fighting something that has negatively impacted so many of us throughout our lives. ❤️
