Jilly's Rock World

• Loud Music, Loud in general

  I've been in a couple of times, a lot of my mates go in as a regular thing every week. It's usually about a fiver on the door, if you don't like loud music I wouldn't bother. The main theme is metal, heavy metal, though the rooms vary slightly that's what will be ringing in your ears by the end of the night. I wouldn't dwell too much on the beer, if your looking for quality, this isn't it. The price hikes up after a certain time (around 11, 12 if I recall) and there's not much to choose from. To sum it up - if your looking for moshing, loud music, the occasional hottie accompanied by her freaking looking friend, go here. For a similar style but a better place, however, I'd recommend Rock Kitchen up the road.

• A loveable dive

  Jilly's - our shoes stick to the floor, you insist on playing the same soundtrack every week but we still love you. Four rooms playing goth, metal, emo, punk, rock, ska and such like. Don't bother getting dressed up, jeans and a t-shirt will do. Drinks are reasonable, good atmosphere and crowd, new / different songs wouldn't go a miss though. Just don't stand near any guys with long dreads on the dance floor unless you want whiplash.

• Can vary

  Jillys can be very hit and miss. They have various nights; thursday, friday and saturday. They change the genres of the rooms every now and then so I can't be 100% on what room plays what any more but ill try a rundown of what i can recall. Fridays is the all nighter where they're open to the ungodly hour of 6am where many choose to collapse in a corner at 4am until 6am then get the first bus home, a grim sight. Also don't be surprised if you see girls and boys walking round with no tops on, it's a very common thing although the girls WILL still be wearing bra's! Jillys gets very hot and sweaty inside so dont go wearing your nicest of clothes, it's abit grungy for that. the main room plays your general garden variety metal, the room to the right as you walk in plays hair metal, the room to the left usually has old electro and industrial and the room behind that tends to play your emo/screamo. Although all of these can change depending on the night.
