As charity fundraisers go, War Child's annual Army of You shindig is a shining example, catalysing legions of city folk to help protect endangered children in Iraq — with the help of a few awesome bands, of course. This year's party is headlined by scuzzy electro-rockers Does It Offend You, Yeah?, who will jet off to open for Bloc Party on their US tour after the benefit. Devon's the Rumble Strips, Kitsune-signed autoKratz and the fired-up songwriter Kid Harpoon also play. DJ sets courtesy of Filthy Dukes, Punks Jump Up and Camden electro-kings Adventures Close to Home keep the crowd bouncing between bands.
