If you like to have a good time you have to know about this place designated in Angel so obvious it's hidden though, easier if you've heard about it, know about it or done your research not many places do this but you can bring your own alcohol although prices for drinks aren’t bad. It’s under ten pounds 4 non-members and discount for those who are members. Not your average club with a film screening, an arcade computer game and a snooker table. They play different music on different floors so take your pick including alternative and industrial. Strong powerful beats you can come with glow sticks which are very useful to dance with and work perfectly within the atmosphere. The club opens from 9pm depending on your club status you may be shocked to know they open till 7.30am yes in the morning. So you can go get yourself a drink or something to eat from Mc’d’s before making your way to the tube station.

Slimelight, also known as Slimes, is, in my opinion, the very best alternative club in all of London.
At least their djs play the best music.
Usually, there are two floors open, one where Industrial, Metal and EBM is played and one where the dj indulges in so-called powernoise and other tunes that will please the audience of cybers that usually crowd this floor.
Once a month there is a Goth floor, too, where Trad Goth and Gothic Rock is played.
A night in Slimes is really most enjoyable, that is, if you like like music and dancing.
If you like drinking too, you can buy drinks at reasonable prices in one of Slimelights three bars (there is one bar at each floor). Only you must be aware that these bars stop selling alcohol well before Slimelight closes.
Slimes ocationally plays host to events such as New Year parties and concerts likely to be performed by bands into the same musical genres as the ones being played at Slimes. At such occations you can usually buy a ticket that will give you free entry to Slimelight after the concert. Very practical.
Slimelight is an all-night venue and luckily for those who like to dance all night long, it does not close until 7.30 in the morning -which is just perfect timing seeing as Angel, which is the nearest tube station, opens at that time.

Slimelight has to be my favourite alternative club. There simply is no other Slimelight. Located down a side steet, this warehouse conversion has three floors, each with a bar, DJ, and toilets. The toilets look remarkably like a set from the 'Saw' films. They are however, suprisingly clean and unisex. The bars close at 2am but you can bring your own alcohol into the club so this isn't a problem. The Music is different on each floor and there is a mini cinema on the ground floor if you just want to chill out. I think Slimelight is an excellent venue for bands. With a friendly, fog-filled atmosphere, this place has an energetic vibe. There is a strict 'No photography' rule.

Probably the only industrial line is London repeating itself every saturday night till early morning for the past fifteen years. The slimelight started as an underground alternative nusic club playing industrial, EBM, gothic, Synthpop and rock music and today is featuring some of the best shows and concerts of bands from the scene playing those genres.

The line parties are starting every saturday night at 23:00. membership card holders are getting a certain discount at the enterance and can also apply that discount onto two friends.

Good parties! (the only similar thing in London is going on once at month at the electric ballroom in Camden Town, and that's the Inferno line)
