| Strictly speaking, this is none too goth, but hey, this is Kent so whadda you expect? Some ok drinks promos but the music is quite metal and totally mainstreamy rubbish. But worth a laugh as there's generally nothing elso to do in the area... |

| Has a great deal of potential as a venue, unfortunately this is not fulfilled. Music in the main room is very pop, considering it is an alternative club. The goth/metal room plays pretty much what one would expect, too much nu metal crap.
If you have had copious amounts of alcohol, the club is bearable. |

| Not a place for serious gothdom...with the exception of taking time out to mock the children who masquerade in black. Music is abysmal. Most you can hope for is the odd CoF track or a bit of Rob Zombie. No old-school gothic to be found here...but then we are a minority in Kent ~S~ |

| iv been goin for a while, and it has become progressionally crapper as time goes, tap n tin far better, less 12yr olds.:/ and for an alternative club it sure has a hell of a lotta trendies nowadays, wot happened to the dress code that they used to be strict on, the small room is bearable tho. but no decent mosh pit :'( |

| It is bearable (mainly because of a shocking lack of anywhere else to go) but as has been said before, the 'alternative' room is just poppy with mini-moshers all going crazy to Nirvana and the 'harder' room being only a tadge better...still, get drunk and it'll flow by |

| to many children go to the manor now, the bouncers arn't very good as 12 year olds seem to get in..... the metal room seem not to have any real metal, metallica is barely ever played and as for black metal it's completely non-exsistant. |

| You definitely need copious amounts of alcohol to appreciate the magic of subsonic... but then again you can always get a taxi home if you walk up to the station! |

| Agreed that the main room is too pop and there's too mych nu-metal and *FAR* too many minimoshers, but still a fun place to go, get drunk, and dance stupidly. |

| It was good, now it's not. That's about the long and short of it.. However, I reckon with popular demand, you can change anything. Assuming I can get my jobless arse in gear and aquire some money, some mates and I will be getting back in there and requesting the crazy hardcore tunes. Start some mosh. That sort of thing. Whoo. I mean, really. How can they call it a metal room anymore? Sodding ska room would be more apt... |

| Yay, The Manor Club has lost its late night license! But seeing as 'Subsonics' is an institution now, it will reopen elsewhere...hopefully for the better. |

| hey everyone, im new here.
i went to go to subs last friday, and because they have lost their late night license, the HAVE to have A FREE BAR AFTER 11 O'CLOCK!!
The only problem with that is, you have to turn up early otherwise you will be turned away. |

| Anyone reading this now, the club is now run under feedback @ the manorclub, no more 12 year olds and much better music as they now have new dj's in the metal room. Gigs are starting to be held in the bigger room once a month at the club check out www.feedbackpromotions.co.uk for more info on the club |
