A new rock-orientated bar has opened in the city centre. Diego's Demise is located on Wood Street, next to its sister site, rock and metal venue K1 Metal Club.

Diego's Demise is open to the public but final touches are still being made to the venue. The bar's interiors are expected to be completed by next week.

Diego's Demise and K1 Metal Club are the spiritual successors of Liverpool's famous Krazyhouse venue. The people behind Krazyhouse continue to host events in the latter space including Halloween parties and reunions.

In a brief message to fans on Facebook, a Krazyhouse spokesperson said: "We said we wanted a rock club so we made K1 Metal Club. Then we said we wanted a rock bar… so we made Diego's."

Diego's Demise offers an array of food including pizza, ice cream and churros until 10pm. There are also wings served all night for only 69p alongside live bands and non-stop rock music.

Discussing the necessity for more alternative spaces, a spokesperson previously said: "Ever since The Krazyhouse closed down a few years back there hasn’t been a proper metal/rock club left in the city. There are plenty of one-off nights but there’s no singular club doing weekly events. For fans there has been nowhere left where you know that if you turn up there will always be a rock night happening.

"A few key people involved in The Krazyhouse from the 90’s through to the 2010’s met up a couple of months ago and started putting plans together for what would become the K1 Metal Club. After looking at what buildings were available to us, we decided straight away that the venue known as the Camel Club made the most sense.

"It is all part of the old Krazyhouse/Sloanes/Wilsons/Freewheelers building, so there is an awful lot of rock history in that place and on the same iconic street: there is so much history in those walls and we can’t wait to add to it. We think there is still a huge appetite for metal music in the city, across so many key demographics.

"As a team we want to cater to established fans by opening in the afternoon for those who don’t want to be staying out well past midnight. However, we won’t be closing early either."
