Live music venues close to London Waterloo?

Are there any decent live music venues close to (ideally within walking distance of) London Waterloo? Looking for the sort of place that might have good quality lesser-known national bands - not bars with covers bands, nor the kind of place that crams 4 or 5 originals bands into an evening with half an hour each.

Thanks.

S.P.

depending on what your definition of stumbling distance is, Heaven is just across the Thames.  Known as a gay nightclub, but rebranding as a mainstream music venue - I'm off to the Anti-Flag/Cancer bats gig there next month:

If that's close enough, then it's only a small further stagger north to the 100 Club on Oxford Street.  Not as reliable for bands as, say, the Underworld, but still has a few recognisable names in there - Gang of Four played the other week. although the current listings include a fair amount of higher end tributes:

If you'll extend the distance to fifteen or twenty minutes on the tube then Camden is your oyster, and I'll save the links but there's the Underworld, Electric Ballroom, Roundhouse, Koko and Forum (OK.that's Kentish Town) putting on well known bands, as well as a ton of smaller places like the Dublin Castle, Barfly/Assembly, Black Heart that will have up and comers fairly regularly...and if we're including Kentish Town then the Boston Arms and Dome at Tufnell Park have a mix of big and small bands on too
