Live Nation presents CORROSION OF CONFORMITY plus RITUAL KING at The Dome

Corrosion of Conformity (also known as C.O.C.), was founded in North Carolina by guitarist Woody Weatherman in the early 1980s as one of the first punk metal fusion bands. C.O.C. were known in their early years for their aggressive sound, their clever political lyrics and their willingness to turn away from hardcore and metal conventions. Their shift to a more essential and reduced sound (kind of a deep-South Black Sabbath) in the 1990s brought them closer to the alternative metal zeitgeist and gave them some favors within the mainstream scene.

Starbenders are a rock-n-roll dream come true for every hard luck dreamer occupying this third stone from the sun. Singer/songwriter Kimi Shelter is the love child Johnny Thunders and Joan Jett should have had, raised with an impeccable education from Blondie Elementary School, Def Leppard High, Bowie College, and a Ph.D from Siouxie Sioux University in Fuck All Y’all.

Another album’s worth of new material is currently awaiting release. With a work ethic as relentless as their fabulous vision, there is much more magic yet to come.

Live Nation presents PERIPHERY with special guests OBEYER live The Dome

Washington, D.C.'s Periphery push at the boundaries of progressive metal, utilising detuned, extended-range instruments to create a sound that's as technically dizzying as it is relentlessly heavy. Using a framework laid down by djent pioneers like Meshuggah and running wild with it, the group issued an eponymous debut in 2010. Periphery hit their stride with the double-LP Juggernaut (2015) and the diverse Periphery III: Select Difficulty (2016), the latter of which earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance. The band elicited accolades on subsequent efforts, Periphery IV: Hail Stan (2019) and Periphery V: Djent Is Not a Genre (2023), for their commitment to innovation and experimentation.

Live Nation presents
BLACK VEIL BRIDES plus support SAINT AGNES live at The Dome

Before the birth of the BVB Army, the countless fan tattoos, and the gold and platinum records that followed, Black Veil Brides was simply a dark vision dreamed up by an only child in Cincinnati, Ohio.

VINDICATE, the band’s seventh album, harnesses the blend of grandeur and intimacy at the heart of the band’s melodic, metallic sound. Each song on the album explores belief and distinct expressions of revenge, tracing a clear throughline across Black Veil Brides’ history and distilling the emotional instincts that have defined every era into their most focused and resonant form.

Born Again Concerts and Old Empire proudly present AGRICULTURE with special guests HEALING WOUND live at The Dome

Agriculture’s formation mirrors their duality. What began as a loose collaboration between Kern Haug and Dan Meyer in the Los Angeles noise scene evolved into a shared pursuit of the sublime through heavy music. With the additions of Richard Chowenhill and Leah Levinson, the project solidified into the band’s current form. The ecstatic black metal foundation that was laid on 2022’s The Circle Chant expanded into something more precise and far-reaching on their 2023 self-titled full-length, and deepened further with 2024’s Living Is Easy: a record that embraced devotional intensity and radiant heaviness in equal measure.

Agriculture’s writing process is built on dismantling and revision of self. Dan and Leah bring songs to the band and then allow them to be pulled apart and rebuilt communally: reshaped through conflict, repetition, and deep trust. Richard adds guitar melodies and solos, and Kern constructs rhythms which are sometimes familiar but often unconventional. Finally, with Richard producing, the final form of each song is realised through intense collaborative work in the studio. Although a time consuming and ego-frustrating process, this allows the band to find the spirit of the songs not through inspiration, but through persistence.

Outbreak Fest Presents BALANCE & COMPOSURE plus supports GLITTERER live at The Dome

We are proud to announce that ahead of their highly anticipated set at Outbreak this year, Balance & Composure will be treating us to an exclusive warm-up show. With the emo/post-hardcore/alt-rock outfit titans last headlining the UK in 2024, this show is set to be a special one.

Formed in 2007 after the breakup of two local Doylestown, Pennsylvania bands, Balance & Composure is comprised of Jon Simmons (guitar, vocals), Andy Slaymaker (guitar, vocals), Erik Petersen (guitar), Matt Warner (bass), and Dennis Wilson (drums), all of whom were familiar figures on the local indie scene. Developing an effective, muddy, emo, hardcore post-grunge sound, the band released the I Just Want to Be Pure EP in 2008, following it up with several EPs and full-length releases including, Separation, The Things We Think We’re Missing and Light We Made, with each record introducing new sonic elements to their world.

After their farewell tour in 2019, the band’s 2024 LP With You In Spirit marked a thrilling return to form. This momentum surged through 2025 with a string of new singles, setting the stage for an extensive 2026 global tour across Europe, Latin America, and the UK.

Live Nation Presents DEATHBYROMY plus support JAYDEN HAMMER live at The Dome

Her upcoming Manic Dream Tour (2026) will usher in a bold new era of her evolution.

Live Nation presents THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT with special guests THE HOWLING live at Downstairs at The Dome

Greetings from Suffocate City, The Funeral Portrait’s first full-length for Better Noise Music, expands the group’s mythology to new heights and dimensions with invigorating, authentic, and passionate anthems. Songs like “Alien,” “Voodoo Doll,” “You’re So Ugly When You Cry” (featuring The Used’s Bert McCracken), and the title track (featuring Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills) fuse the vibrant accessibility of Active Rock with the earnest honesty once screamed at the Warped Tour of the 2000s.

Steadily growing since the band’s formation in 2014, The Coffin Crew is a worldwide assemblage of devotees united in the shared catharsis of The Funeral Portrait’s music. It’s a tight-knit fandom built in the spirit of AFI’s Despair Faction, the MCRmy, the BVB Army, and Ice Nine Kills’ Psychos. It’s a diverse and welcoming community bound by perseverance through adversity and heartbreak.

Heralded as “the inspiring antidote to stagnant metalcore” by Alternative Press early into their career, the band eventually made their way onto SiriusXM Octane and episodes of All Elite Wrestling.

DHP presents THE DATSUNS live at The Dome

New Zealand hard rock outfit the Datsuns blazed onto the scene in the early 2000s with their no-frills take on sleazy garage rock, echoing a sound similar to contemporaries like the White Stripes, Jet, and Wolfmother. Their self-titled 2002 debut would prove to be their big breakthrough and peak in popularity in the mainstream, riding high on singles "MF from Hell" and "Lady."

Now, The Datsuns are gearing up for another run of UK shows, hitting London on the 8th of July 2026!

Old Empire & Doomstar present SIGH plus CRAVEN IDOL live Downstairs at The Dome

Sigh were formed in April of 1990 and did two demos before the 'Requiem for Fools' 7"EP on Wild Rags, which led them to sign to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions.
The debut album 'Scorn Defeat' was recorded in 1993 by Mirai Kawashima (Ba, Vo), Satoshi Fujinami (Dr) and Shinichi Ishikawa (G), but Euronoymous was murdered before its release, and Voices of Wonder Records took over DSP and released 'Scorn Defeat.'

Sigh then moved to Cacophonous Records and released 4 albums, ‘Infidel Art’  (1995), ‘Ghastly Funeral Theatre’ (1996 mini album), ‘Hail Horror Hail’ (1997) and ‘Scenario IV: Dread Dreams’ (1999).

'Hail Horror Hail' was chosen as one of the most important 100 heavy metal albums of the nineties in UK’s Terrorizer Magazine. 

Sigh then signed to Century Media Records and released 'Imaginary Sonicscape' in 2001. The album was again well received worldwide. 

Sigh have experienced lots of US/ Europe tours including the festival appearances such as Hellfest (France), Graspop Metal Meeting (Belgium), Brutal Assault Open Air (Czech Republic), Roadburn Festival (Holland), Hammer Open Air Festival (Finland), Damnation Festival (UK), Inferno Festival (Norway), Under the Black Sun (Germany, headliner), Metal Magic Festival (Denmark, headliner), Maryland Deathfest (USA) and many more. Their show is truly theatrical and spectacular with lots of fire and blood. 

Pink Mist presents BRAID and HEY MERCEDES plus supports live at The Dome

Seminal US indie-emo outfit Braid at The Dome this July!

The band haven't visited UK shores in 13 YEARS, and we're stoked to host their long-awaited return to London. 

The revered Illinois band are widely considereda pillar of second-wave emo, along with similarly influential acts like the Get Up Kids, the Promise Ring and Jimmy Eat World.  Having recently celebrated 25 years of their seminal 1997 album Frame & Canvas, Braid remain a vital, restless force in the indie rock scene, their influence echoing loudly as ever.

Could you really think of a better band to join them than Hey Mercedes? The band that 3/4s of Braid created following their dissolution in 1999? You could not, and that’s a fact. Hey Mercedes released an EP on Polyvinyl and two albums on Vagrant, playing 359 shows to wide acclaim before they disbanded in 2005 without ever playing the UK. So here we have it, 20 years after they split, we have a London debut. That’s worth the entry price alone.

FORM presents Faraquet plus The Crowd Scene live at The Dome

Formed in the late ’90s in Washington, DC, Faraquet began as a low-key side project but quickly gained momentum, becoming an incubator for a group of three friends eager to create something unique.

Over the next few years, they crafted a sound that fused diverse influences, marked by dynamic shifts, intricate melodies, and a dedication to pushing the boundaries of traditional rock structures. Though their time together was brief, Faraquet left a lasting impact on the indie and progressive rock scenes.

In 2025, the band celebrated the 25th anniversary of their lone LP, The View From This Tower, released by Dischord Records. While initially somewhat overlooked, the album has since become a touchstone of ’90s experimental rock. To mark the occasion, Devin Ocampo, Jeff Boswell, and Chad Molter reunited in July 2025 for their first live performances since 2008.

Now, due popular demand, they’re coming to London for two special dates!

Boston Arms and The Phoenix presents THE PHOENIX ROCKABILLY CLUB - DJ's Playing Records DAVE CROZIER, LITTLE CARL, SLIM TIM, TALL MARK live at The Dome

The Boston Arms & Phoenix Rockabilly Clubs are uniting for one Unforgettable Saturday Night

In a move that will get the scene buzzin' the legendary Boston Arms Rockabilly Club and the Superb Phoenix Rockabilly Club are joining forces for one very special Saturday night. This rare collaboration promises a no-holds-barred onslaught of Rockabilly, Rock & Roll and Rockin' Blues — the kind of event that will be talked about long after the last tune has faded out. 

A Meeting of Icons

The Boston Arms Rockabilly Club has long been one of the original stomping grounds of the UK’s rockabilly scene, known for its authenticity, atmosphere, history and a loyal crowd. The Phoenix Rockabilly Club, meanwhile, has built its reputation on strong events, fresh DJs, and a magical knack for keeping the dance floor alive. Together, they represent two distinct but complementary sides of the same coin.

What to Expect

This special night will feature the DJs from each club, each bringing their own unique twist to the event. Mark Greenaway, Timbo Slim, Little Carl and Dave Crozier. Spinning those raw driving rhythms from Hick Bop to Bo Diddley. Expect the dance floor to be packed with familiar faces and the unmistakable energy of a crowd united by the love for the music and the venue. For regulars of either club, it’s a chance to see old friends in the legendary setting of the Boston Dome  If you're newer to the scene this would be a great opportunity to soak up some history and dig some boptastic tunes on rock n roll hallowed ground ! 

Why It Matters

Collaborations like this are pretty rare, and they remind us of the power of great music to bring people together. By combining their strengths, the Boston Arms and Phoenix Rockabilly clubs are not just hosting a night out — they’re creating a moment in our history. When the lights dim and the first notes ring out, it won’t just be another Saturday night. It will be a celebration of everything that makes rockabilly more than just a genre — it’s our way of life!

DHP presents FRANKIE AND THE WITCH FINGERS plus supports live at The Dome

Los Angeles psych-punk shapeshifters Frankie and the Witch Fingers have spent the last decade mutating their sound into bold, electrifying new forms.

Their latest release, Trash Classic (via Greenway Records and The Reverberation Appreciation Society), plunges into a sewer-slick fusion of proto-punk venom, fractured new wave, and industrial grime. Brimming with wiry synths, angular melodies, and grooves that squirm and bite, it’s all delivered with a sly, playful wink.

Fueled by relentless global touring and a fierce DIY ethos, the band has shared stages with OFF!, Ty Segall, Oh Sees, Cheap Trick, and ZZ Top, cementing their place as one of the most unforgettable live acts around.

Frankie and the Witch Fingers continue to morph, dragging listeners into whatever warped direction their experimental journey takes next.

Born Again Concerts proudly present ARNOCORPS - The 20th Anniversary of the First Summer Blockbuster UK Tour live Downstairs at the Dome

ACTION, ADVENTURE, HARDCORE, ROCK ‘N’ ROLL! LIVE!

Commemorating the 20th anniversary of their inaugural UK Tour and the 2006 international release of their LP "The Greatest Band of All Time,” the last action rock heroes of ArnoCorps finally return! Limited full-blown live audio assaults have been scheduled throughout the United Kingdom. Performing their hits: Total Recall, Predator, and I’m Ballsy!

FANCY DRESS ENCOURAGED!

Although known for hurling volunteer audience members record distances and crowdsurfing on top of their guitar cases in displays of superhuman athleticism, there is no need to fear ArnoCorps‘ explosive performances; they are a rescue team, not assassins. The spectacle extends beyond the stage as attendees of ArnoCorps’ fabled live audio assaults are frequently adorned in camouflage face paint and uniforms that rival the adventure-ready appearance of the band themselves. A welcoming and inclusive atmosphere greets newcomers amidst a frenzy of bonding and unity under the ArnoCorps banner of ballsy defiance. Experiencing “the pump” is inevitable through crowd participation, including on-stage callisthenics challenges and impromptu bodybuilding posedown competitions.

The 2026 Summer Blockbuster UK Anniversary Tour coincides with ArnoCorps' latest release "BIG NOODLE ENERGY" on Jello Biafra’s legendary Alternative Tentacles Records. The new songs expose the shameless appropriation of ballsy alpine culture used to advertise noodles and energy drinks on Japanese television in the 80s and 90s. Yosh!

Born Again Concerts presents 200 STAB WOUNDS plus guests CELESTIAL SANCTUARY and MUTAGENIC HOST live Downstairs at the Dome

Cleveland death metal legends-in-waiting 200 Stab Wounds have returned with Manual Manic Procedures, a superlative sophomore effort that follows 2021′s Slave to the Scalpel, their tour de force debut. The new album is a brutal slab of old school death metal with a contemporary edge. Not for the faint-hearted, Manual Manic. Procedures may well be the album that puts classic gore-themed ferocity back into the metal community’s collective consciousness.

Slave to the Scalpel saw 200 Stab Wounds insinuate themselves into the minds of extreme metal fans, leading to praise from Pitchfork for their “unpretentious brilliance, pitch-black sense of humor” and an “aesthetic that’s built around a chugging, groovy riff that stomps down a path of destruction.” Manual Manic Procedures sees the band upping the ante both musically and lyrically.

Born Again Concerts presents Shade of Sorrow: Final Rites CRYPTA plus support live at Downstairs at the Dome

Crypta is a Brazilian female Death Metal band, recognized worldwide. Founded in 2019 by Fernanda Lira (bass and vocals) and Luana Dametto (drums), alongside guitarist Tainá Bergamaschi, invited to join the band in 2020, Crypta consolidated its line-up and released, in 2021, the acclaimed debut album “Echoes of the Soul”, released by the Austrian label Napalm Records. The album reached relevant positions in international charts, such as Germany and Switzerland, and drew attention for its sound and visual work.

The second album, “Shades of Sorrow”, released in 2023, reaffirmed the band's prominence on the global scene. In addition to entering significant charts in the US, Europe and Latin America, the album was among the 50 best albums of 2023, according to the São Paulo Association of Art Critics (APCA).

With the album, Crypta also debuted on the US Billboard, something rarely achieved by Brazilian metal bands. The band was on 7 charts in the US, 6 in Canada, 2 in England, and also in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

In 2025, the band were on the road with new tours in Latin America, Europe, the United States, Canada and Brazil, while preparing their third album, scheduled for release in 2026.

Human_Disease_Promo and TBH present COFFINS plus support from SKUMHAMMER live Downstairs at the Dome

Japanese death metal trio Coffins came into being in 1996 after both a name and a lineup change. Originally formed under the name Compromise You Need and taking its musical cues from Swans and Scorn, the group changed its name to Coffins in 1996 and played its first show under the new moniker in December 1997. At the time, Uchino (guitar, vocals) played drums. He moved into position as frontman in 1999 when the band recruited You (drums) to replace him behind the kit. That same year also saw the band shift toward a doom metal sound inspired by Cathedral and Kyuss. However, all of the members were also working with other acts, and Coffins went on hiatus in 2000. The members regrouped in 2003, completed their musical shift into death metal, and brought Sentou aboard as bassist. Their first full-length album, Mortuary in Darkness, was released on the U.S. label Razorback in 2005; in December of the same year, Sentou left Coffins, citing musical differences. He was replaced on bass by Koreeda, who joined a month later and helped Coffins release their second album, The Other Side of Blasphemy, in September 2006. Two years later, Buried Death was released on the 20 Buck Spin label.

DHP presents THE TONY DANZA TAPDANCE EXTRAVAGANZA plus GOD COMPLEX and BOUND IN FEAR live at The Dome

Bad Vibrations presents PROSTITUTE plus supports live at The Dome

Formed in 2020 in Dearborn, Michigan, Prostitute is an experimental post-punk and Arab rock band. Born out of the isolation of the COVID-19 lockdown, the band’s debut album, Attempted Martyr, was written in the midst of global and personal turmoil, capturing the zeitgeist of a world unraveling. A loose concept record, it chronicles the rise and fall of a doomed zealot whose pursuit of holy vengeance spirals into a psychotic orgy of violence, greed, and lust.

The band was initially formed by Moe Kazra who enlisted childhood friends Andrew Kaster and Dylan Zaranski, with Ross Babinski and Bret Wall later completing the lineup. Together, they self-funded the album, working with legendary engineer Chris Koltay to shape a sound that's both abrasive and hypnotic—an unrelenting blend of warped guitars, primitive basslines, frenzied drumming, and corrosive synthesizers, interwoven with samples from diverse cultures, ranging from African to Middle Eastern and East Asian influences.

Tracks like “All Hail” (inspired by the 1977 Hanafi Siege of Washington D.C.) immerses listeners in a volatile, hostage-like environment. "Judge" channels Milton's Satan in a chilling rallying cry, while “Body Meat” grapples with religious desperation and the tenuous boundary between faith and madness. Khachab and Kaster’s lyrics have been described by Pitchfork as "disturbingly poetic" with the ability to "lacerate with image alone." Crude sloganeering and scenes of horrific violence are juxtaposed with literary allusion and Islamic symbolism, creating what the band calls a "theatricalization of terrorism." Through this lens, they examine and critique the xenophobic stereotypes targeted at Arabs, distorting them into grotesque caricatures.

Over the past four years, Prostitute has established a reputation for their punishing, high-energy performances. The band’s live shows, described as “dangerous” and “volatile”, finds Moe delivering politically charged sermons atop a deafening bacchanal of sound. In 2023, Prostitute performed at the re-opening of the iconic UFO Bar in Detroit, followed by a series of benefit concerts for Palestine, Lebanon, and Sudan. These performances solidified their growing presence, leading to invites to play at No Rest Fest and New Colossus Festival.

As Prostitute continues work on their sophomore album, they are delving deeper into electronic and Arabic dance influences, drawing inspiration from the ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon. Their sound continues to evolve, with new tracks incorporating dabke rhythms, Arabesque melodicism, and industrial synth textures, all while retaining the same anarchic energy that defines their unique sound.

Winning critical praise for 2007’s self-titled debut and 2021’s Hologram, the trio are most renowned for the chaos of their live shows, where a tidal wave of feedback, high-impact visuals and guitar smashing are the norm.

SJM Concerts presents Arcy Drive plus supports live Downstairs at The Dome

A few years back, a collective of four close friends rallied together in a Northport, NY, attic, wrote a bunch of songs, hopped in a renovated school bus, and brought their music right to the people. Attracting a cult following, Arcy Drive’s signature brand of “attic rock” has resonated with fans and tastemakers alike, yielding nearly 100 million cumulative streams, amassing a combined following of 590K-plus on social media, packing endless sold-out shows, and attracting massive co-signs courtesy of Noah Kahan, Marcus Mumford, and more.

The four-piece band—Nick Mateyunas, Austin Jones, Patrick Helrigel, and Brooke Tuozzo—have naturally evolved across a series of independent releases, including the live album Attic Sessions [2022], the Beach Plum EP [2023], and their first full-length offering The Pit [2025]. Emerging as a force of nature on stage, the group impressively sold out their 2025 North American headline run, The Pit Tour Pt. 1, graced the bills of festivals including Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Outside Lands, and even shut down Los Angeles’s Venice Boardwalk with a pop-up show in front of 1k-plus fans. At this year’s Out of the Blue Festival, they hit the stage with Noah Kahan, Mumford, and Caamp—appearing four times in total throughout the day. Between launching The Pit Tour Pt. 2 in the United States and preparing for major festivals, including Governors Ball, Bonnaroo, Borderland, Highwater, Rolling Stone’s Stateside Festival, Austin City Limits, and more, the band now makes their Atlantic Records debut with the release of “one'n a million” and more to come.

Their sound is massive, yes — towering riffs and crushing low end — but beneath the volume lies vulnerability. When they hit, it feels like standing in a storm that somehow holds you upright.

Bulbul, underground lifers from Austria, have built their legacy the hard way — through decades of stubborn independence and fearless experimentation. Hypnotic, abrasive, uncompromising, they prove that repetition can become ritual, and noise can become transcendence. They are a reminder that art survives because people refuse to let it die.

 With sparse need for words, Confusion Master speak through colossal instrumental passages that blur the line between doom, sludge and psychedelic drift. Their music feels like a slow-burning horizon — meditative, heavy, and deeply human. It’s the sound of patience meeting power.

 UK powerhouse Noisepicker brings grit, groove and heart. Road-worn, hook-laden and unapologetically loud, they channel the raw pulse of heavy rock ’n’ roll into something immediate and communal. Sweat on the walls. Smiles in the crowd. Riffs that feel like old friends.

 And then there’s Endure - a new chapter written by members of Hands Of Omega. Born from experience, loss, growth and persistence, Endure embody an evolving spirit: heavy, honest, and driven by connection.

 Love.Noise.Freedom isn’t about hype. It’s about shared vans, shared stages, shared stories. It’s about a label that built its reputation on loyalty and artistic freedom, finally bringing its community across the Channel. This is about showing up. For the music. For each other. For the idea that independent art still matters — not as nostalgia, but as necessity.

 One day. One stage. One circle of trust. A gathering.

London, get ready to feel what Exile On Mainstream has always stood for: LOVE. NOISE. FREEDOM.

Born Again Concerts proudly presents HAVOK with very special guests BLOOD RED THRONE, XONOR and ERADIKATED live at The Dome

We can only move forward when we understand what came before. Havok possess an airtightgrasp on the fundamentals of thrash, enabling them to usher the genre into the fire of the future.

The Colorado quartet lock and load throat-slicing guitars with breakneck rhythms and venomously vitriolic vocals. After piling up tens of millions of streams and earning acclaim from Metal Hammer, Loudwire, Consequence of Sound, and many more, the band ignited their first independent release, the New Eyes EP, in 2024.

Havok have never stopped pushing forward without apology. Thus far, they’ve unleashed a series of fan favorite albums, including Burn [2009], Time Is Up [2011], Unnatural Selection [2013], Conformicide [2017], and V [2020]. The latter represented a critical high watermark with Metal Hammer proclaiming, “Havok have nailed 21st century thrash.”

Along the way, the group also lit up stages on tour around the world with the likes of Megadeth, Anthrax, Suicidal Tendencies, Testament, Killswitch Engage, Exodus, Sepultura, Kreator, Children Of Bodom, and many more.

Kickstarting this next era with worldwide touring and new music coming in 2026 Havok has enabled itself to move at a prolific pace. In the end, Havok are leveling up and taking thrash with them.

Eat Your Own Ears presents PIP BLOM plus special guest MARSY live at The Dome

Pip Blom has been crafting their own brand of indie pop for ten years, constantly pushing into new territory. What started as Pip Blom's DIY project has grown into a staple of the European indie scene, with a sound that has picked up more and more electronic influences along the way. To mark their 10th anniversary, they're releasing the EP PB10 — a collection of older songs reimagined in a fresh new form.

There's an extra special twist for the show: original drummer Gini Cameron will be stepping behind the kit for a two-night-only return in Amsterdam and London. Expect the band to dig deep into the archive for this milestone show, bringing back songs that haven't been played live in years.

Action! presents MYRATH plus ROSES OF THIEVES live Downstairs at The Dome

Forged between France and Tunisia, Myrath has emerged as one of the most distinctive forces in modern metal. Blending razor-sharp riffs, cinematic orchestrations, and the hypnotic pulse of African, Indian, and European traditions, their music is not a calculated fusion but a natural expression of diverse roots. Fans and critics alike simply call it Blazing Desert Metal.

Myrath’s story is one of resilience. During the Tunisian revolution, the band wrote Tales of the Sands (2011) while protecting their homes by day and composing music by night; a defining moment that still echoes through their sound. Since then, they have conquered international stages from Hellfest to Japan, Europe, and the Americas. In 2022, they made history by performing at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar, reaching millions worldwide.

Their latest release, Karma (2024), marked a rebirth; a bombastic, arena-ready album that reaffirmed their reputation for innovation. Looking ahead, Myrath is preparing their most ambitious project yet: a new album set for 2026, featuring a special duet with Elize Ryd from the band Amaranthe.

More than a band, Myrath is a testament to how music born from struggle and identity can transcend borders and generations.

Metropolis presents SHELF LIVES plus support from LUCKY IRIS and GREEBO live Downstairs at The Dome

Shelf Lives is an Electro-Bass Punk band, which is definitely not a real genre. After a few years of creating, releasing and caring-ish what everyone thinks, they now don't (at all) but are obsessed with experimenting and embracing authentically whatever they feel. The objective is clear and the boundaries intentional; the point is to get every listener to feel something, whether it’s bad or good, whether they want to or not.

On the face of it, Shelf Lives make catchy, energetic tunes that bring the abrasiveness and physicality of punk back to a small, cramped house party setting. It’s music so rowdy you can practically feel the sweat on the ceiling and the sound of crushed cans under your feet.

Though Shelf Lives haven’t been a band for long, they’ve already played acclaimed sets at Glastonbury, Boomtown, Kendall Calling, TGE, SXSW, New Colossus, 2000 Trees, YNOT and headlined the Rising Stage at Green Man, have supported the likes of Skunk Anansie, Lambrini Girls, Sprints, Panic Shack, Jehnny Beth, The Kills, Lynx and more. Joined fellow confrontational noise-makers Bob Vylan and HO99O9 on the cover of Gigwise, had a spread in NME and praise and features in Clash, DIY, UPSET, Dork, Line of Best Fit and on BBC R1 Jack Saunders, Jess Iszatt, Steve Lamacq and more.

Just when you think you’ve figured them out… they slip into the next phase with a grin and no intention of slowing down.

Artist Statement:

"We've made the decision to reschedule a couple of our shows Our London headline show is moving to October 8th and a new date for Dublin will be announced soon. Same energy. Different date!
All existing tickets remain valid for the new date. Refunds are available from point of purchase if needed."

Born Again Concerts proudly presents STILL BROKE 25th ANNIVERSARY TOUR – playing the album in its entirety HED PE aka (Hed)p.e. & COLD live at The Dome

Legendary Southern California G-punk pioneers (Hed)p.e. were known for their raw, brutal honesty, raunchy lyrics, and often outlandish sense of humor. During their rise amid the nu-meal ranks, (Hed)p.e. shows often united fans and were a giant middle finger to the corporate rock that was ruling the airwaves in the late 90s and early 2000s. (Hed)p.e's defiant attitude, chaotic energy and groove is what people related to, as well as earned them the respect of fellow musicians like Jonathan Davis from Korn, M. Shadows from Avenged Sevenfold, and Chester Bennington from Linkin Park.

(Hed) P.E are the pioneers of the G-Punk sound, which fuses together punk-rock, metal, hip-hop and reggae. The band has toured the world for 20 years sharing the stage with the likes of Suicidal Tendencies, System of a Down, KORN, Tech N9ne, Motley Crue as well as the original Black Sabbath on the iconic Ozzfest tour. (Hed) P.E experienced a creative resurgence after signing with Suburban Noize Records in the early 2000s and was instrumental in developing the booming underground scene. The band recently released a new album “DETOX” in December via Suburban Noize Records.

Bird On The Wire presents ULRIKA SPACEK at The Dome

Ulrika Spacek is a British experimental rock band from London, known for their hypnotic blend of jagged guitar textures and dreamlike atmospherics. There’s a strange comfort in Ulrika Spacek’s dissonance, since emerging from the shadows of a creaking East London house known only as “KEN,” the band has quietly built a reputation for turning existential inertia into sound.Formed in 2014 by Rhys Edwards and Rhys Williams, Ulrika Spacek began as an insular project and has remained defiantly self-contained with the addition of Joseph Stone, Callum Brown, Syd Kemp and Rhys Jenkins.Debut album The Album Paranoia (2016) introduced listeners to a meticulously crafted world of off-kilter melodies and enveloping drones. It was followed by Modern English Decoration (2017), a critically acclaimed second LP that pushed their sound into more refined and textural territory. After a period of near-silence, they returned in 2024 with Compact Trauma, an album that channeled the anxiety and dislocation of the modern age through a prismatic haze of guitars, loops, and elliptical lyrics. The music lives in the liminal space between introspection and abrasion, the melodic and the abstract. With emphasis on sonic experimentation, visual art, and immersive live performances, the band make records the way people write journals: privately, obsessively, with a sense that they may go unread. And somehow, that makes them feel even more intimate. Fourth album ‘EXPO’ is due to be released early 2026.

Born Again Concerts presents BAEST plus supports live Downstairs at The Dome

BAEST is a modern metal powerhouse from Denmark known for their explosive energy, genre-defying sound, and commanding live shows.

BAEST has performed over 350 shows, touring with Arch Enemy, Fit For An Autopsy, Krisiun, Abbath, and Entombed AD, and appearing at Wacken, Bloodstock, and Copenhell. With millions of streams and awards including GAFFAs and Artist of the Year at Den Hårde Tone, BAEST is on a bold path to global impact.

Action! presents BRIDGE CITY SINNERS + special guest MISTER JOE BLACK live at The Dome

From the misty, pine-covered hills of the Pacific Northwest hail the Bridge City Sinners. Dark Folk? Americana? Folk Punk? Pre-war era Jazz? Blackgrass? This string band bends the meaning of the word genre with their eclectic blend of styles, defying categorisation.

They started their journey by busking on street corners across the country, and now this supergroup of musicians find themselves on the national tour circuit. But the Sinners still hold true to the DIY mentality by putting albums out on their self-made record label, Flail Records. With talented musicianship and a live show full of attitude, this is one band you don’t want to miss.

Effigy presents SPARTA plus special guests HAMMOCK live Downstairs at The Dome

Sparta are back, with their all new, sixth album, ‘Cut a Silhouette’, and London headline show. Jim Ward has of course cut plenty of silhouettes, first as a vital member of pioneering post-hardcore outfit, At The Drive In, then as frontman of Sparta, as well as a handful of solo releases.

Now, in 2026, the band is completed by bassist Matt Miller and drummer, Neil Hennessy. They have made a record that’s a culmination of the perfectly imperfect chemistry that flows between them. ‘Cut a Silhouette’ is a collision of past & present, that builds off their legacy, but equally continues their evolution. This is pure, unadulterated Sparta. 

Roy Dirt Promotions presents Cockney Rejects plus supports Tear Up and The Glory  live at The Dome

The band were formed in the late ‘70’s in East London as an answer to the art school punk that had dominated the scene up until then.

With the fractionalization of the late ‘70’s and early ‘80’s now gone for good, with every gig becoming a party for fans and band alike, the Cockney Rejects go from strength to strength.

The new lineup features Olga (Toy Dolls), JJ Kaos (The Last Resort) and Ray Dust (The Business, Argy Bargy & Knuckledust) and of course, the powerhouse that is Jeff ‘Stinky’ Turner on vocals.

Support comes from the amazing Tear UP and The Glory.

Born Again Concerts proudly presents ACRES ‘THE HOST UK/EU TOUR 2026’ with special guests WAYSIDE, WHAT LIES BELOW and LIFESPARK live Downstairs at The Dome

Acres process universal struggles, raw emotion, and life’s trials and tribulations through an unpredictable and undeniable hybrid of insurgently catchy melodies, neck-breaking grooves, and disarmingly seductive soundscapes.

Audiences initially fell under the UK band’s spell in 2019 when they unveiled the fan favorite Lonely World. After grinding on the road, they made significant strides with 2023’s Burning Throne. “My Everything” reeled in 2.6 million Spotify streams followed by “Hold On” with another 2 million Spotify streams. KERRANG! applauded how, “Acres display their potential with some big choruses to match,” and WHEN THE HORN BLOWS hailed Burning Throne as “a classic metalcore album filled with swinging hooks, rough riffs, popping electronic elements and lovely vocals that turn into monster screams.”

In 2025, the rapidly rising quartet—Ben Lumber, Alex Freeman, Jack Rogers, Ash Scott—rally around a spirit of sonic evolution on their third full-length album, The Host [Solid State]. Working with The Plot In You frontman Landon Tewers behind the board as producer, the band creatively level up as they deliver a caustic, catchy, and conceptual body of work primed to provoke thought and feeling in equal measure. This era begins with the single “Bloodlust” and much more to come.

Born Again Concerts proudly presents CRUCIFIED BARBARA plus support live Downstairs at The Dome

Crucified Barbara is an all-female Swedish hard rock and heavy metal band formed in Stockholm in 1998 . Initially rooted in punk, they quickly embraced a heavier sound, blending hard rock with metal and trash sensibilities. The quartet—Mia Coldheart (lead vocals,lead  guitar), Klara Force (guitar), Ida Evileye (bass), and Nicki Wicked (drums)—released four acclaimed studio albums between 2005 and 2014: In Distortion We Trust, ’Til Death Do Us Party, The Midnight Chase, and In The Red .

Despite widespread worldwide touring—including festival appearances and a stint in Melodifestivalen—they disbanded in 2016, citing burnout and a loss of joy in playing together  

In a heartfelt turn, the original lineup announced a reunion in October 2024 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, planning a comeback at Sweden Rock Festival in June 2025 . Vocalist Mia describes the reunion as feeling “like coming home” after reconnecting with her bandmates over a beer, rehearsing, and rediscovering their shared passion.  

Their long-awaited return became a reality: on June 7, 2025, they performed their first show in over nine years at Sweden Rock Festival to an emotional reception. The reunion has continued with appearances at other festivals such as Resurrection Fest (Spain), La Guerre Du Son (France), and Skogsröjet (Sweden) and plans are in the making for 2026!

Slam Dunk presents SHORELINE plus supports live Downstairs at The Dome

SHORELINE was formed in 2015 out of a desire to be an active part of the scene back home in Münster. First demo songs on YouTube and plenty of DIY diligence soon got the band on the road. With the EP ‘You Used To Be A Safe Place’ (Uncle M Music, 2018) and their debut album ‘Eat My Soul’ (Uncle M Music, 2019), they quickly grew beyond the status of an insider tip. The follow-up ‘Growth’ (End Hits Records, 2022) further develops the band's political side after the pandemic years, including songs about animal rights (Meat Free Youth) and anti-Asian racism (Konichiwa).

With their third album, ‘To Figure Out’, SHORELINE gained attention beyond Europe's borders when they became the first German band to release an album on the US label Pure Noise Records.

Bad Vibrations presents THE MOONLANDINGZ plus Y and TURNSPIT live at The Dome

Comprising members of agit-punks Fat White Family and synth prog group Eccentronic Research Council, the Moonlandingz began life as a fictional band on the ERC's 2015 album, Johnny Rocket, Narcissist & Music Machine...I'm Your Biggest Fan.

A tale of a female fan stalking her favorite singer, Johnny Rocket, of her favorite band, the outer space rockabilly Moonlandingz, the ERC needed someone to play the band, so they brought in Saul Adamczewski and Lias Saoudi of Fat White Family to help out. They recorded an EP to go along with the album and then, buoyed by the experience, everyone involved decided to take it one step further and make the Moonlandingz a real live band. The resulting album, Interplanetary Class Classics, was released in early 2017 on Chimera Music. They toured the U.K. and Europe, then released the This Cities Undone EP late in the year. Their last shows of 2017 were billed as possibly their last ever, as the bandmembers resolved to return to their regular gigs. Their record label wasn’t ready to say goodbye, however, and in early 2018 released a deluxe edition of Interplanetary Class Classics that came with a second disc of remixes, demos, and stray tracks.

In 2025, they returned with a new album, No Rocket Required.

His projects DON’T WORRY, I’LL BE FINE (2024) and AM I DREAMING? (2025) dive into anxiety, self-doubt, and release, helping shape the WesGhost Collective—a fan community built around feeling seen rather than fitting in. With a co-sign from Blackbear, a Diplo collaboration on “Psychward,” and his latest single “GASLIGHT” pushing his sound even further, WesGhost continues to break genre rules while keeping his world rooted in honesty, intensity, and togetherness—with a world tour set to be announced soon.

Dictionary Pudding presents GONG plus supports live at The Dome

The universe of Gong began in 1969 when Daevid Allen was inspired by a profound psychedelic vision. A founder member of Soft Machine, Allen incorporated his spiritual and metaphysical leanings into an evolving collective, more a mythology than a band in the conventional sense.

The current incarnation, who were put together by Daevid before his swansong album with Gong, ‘I See You’, honour his intention that Gong do not die with him, urging the band to “carry it on into new unknown heights and depths far beyond anything I could ever imagine myself”.

The collective is the most stable in Gong’s illustrious history, having written, recorded and toured together for eleven years since Allen’s passing. A dynamic, powerful and explosive live band, their music draws from the credo of the original Gong while remaining committed to pushing the composition, performances and message into new realms, paying no mind to nostalgia. Gong in 2026 continue the ethics, attitude and lifestyle that was always woven into the fabric of the band.

Bad Vibrations Presents PIGEON plus support live at The Dome

Cosmic exploration. Spiritual transformation. Unbridled spontaneity. These are the guiding principles of Pigeon, a psychedelic five-piece rooted in the English seaside town of Margate, yet making music that transcends borders.

Their debut album, OUTTANATIONAL, is a thrilling collection of party songs without limits: think William Onyeabor in outer-space or early Hot Chip making motorik afrobeat in a 70s New York loft. Building on a string of acclaimed EPs that have been playlisted on 6Music and led to coveted live slots at UK festivals like Glastonbury, Pigeon have evolved out of Afro-disco territory into something moodier. It’s an expansive record laced with heady krautrock, post-punk and punk-funk, indebted to the power of the groove and questing to find the meaning of home.

Pigeon must fly. 

Academy Events presents MENTAL CRUELTY plus supports OV SULFUR, EXTERMINATION DISMEMBERMENT, SUNEATER live Downstairs at The Dome

Founded in 2016, the band played their way through locations in Europe, North America and Germany, and with four releases so far, they made their path into the international metal scene. Working with US Producer Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, The Browning, The Plot in You) on their last Album “A Hill To Die Upon” (2019, Unique Leader Records) they created a well-received and long lasting piece of brutality for their fans. 

Fast forward in 2022 their new vocalist Lukas Nicolai joined the ensemble for a new era with demonically vicious pipes.

This time combining the best of Deathcore and Black Metal for a match made in heaven. Emotional riffs, heavy “back to the roots” breakdowns and epic orchestral arrangements forming the fundament across genres for this LP.

Their goal is to deliver uncompromising live performances with outstanding vocals and precise instrumental work. Mental Cruelty has created a formative function in social media as well as in the metal community and plans to continue its course.

The Pad Presents & Friends introduce SKIDS/ THEATRE OF HATE - Co Headline Tour plus supports live at The Dome

Two era defining artists SKIDS & THEATRE OF HATE come together this autumn for an explosive UK co-headline tour.

The Skids formed in 1977 in their hometown of Dunfermline, Scotland by Richard Jobson, Stuart Adamson, Bill Simpson & Tom Kellichan. After releasing an independent single the band was played by John Peel, supported The Clash in concert and then were signed to Virgin Records in 1978. Their first singles were “Sweet Surburbia”, “The Saints are Coming” and “Into the Valley” – the latter reaching the UK Top Ten in early 1979.

Their seminal debut album “Scared to Dance” came out in 1979 which was quickly followed by two chart singles – “Masquerade” and “Working for the Yankee Dollar”. Both singles were taken from the Bill Nelson produced second album “Days in Europa”. The album also featured new member Rusty Egan of Rich Kids & Visage fame after the departure of Tom Kellichan. The band released two more albums “The Absolute Game” (1980) and “Joy” (1981) before splitting.

The current Skids line up sees the lineup stripped back to an explosive 4 piece with Richard Jobson, Peter Byrchmore (Membranes), Hernandez (Drums) & Connor Whyte (Guitar).
