Exile Mainstream Records presents LOVE NOISE FREEDOM FESTIVAL Downstairs at The Dome
On September 19th 2026, the Love.Noise.Freedom Festival lands in the UK for the very first time. Love.Noise.Freedom, the beating heart behind every gathering curated by Exile On Mainstream has always been a statement. A celebration of heavy music, stubborn independence, and the deep bonds that hold this scene together. And now, that legendary, road-worn, heart-driven vibe finally takes over Downstairs at the Dome in London for one intense, unifying day.
This is not a random lineup. This is family.
Might bring their uncompromising blend of crushing heaviness and raw melody — a band forged in volume and conviction, known for turning every stage into a cathartic release. Their sound balances massive riffs with emotional weight, the kind that lingers long after the amps cool down. 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.
