Mystifier London The Dome gig listings

Chatting to a friend today and I was surprised he wasn't familiar with the support bands on the incoming Death/Black metal assault that is about to hit the capital this Saturday as it's probably the strongest full line up of any gig this year.  I thought to myself if he isn't familiar with the supports, then how many others are not familiar with them?  So without further ado here's some info and music from all the bands playing this KILLER show hitting London this Saturday. See you in the pit \m/

First band up is Zom.  Formed in Ireland in...

LIVE REVIEW: Incineration Festival with Taake, Malignancy and more

Incineration Festival 2014 gig listings

Incineration Festival: it does exactly what it says on the tin. Inside the sauna-like confines of the Highbury Garage, fifteen bands from six countries play two stages; melting more faces than the Ark of The Covenant.

Help kin Hell Fest out

Kin Hell fest

This month saw 'kin Hell Fest take place in Leeds.  I've heard feedback from those that went to it saying it was an awesome event, but unfortunately for the promoters not enough people went and they lost some money.  When I say some money, I mean shit tons of money, I'm talking 5 figures, they've lost £12,000!!  The promoters spent a year pushing the event without corporate backing and have come away with a life changing debt.  Be it bad timing, other events going on the same weekend or whatever this is a...
