London Metal Gig Guide 24/07/26

Almost didn’t get to the gig guide this week but managed to throw it together last minute. Interesting mix of shows this week with a couple of showcases at the Cart and Horses in Stratford. Always good to see an iconic venue like the Cart and Horses, famous for being the launchpad of Iron Maiden putting the spotlight on the next generation.

As it’s the one-year anniversary of the Ozzy’s death, both Hegis (Saturday £8.24 via Dice) in Hackney and the Imperial Place of Big Red (Friday, free entry) in Camden have tribute nights in honour of him.

I mentioned it last week but Sunday will be the matinee showcase headlined by Call of Fenrir, which is family friendly, of course young scrotes need to be accompanied by an adult. Personally, I’m going to be lurking around the Dev on Saturday for Red Eyed Cult but, there is also some mystic Asian badassery happening, with two gigs from the world tour from Isileil which I hadn’t heard of until today. Certialy seems worth checking out although not really my jam.

As usual I may have missed something so if I have, or you’re a promotor or a band with a gig that needs a bit of exposure please DM me and follow me on Instagram at the_grimm_vegan

W hilst  my personal life currently in  tatters,   it's  been difficult to get my head together long enough to get a blog together. But its Friday,  I'm  suspended from work till fuck knows when so,  going to  hyper focus on this for a  bit. There are three straight nights of  Thrash/ Deathcore / Hardcore /Death Metal   at the Dev .  Symbyote  are playing  Friday and Sunday  supporting 1986  with vocalist Dan’s other band the Slaughtering  with whom he plays guitar. Saturday  will be Thrash heavy with   Halberd   and  the aptly named  Thrash  Mob  along with one man battering machine Heart Ripper .  And  that's  just the Dev... As usual I may have missed a gig or two but feel free to give me a nudge if you know of something even if  it's  a few weeks from now.  Just  in case  someone is  actually reading  this Deity and...

Last couple of weeks have been kind of quiet, apart from Iron Maiden, SOAD and Metallica rolling into town, and I’ve been dealing with personal shit so not really been that focused. Back on it this week even if just to feel a little bit useful. A lot going on Saturday. I’m going to be at the Dev for Regicide and Halberd as I can’t afford either of the two gigs I wanted to hit. One of them being Æl-Fierlan at Helgi’s. Been wanting to see them live for a while now and their album is on constant rotation. Saying that, I keep seeing them described as Post Black Metal when I thought they were Dark Gothic Metal with some Folk Horror undertones. Either way I highly recommend them. The other gig I wanted to check out is Rise of the Valkyries who host gigs ‘celebrating women and non-binary Metalheads.’ This will be their third edition and it’s a great lineup including The Silent Era, Maatkare and the Slaughtering. There's also something violent looking over at the New River Studios where th...
