Following the release of their fifth studio album Cold Like War in October last year, We Came as Romans have been back at it with a headline UK tour bringing with them bands from across the globe — Alazka, Polaris and The Plot In You.
Movements at Camden Assembly, London
I first heard of Movements earlier this year when a tour announcement piqued my curiosity and so I gave a quick listen to their first full-length album Feel Something, released on Fearless Records at the end of last year.
Casey at Rock City Basement, Nottingham
Following the recent release of Where I Go When I Am Sleeping, Casey set out for their first headline tour over Europe and the UK.
Sepultura at KOKO, London
Death makes its mark on KOKO…
Astroid Boys at Rescue Rooms, Nottingham
Following their support slot on the Enter Shikari arena tour in November last year, Astroid Boys headed out onto their headline tour with multiple sold-out shows and their penultimate date at Nottingham’s Rescue Rooms certainly didn’t disappoint.
Watain at The Dome, London
I made my way to North London having not been to The Dome before, however, as soon as I left Tufnell Park Station knew I was in the right place, with artwork and band names you couldn’t read nor pronounce on t-shirts as well as proudly displayed inverted crucifixes.
In Flames and Five Finger Death Punch at the SSE Wembley Arena, London
This is one I was looking forward to— three bands who could legitimately headline their own shows and have done previously.
Lovebites at the Underworld, London
What’s better than an all-girl Japanese power metal band? Absolutely nothing, and that’s why Lovebites were not to be missed when they performed at the Underworld in Camden, London this week.
Enslaved at Islington Assembly Hall, London
The temperature had taken a massive drop throughout the day, by night it was cold, so cold and the pale blue lights streaking up the Islington Assembly Hall walls made it somehow feel colder — quite fitting considering the main act are Norwegian. Once inside though, it felt almost tropical in comparison.
Cradle of Filth at the Electric Ballroom, London
As I arrived at the Electric Ballroom, the queue was snaking along Camden High Street but within a short time it was moving along swiftly much to the delight of fans wearing only t-shirts sporting their favourite Cradle of Filth artwork.
