Headlining this night of skull-crushing Extreme Metal is Deathfiend from Birmingham that features veterans of the underground Metal and Hardcore Punk scenes who have played in legendary bands such as Doom, Sore Throat, Concrete Sox, and Imindain. Their sound is based in ancient Death Doom influenced by Celtic Frost, Hellhammer, Bolt Thrower, and Slaughter, but with spacey, psychedelic guitar work interwoven throughout the music to infuse it with dark atmospheres. Their second album Dark Rising was released in September 2024, and can be checked out via the link below.
The cannibal clan of Absolution should be no strangers to Worcester’s metal maniacs, having regularly played sold-out shows in the city over the past few years. Playing fierce, old-school Death Metal in the vein of Massacre, Master, and Benediction, these Brummie bruisers can promise you a vicious set as they tear you apart, limb from bloody limb.
Opening up proceedings is Voidlurker, a Birmingham based trio of Doom merchants. With riffs as suffocatingly heavy and intoxicating as the fumes of an opium den, these lads play in the style of Electric Wizard, Eyehategod, and Black Sabbath. Voidlurker have a new EP titled Loathe for Life that will be released on 26th September. Check out the song Green Ghost via the link below and make sure to come along to Spin The Black Circle, where I am sure they will be playing more of the EP.
