SLAUGHTERHOUSE FESTIVAL 2026
The curtain draws on what has been an incredible event showcasing what makes heavy metal one of the most creative, engaging and inspiring musical genres known to man. We want to thank Rory, the stage crew, bar staff and organisers at @castleandfalcon for putting together a spectacle for the people of Birmingham and beyond.
To those who bought a ticket, listened, moshed and drank, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
We’ll see you soon.
Special thanks:

it’s Wednesday my dudes
Ok I’ll stop being cringe now, it’s nearly time for another Midweek Mosh!! 💀
Got a cracking show ahead tonight as I play the best in heavy metal/metalcore/hardcore from the Midlands and beyond!!
On tonight’s show for my Midlands Mosh Guarantee I am joined by Thrash metal outfit @mountslatra as they release their new single 5x5. Set to headline the main stage at Slaughterhouse Festival this year and armed with new bassist Aaron, they feel reinvigorated with new ideas and a chaotic stage show.
Also on the show tonight I play @denied_legacy after they KILLED IT at @m2tm_brum last weekend, @smother.hc after seeing them at @pinknoizepromo ’s all dayer, @seasontwouk ’s new single, and @blackautumnband who are new to the Midweek Mosh and also playing Slaughterhouse! 🔥🔥
Another band I’m delighted to see back are my fave goths in @dyingaddiction_band . I’m playing their latest single Altitude as we get hyped to see them return after a 4 month break @slaughterhousefestival 🙌🏻🖤
And it’s new @bldsugr day!!!! Their track MANIA is out now, and I’ll be playing it tonight!! 🖤🖤
All that to come as well as gateway tracks from @machinegunkelly and Fred Durst and the new one from @muse who me and Keiran have affectionately re-named to Musestile after listening to this track 😂
No metalcore world tour this week but please send him all of the love @thirst4violence 🖤🖤
All of these shenanigans from 9pm only on @switch_radio 🖤
