NEW SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT
GRAVEKVLT (France)
Aubzagl
Necronomicunt
Louse 30th August 2026 Outpost, Liverpool
Dirty but catchy, France's Gravekvlt's sound is an impious brew of black metal, d-beat punk, old school death metal and a heavy dose of rock’n’roll. These four guys from Nantes just mix everything they love, creating an alternate reality where the 80’s extreme metal forefathers would have cited coldwave and hard rock as influences. Get ready for a hellish ride in an ancient ghost train that reeks of old tombs & dried blood.
FFO : Venom, Devil Master, Motörhead, Midnight
Supports come from Yorkshire based antifascist black metal outfit Aubzagl, d-beat doom merchants Necronomicunt and apocalyptic d-beat hardcore maniacs Louse from London.
£12 adv / £14 OTD
Limited £10 low/unwaged tickets available as usual. NOTAFLOF (no one turned away for lack of funds)

NEW SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT
FOSSILIZATION (São Paulo, Brazil)
PHOBOCOSM (Montreal, Quebec, Canada)
TRENCH FOOT (Liverpool)
24 August 2026 @ Archive, Liverpool
Two of the most promising international death metal acts in recent years will traverse the pond to bring devastation to Europe this August.
Fossilization, formed from the ashes of Brazilian heavyweights Jupiterian, are coming to Liverpool following the January release of their latest and most devastating record yet — Advent of Wounds. They have previously graced the stages of Maryland Deathfest and Kill-Town Death Fest, mesmerising audiences with a gargantuan cacophony of catastrophic death metal and abrasively atmospheric doom. Fossilization are set to wreak havoc in Liverpool this August as part of their ‘Gateway of Wounds’ European Tour.
Quebec’s Phobocosm follow the release of Gateway with a dissonant and suffocating live experience, summoning waves of aural terror in the form of horrifically cavernous death doom. To miss the rare chance to see both of these international bands in Liverpool would undoubtedly be a grave error — a decision you will regret!
Local support comes from Liverpool’s own Trench Foot, delivering some proper, no-nonsense old school death metal.
£19 ADV / £23 OTD
Limited £15 low/unwaged tickets available as usual.

NEW SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT
Total Meff x Static Dissent are bringing Cryptic Shift to Archive Liverpool, on 1st June as part of their album release tour.
I first saw them probably around 2018 - not long after their first full length Return to Realms - and knew instantly, that they would go a long way. They recently toured in Japan, and are embarking on a tour with Death to All in Europe very soon. Their latest record Overspace & Supertime is a testiment to their hard work, and an amazing showcase of intent behind every single riff. If you haven't heard it yet, go check it out.
Supporting them on this tour are Unburier, bringing their crushing death metal to the launch pad. UNBURIER have shared stages with Sanguisugabogg, Crypta, and Psycroptic, and performed at Bloodstock Open Air and Incineration Festival. Their third EP, As Time Awaits, continues this progression, combining old and new-school death metal with a more focused and direct approach to songwriting.
Manchester's Acid Vat will open this bill and contribute their own dose of death metal.
Tickets - £13 adv / £16 otd / £10 low-unwaged
