Carnal Rot are 5-man deathgrind band hailing from the filthiest pits of Liverpool’s underground metal scene, though the band is only a few years old, they have gone from strength-to-strength, having supported bands such as Foetal Juice, Party Cannon, Blasphemer and most recently King Parrot. Their blend of death metal, Slam and grind turns their music into a cavernous sonic monstrosity that takes no prisoners.”

Neon Oracle summons a sound that sits somewhere between industrial metal ritual, gothic melodrama, and heavy sonic catharsis. From their home in Liverpool, the band blend shape shifting vocals with serrated guitar riffs, seismic bass, heaving drums and brooding electronics into a hypnotic, high-pressure atmosphere – like a nightclub possessed by ancient spirits. Fronted by Sam on vocals and industrial noise production, alongside Ben (bass), Matt (guitar) and Andy (drums), Neon Oracle create live experiences that feel part concert, part invocation. Their presence is theatrical without being pretentious; chaotic, but precise. The band describes their shows as “sermons for people who don’t believe in anything, but feel everything.

Liverpool-based cyber-grind queercore duo Victim Unit blend harsh primal noise and disturbingly fierce riffs will leave you breathless and questioning how this sound can come from two gays and a drum machine. Their ethos is building a space for queer folx, SA survivors and people afflicted with mental health to collectively and safely come together to grieve our traumas and celebrate our identities.

Sevenyearwaitinglist are an experimental cybergrind duo from Liverpool. Known for their high energy live shows, genre-ignorance & harsh noise centred sound.
