“Criminally overlooked so far” – TheBloggingGoth
“A stately rhythm sparkles with a mass of synths and Emma’s vocals soar over it all, and it all sounds so effortless, as if they could knock out a song this brilliant anytime they liked.” […]

Carpe Noctum: Westenra + Black Rain + Entertainment
Whitby's WESTENRA are undoubtedly one of the fastest-rising stars of the UK scene, and we're delighted to welcome them back to Carpe to officially launch their new album!
https://www.facebook.com/westenrabandofficial
BLACK RAIN impressed us so much when they opened for Twisted Nerve last year that we just had to get them back as special guests. These post-punks are another band who are most definitely going places!

Opening proceedings, all the way from Athens, GA, are the fabulous and recently-reformed ENTERTAINMENT. Classic deathrockers in the Rozz-period Christian Death tradition, this is a band guaranteed to kick things off with style.

SONGS FROM THE BLOOD - NEW ALBUM & TOUR
May I present to you the initial details of the sixth Byronic Sex & Exile album and accompanying UK tour.

The ‘Songs From The Blood’ tour will be an immersive exercise in gothic atmosphere, providing thrills and chills in equal measure. Part One of the tour takes place over the remainder of 2025, with […]

Stripped: Tangerinecat + Machiner
Join us for a most unique night as tAngerinecAt touch down on the Dark Side of the Tyne…
Dark anti-lullabies fusing folk, darkwave and deep, haunting, hypnotic soundscapes.
Originating in Ukraine and residing in North Wales, tAngerinecAt embodies a rich tapestry of musical influences that intertwine West and East. The duo conveys a strong anti-war, anti-fascist, and anti-ecocide message, where the hauntingly intimate allure of dark jazz a cappella coexist with the fierce energy of hammering industrial electronic beats and poignant spoken word. It reflects the profound mastery of Ukrainian-born Zhenia Purpurovsky, a classically trained multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, arranger, conductor, and actor, […]
