Stigmata Presents The Black Swan UK Tour 2026

PINK TURNS BLUE
Plus Special Guests
THE SNAKE CORPS

German Post-Punk Legends Pink Turns Blue on Tour in Support of New Album “Black Swan” Since forming in 1985, German post-punk stalwarts Pink Turns Blue have refined their sound into something unmistakably their own—elegant in its minimalism, emotive in its delivery, and enduring in its relevance. From their early breakthrough with If Two Worlds Kiss to their newest release, Black Swan, the Berlin-based trio has remained a vital force in the international post-punk community, shaping and reshaping the genre across decades.

IST IST + Desperate Journalist + The Youth Play

The Albert Hall, Manchester 27 Peter St, Manchester

Manchester’s IST IST return with their fifth studio album ‘DAGGER’ - the follow-up to 2024’s ‘Light A Bigger Fire’ which charted at number 25 in the UK, breaking them into the Top 40 for the first time.

Once again collaborating with producer Joseph Cross (Hurts, Lana Del Rey, Courteeners) the record finds the band returning to their electronic-infused post-punk roots after making a leap into more mainstream sensibilities last time out.

Over their decade as a band so far, IST IST have forged a formidable reputation on word of mouth excitement, amassing a dedicated cult following in the […]

Theatre of Hate + TBC

Kanteena, Lancaster Brewery Lane, Lancaster

In 1980, Kirk Brandon formed Theatre Of Hate from the ashes of heralded punk band The Pack. Joining Kirk on vocals were notable punk musicians Stan Stammers and Luke Rendall, along with old school friend, Steve Guthrie and Canadian born John “Boy” Lennard, who revolutionised the band’s sound with his haunting sax lines.

Theatre Of Hate’s debut double-A-side single, “Legion”/”Original Sin”, topped the independent chart in 1980, and “Westworld”, their debut album, produced by Mick Jones from The Clash and released in 1982, held the number one position for 21 weeks.

The Twilight Sad

Boiler Shop, Newcastle upon Tyne 20 South St, Newcastle upon Tyne

"If the world was a better place they would be playing to more people, and I think they can." - Robert Smith, The Cure

From their unassuming origins as a group of school friends drawn together by a shared passion for music to the global touring force they have quietly become, The Twilight Sad's ascent has been forged the old way with grit, graft and five exceptional studio albums. The Kilsyth group - based around the core duo of James Graham and Andy MacFarlane - seemed to emerge fully formed with their blindsiding 2007 debut Fourteen Autumns and Fifteen Winters […]
