2026-05-20 19:30 - 23:00 | Factory, Manchester, 112 -118 Princess Street, Manchester, M1 7EN, United Kingdom
Lone Assembly are a Swiss quartet blending new wave, romantic synthpop and dark, melancholic post-punk. Formed by Raphaël Bressler (vocals, keyboards), Glenn Le Meur (guitar), Jim Bodeman (bass) and Romain Segu (drums), the band broke through in 2024 with their debut EP That Never Happened — a release rooted in themes of grief, emotional distance and vulnerability, pairing ’80s cold-wave textures with sharp modern production.

Their forthcoming debut album Knots & Chains, due February 2026 via Irascible Records, expands on this world with thunderous basslines, hypnotic rhythms, reverb-soaked guitars and atmospheric synths underpinning Bressler’s deep, resonant vocals. Known for their striking gothic-inspired visuals and growing reputation for powerful live shows, Lone Assembly have quickly built a dedicated following across the new-wave and dark-wave scenes, while retaining undeniable pop appeal.

Ro Nova is a London-based electropop artist and producer blending ’80s synth textures with ethereal vocals to create a sound that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking. Since the release of her debut single “do you think it’s fine?”, she has received support from BBC Radio 1, BBC London and Reprezent Radio, alongside tastemakers including Harriet Rose (KISS FM) and James Threlfall (BBC Introducing).

A feature with German electronic heavyweight Schiller helped expand her audience internationally, following the album Illuminate reaching No.1 in Germany. Ro Nova has since toured Europe with Schiller, including performances at Berlin’s Uber Arena, and has collaborated with Grammy Award-winners Fred again.. and Kamille, alongside sessions with RAYE, MNEK and Toddla T. Following standout sets at The Great Escape Festival and London’s Scala, Ro Nova recently headlined SJQ Dalston and will join Lone Assembly on their 2026 UK tour.

BlakLight is Los Angeles based dark synthpop trio Adam Collier (Beautiful Crisis, SilverScene), Brian Belknap (Mind Machine) & Omar Quiñones (Vain Machine). Formed by Adam and Brian in early 2020, the band released the singles “Isolation” and “Unknown Love” before quickly unleashing their critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Music in a Time of Uncertainty’.

After an additional single, “Control”, an onslaught of remix EPs, compilation tracks and numerous remixes for other artists, BlakLight set their sights on a second album. “Nightmares” and “Reset” built anticipation for the follow-up, ‘Into the Void’, released in late 2021. ‘Into The Void’ crafts songs of both light and darkness, while expanding the band’s electronic musical template. Finding the album on top of many year-end lists, they closed out 2021 with another single, “Crack”, backed with their take on the Echo & The Bunnymen classic, “The Killing Moon”.

2022 saw the band release the title track from ‘Into the Void’ and make their live debut playing shows alongside Aesthetic Perfection, Matte Blvck, and others. They soon assembled the sprawling twenty track, remix double album, ‘Out of The Void – The Remixes’, featuring two unique twists of every song from ‘Into the Void’, constructed by the likes of Aesthetic Perfection, Assemblage 23, Beborn Beton, Black Light Odyssey, Eisfabrik, Kontraviod, Solar Fake and many more. BlakLight closed out the year with the release of ‘Innocence Lost’ EP, while 2023 began with the re-release of two previously released exclusive compilation tracks, “Coma” and “Wicked Face” and their instrumental-ish album, ‘The Padded Room’.

BlakLight believe that music can make a difference and has contributed multiple exclusive tracks to compilations curated by Los Angeles based music collective Darkness Calling, https://darknesscalling.bandca…, with all proceeds donated to the Transgender Law Center.

The duo has now expanded to a trio, adding the talented and versatile Omar Quiñones from Vain Machine on synths and backing vocals, and have shared stages with Traitrs, Glass Spells, Urban Heat, Male Tears, The New Division, Empathy Test, Solar Fake, Beborn Beton, Anything Box, Assemblage 23, Leæther Strip, Die Sexual, Sleek Teeth, State of The Union, NITE, I Speak Machine and more, with slots at Absolution Fest, Out from The Shadows Festival, Mechanismus Festival and Terminal Fest. The trio released several standalone singles in 2024, ‘BlakChristmas’, their spin on the Church’s “Reptile”, “A Stranger Calls” / “Blinded by The Sun” plus “Blind Vision”, the first taste of BlakLight’s fourth album, ‘The Haunting of Us’. The follow up singles, “Buried Alive” and “Leave a Light On”, hit the airwaves prior to the December release of ‘The Haunting of Us’.

The band kicked off the new year with the addition of a new live member, Suede Flores from Carved Souls, before they embark to play Dark Force Fest, a Mexican tour and Wave-Gotik Treffen, marking the band’s European debut.

In The Black Midsommar: Byronic Sex & Exile + Cadence Noir + Dierotica + The Glass House Museum + Passion Play + Jan Doyle Band + John Merrick's Remains + Syd.31 + Tommy Biscuits + Jackhno + Dierotica + Sister Chain & Brother John
2026-06-20 19:00 - 2026-06-21 23:00 | Unitarian Church, Doncaster, Hall Gate, Doncaster, DN1 3PB
We’re trying a summer festival! In Doncaster at a fabulous venue which has roots going back to 1740!

The Doncaster Unitarians are a wonderfully open minded religious organisation operating under the banner of Christianity but absolutely pro LGBTQ+ and basically everything good. And basically pretty much open to everyone..

In this event (full details of acts to be fully confirmed) we have (in alphabetical order)

Byronic Sex & Exile – The ultimate in romantic era goth fabulous. A staple at many of our events over the years and head honcho of Goth City. Has played many festivals such as Deadinburgh, Infest and Tomorrows Ghosts..

Dierotica who were going to be playing the Sheffield festival last year but sadly couldn’t make it in the end. A supremely fine example of a classic goth sound mixed with a touch of shoegaze. They have always hugely impressed us and now have added a drummer to make things even more fabulous..

Jan Doyle Band – The band ubiquitous to Night Shift events as they are the band behind the promotion and indeed writing this right now. And this event is also the 50th birthday party of Derek who is the head honcho of that project..

Jackhno – Doncaster’s super techno punk. Bliteringly danceable tunes with a frequently political side. You can bet this is all very very anti Tory/Reform et al. Jackhno often known for hosting music events at Doncaster Skate park, being involved in other festivals of the past (such as Mother Fhungus) and various Emoms and some amazing DJ sets.

John Merrick’s Remains – Doncaster’s fabulous electro goths who also have been a significant staple of Night Shift events over the years.. Now with a new line up from the original that you would have seen at our festival two years ago in Sheffield…

Passion Play – Doncaster’s post punk stalwarts run by Tony Nicholson who now fronts John Merrick’s Remains too. Tony also played the first Night Shift event in 2016 in Doncaster..

Syd.31 – The monsters of Industrial Punk (with actually some Doncaster roots after a fashion) and who played the second Night Shift event way back in 2016 at the Leopard here in Doncaster.. A powerful explosion on stage and powerful no holds barred sound…

Tommy Biscuits – AKA Lawrence Mahmood of the Papashangos. Hugely involved and renowned in the punk scene and known for being quite the anarchic performer – mixing on stage wildness with a certain sense of the ridiculous and absurd. The name may reference a certain other Tommy that has been a problem but sounds more like some fruit juice drink.. A totally unique experience.

Poisonous Little Creatures
2026-06-20 19:30 - 23:00 | The Hallamshire Hotel, Sheffield, 182 West Street, Sheffield, S1 4ET,

It will be the band’s first gig for over three decades when they return at The Hallamshire Hotel, West Street, on Saturday 20th June, 2026.: the only venue they played back in the day that hasn’t been either demo’ed or closed down!

The band’s back catalogue has now been remastering and given a digital release via Phantom Power Records including their debut single “Head” b/w “Change Your Mind” and their debut and sole album, “Absolutely Nothing”.

Special guests on the night will be confirmed shortly.

Ghost Dance was originally formed in 1985 by Anne Marie Hurst (formerly of Skeletal Family) and Gary Marx (from The Sisters of Mercy). The band quickly built a strong following, spending several weeks high in the indie charts with a string of singles and an album on the Karbon label. During this time, they toured extensively with acts such as The Cult, The Mission, All About Eve, The Wonder Stuff, and Killing Joke, and appeared at the Reading Rock Festival in 1988.

After signing with Chrysalis Records, Ghost Dance released their major-label album Stop the World and recorded radio sessions for the likes of John Peel, Janice Long, and Nicky Campbell. They also developed a huge European following, with TV appearances in Spain, Germany, the UK, and Canada. The band eventually disbanded in 1989 after completing a tour in Germany with The Ramones.

2021-2024

In 2021, Ghost Dance unveiled a new line-up featuring Anne Marie Hurst, quickly gaining momentum with YouTube videos surpassing 100,000 views and a series of well-received singles and live shows. Highlights included performing as special guests of Fields of the Nephilim at the sold-out Tomorrow’s Ghosts Festival in Whitby (2022), alongside appearances in Belgium, Sweden, and Mexico.

The following year, the band released their long-awaited album The Silent Shout (2023), which received rave reviews. The record debuted at No.1 on the iTunes Goth Rock chart, while the CD continues to rank highly and remains an Amazon best-seller within the genre.

2025 Relaunch

The increased touring and recording workload impacted the availability of some of the band members. So in 2025 after a number of guest musicians passed through the ranks, Anne Marie rebuilt the band with a solidified lineup, renewed vigour and plans for a string of UK and international shows.

Reliquia + Hurtsfall + Mrs Frighthouse
2026-09-11 19:00 - 23:00 | Aatma, Manchester, 1st Floor, 14-16 Faraday St, Manchester, M1 1BE
A profoundly eclectic concert bill celebrating different and diverse sounds from the UK’s dark alternative underground. From gothic rock, to post-punk doom to industrial noise.

“Reliquia is a UK-based five-piece crafting emotionally charged, atmospheric music that merges post-punk urgency, post-rock scale, and the weight of heavy alternative music into a sound that prioritizes dark atmospheres, anthemic songwriting and heavy, crushing emotion.Formed by vocalist Gregg Neville (Spire Circle, Golden Gardens) and guitarist Tobias Gray (The Machinist), the lineup is completed by George Kal (guitars), Andy Lindley (bass), and Karim Nashar (drums).Since emerging onto the UK live circuit in 2023, the band has shared stages with artists across the darker and more experimental ends of the alternative spectrum, including Darkest Era, Hexvessel, Godthrymm, Scandelion, Night Hexe, and industrial pioneers Attrition. Their sets have quickly gained a reputation for being aggressive, intense, theatrical and emotional.”

“Mrs Frighthouse is Carys and Luna Frighthouse, a wife and wife industrial noise metal duo from Glasgow. Their unique blend of harsh sonic dissonance and chaos combined with beautiful heart-wrenching vocals has seen them play headline shows and festivals across the UK.

They confront issues of misogyny, homophobia and transphobia in performances that feel in equal parts disturbing and cathartic.”

“Hurtsfall have a unique approach: with no guitars, keyboards and Bass VI build a rich soundscape as a foundation for Sam Harrison Emm’s distinctive theatrical delivery. Hurtsfall blend gothic rock, post-punk, and synth/pop, recalling the essence of your favourites with a fresh genre-spanning twist. Based in Nottingham, the ancestral home of Lord Byron, they share his penchant for romantic verses.”

She Past Away + Actors
2026-09-25 19:00 - 23:00 | Gorilla, Manchester, Whitworth Street West, Manchester, M15WW
Night Terrors will be hosting a double-bill of She Past Away + ACTORS at Dalston’s EartH Hall this September.

SHE PAST AWAY is a dark wave/post-punk duo, consisting of Volkan Caner (vocal, guitars and songwriting) and Doruk Ozturkcan (drums, synths and production). Experimenting old/new aesthetic of synth music into their core guitar stuff, She Past Away forged a sound, an attitude, and a sensibility, conveyed through a minimalist poetry sung in Turkish, which sweeps the audience through a dense, continual epic trip in both their recordings and live performances.

ACTORS is a Canadian post-punk/darkwave band from Vancouver, formed in 2012 by Jason Corbett (vocals, guitar), known for their cinematic, synth-driven sound that blends classic 80s new wave with modern flair, alongside Shannon Hemmett (keyboards, vocals), Kendall Wooding (bass, vocals), and Adam Fink (drums). They gained prominence with albums like It Will Come To You (2018) and Acts of Worship (2021), blending moody atmospheres, driving rhythms, and anthemic hooks, establishing themselves as key figures in the contemporary darkwave scene.

Cabaret Voltaire + Gazelle Twin
2026-10-11 19:00 - 23:00 | Arts Club Theatre, Liverpool, 90 Steel Street, Liverpool, Liverpool, L1 4BH
Stephen ‘Mal’ Mallinder and Chris Watson have announced details of their Final UK Tour, starting on 10 October 2026 at Birmingham Town Hall and finishing at the Sheffield Octagon on 25 October, with Gazelle Twin confirmed as special guest across all the dates.

These dates follow news of this year’s highly anticipated sold-out tour, which marks 50 years since the live launch of one of Britain’s most influential electronic bands, Cabaret Voltaire, at the Sheffield Students Union Refectory on 13 May 1975.

Talking about the newly announced dates, Stephen Mallinder, says: “What a wonderful opportunity to go round the block one more time and share that with one of the most unique and spectacular artists we know. The connective tissue between ourselves, our history, and the world Gazelle Twin now conjures up, will be out there and shared with people. It seems like a special, magical moment. ”Composer, producer, and performance artist Elizabeth Bernholz, aka Gazelle Twin, will be special guest across the tour: “Pinch me. Go on. I’m feeling excessively lucky at the prospect of touring with Cabaret Voltaire in 2026. They are electronic music pioneers, but also the loveliest, kindest folk in music that I could ever hope to share the stage with.

In the current climate of social turmoil and political manipulation, the prescient work of Cabaret Voltaire continues to be necessary. The sounds, words, images and films of the band still resonate loudly, continuing to challenge the status quo. The events in 2025 and 2026 will curate this essential work and to acknowledge the timeless energy and to mark the continuing significance and power of what Cabaret Voltaire achieved. Original members Chris Watson and Stephen Mallinder are committed to stay true to the enduring vision of Cabaret Voltaire. The performance will cover the arc of their formidable output – from early experiments, and the first Rough Trade / Factory releases, through the band’s Doublevision video label and into the work with renowned producers such as Adrian Sherwood and Marshall Jefferson. Stephen Mallinder explains, “The live set is built from scratch but faithful to the original tracks. Everything has been painstakingly reconstructed with the original technology and processes to build the tracks. But as with all Cabs live shows there is an element of unpredictable, the new. Chance meets causality.”

With support from Jan Doyle Band who, while known for somewhat wild explosive Goth performances, have promised to explore the more subtle elements of their work whilst still maintaining the typically glamorous presentation

PLUS, and this is quite a scoop we feel. we finally present the DEBUT live show of sheffield goth duo The Greystone Sisters who achived much notability with the likes of Mick Mercer with their only released works The Veil and Paranoia, remarking on how the former offered a “queasy romance” (lyrically) and also “largely lives on vocals and bass alone”.Paranoia he said has sharp delivery an impressive sour charm.

Brides of The Black Room + Promenade Cinema
2026-11-07 19:00 - 22:30 | Corporation, Sheffield, Milton Street, Sheffield, S1 4JU
The Brides of the Black Room

A secret society, existing as nothing more than a whisper through history, The Brides of the Black room began it´s unmasking in late 2020.

Once hunted as witches, and now reclaiming the title as their birthright, the coven seeks to bring balance to the shadows they’ve had to call their home. Serving the omnipotent entity they know as

“Mother”, the Brides took up arms against any that would see them brought back down into obscurity.

In season 1/album 1 “Blood and Fire” (2022), the Brides was fronted by a trinity of unexpected spearhead siblings with ancient rites and ever shifting technology as their weapons.

In season two Alazam wakes up after the blast of whatever was going on to find herself in a somewhat Nangijala state. And so the struggle continues. Who´s in command? Over what? What is the struggle?

Who is the enemy?

Season 2/Album 2 called “Commander” (2025) presented the cult taking new steps further into the story revealing the characters behind the curtains that were there since the beginning of the story; Coyote, Lynx & Ghostheart.

The Brides of the Black Room is now heading on their first tour after only exclusive concerts in their home city of Stockholm.

Promenade Cinema

Covenant Legacy UK Tour + TBC
2026-12-04 19:00 - 23:00 | Corporation, Sheffield, Milton Street, Sheffield, S1 4JU
COVENANT 1986-2026We live in confusing times, in the dusk of mankind. We want to tell stories and sing about how that makes us feel. In a world that has stopped making sense, we need to learn how to see in the dark. Covenant is a triumphant embrace of the strength and resilience of the soul. It’s the dystopian, unforgiving song of our dreams born in the shadow of the cold war. Our music is a monument of our failures and as beautiful as a collapsed star.

26t of April 1986, on the very eve of the Chernobyl disaster, Covenant was founded after having their senses blinded by Front 242 in Malmö at the legendary venue Stadt Hamburg.

The aggressive beats and uncompromising attitude mixed with the pop flavour of their new song Don’t Crash made a deep impression and only 5 months later Clas, Eskil and Joakim had their first show, with own songs, and the band have since performed in 42 countries over 6 continents and released over 120 songs. In 2026 the band would like to invite you and together reflect on the times and celebrate 40 years of “pop with an edge”! In a string of extended concerts, spanning two and a half hours, the band will perform songs from every album with setlists voted by the fans and you. We are honoured and grateful for every moment we shared, thank you for the music.

Founding members Joakim Montelius and Eskil Simonsson are currently working on a new album. Like a probing Nautilus, changing with change, moving within motion and steering straight through black waters, we will never rest, we will never abandon.

Welcome to the void.
