Manchester

Twin Tribes + tbc

The Deaf Institute, Manchester 135 Grosvenor Street, Manchester

Twin Tribes was formed in 2017 in Brownsville, Texas, a border town with a unique cultural blend that subtly influences their music. Luis Navarro and Joel Niño Jr. bonded over their shared love of post-punk and darkwave, deciding to create music that paid homage to the brooding, atmospheric sounds of the 1980s while adding their own modern twist. Despite coming from a region not typically associated with the goth or darkwave scene, they carved out a niche and quickly gained recognition within underground circles.

Their DIY approach played a crucial role in their early success. They self-released their debut album, […]

Bury

IST IST + TBC

The Met, Bury The Met Market Street, Bury

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.

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 […]

London

Male Tears + Death Drive + Strange Futures

The Lexington, London 96-98 Pentonville Road N1 9JB, London

Male Tears (US) is a Los Angeles-based three-piece weirdo-pop and dark synth project led by singer-songwriter James Edward. Formed in the aftermath of the pandemic, the band has quickly become a standout name in the modern darkwave and synth-pop underground, known for blending camp aesthetics, sharp emotional flair, and dance-floor melancholy.

The group first gained attention with their 2021 self-titled debut album, now considered a cult favorite for its fusion of glittery synth-pop nostalgia and melodramatic, tongue-in-cheek songwriting. They followed with Trauma Club (2021) and KRYPT (2023), a deeper dive into shadowy club textures and romantic gloom that solidified their […]

Kontravoid + NUXX

MOTH Club, London Old Trades Hall, Valette Street, London

Presented by Club.The.Mammoth. & Night Terrors

Support from NUXX

Kontravoid’s masked mystique has remained for over a decade. Ever since the release of his self-titled LP in 2012, the Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based Cameron Findlay has perfected dark pop with his oeuvre that teeters between the EBM, electro and goth genres. His productions, such as 2019’s “Too Deep” and 2021’s “Faceless,” dive to the most derelict corners of foggy, strobe-lit clubs: there is no choice but to dance. But there is an uncanny softness and obvious songwriting ability to compose heart-wrenching songs that are both captivating and drenched in melancholy—2018’s “Undone” […]
