Reliquia + Hurtsfall + Mrs Frighthouse

Aatma, Manchester 1st Floor, 14-16 Faraday St, Manchester

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.

Gorilla, Manchester Whitworth Street West, Manchester

Night Terrors will be hosting a double-bill of She Past Away + ACTORS at Dalston's EartH Hall this September.

ACTORS is a Canadian post-punk/darkwave band from Vancouver, formed in 2012 […]
