Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Anthemic 80s goth gets a ghoulish lick of corpse-painted black metal theatrics! Dhampyres are one of the South West’s most promising daywalkers, joined by the twisted Black Parade deviance of Mad By Mourning. Darkness assured FFO: Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, AFI, Ghost, MCR, Creeper."

Dhampyres are a 5 piece from Gloucestershire, UK with a heavy, yet melodic dark Gothic influenced sound that started out as the vision of vocalist/frontman Al Hale in early 2022. Frustrated by the whole scene he decided it was time throw caution to the wind and channel his creativity into the music he loved. Something that little bit darker.
Mad By Mourning are a Spook-Rock band spawned in Plymouth, England who use their obsession with gothic art and storytelling to create worlds for their music. With a cauldron of macabre tunes and a live show filled with infectious energy, Mad By Mourning are ready to bring their twisted stories to life and hold the rock scene at gunpoint.
Neversaid are a trans-fronted band from London. Bursting onto the UK scene in 2021, the band’s style effortlessly combines nostalgic elements of 2000s emo and post-hardcore with the aggressive and abrasive sounds of modern screamo and hardcore.
Get Mendoza is a three piece coming straight out of Andover. The band combines the best of indie rock and emo and takes heavy inspiration from scenes across the American Midwest, layering soft, harmonious bass lines against heavy, melancholic guitar and strong vocals.
Please note the basement is not wheelchair accessible and is accessed by a narrow enclosed staircase. For more accessibility info, please email [email protected]
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
