Monochrome returns to once again celebrate ugliness and excess. Set in the heart of Bristol, you'll find a diverse lineup of weirdo metal, gnarled punk and ear splitting noise, in a welcoming and inclusive environment.
We're shaking up the format for 2026 and moving to the legendary Exchange. We'll be taking over both floors and getting ugly until 2am.

MAIN EVENT - SAT 07/03/26
######################
GRAVE MIASMA - Death Metal https://gravemiasma.bandcamp.com/
Grave Miasma represents the sonic exploration of the transcendental essence and nature of death. Pounding, abyssic Death Metal awaits
LADY GAZA (CZH) - Fastcore https://ladyxgaza.bandcamp.com/
A two-piece outfit from Prague, wreaking havoc on eardrums since 2021. Their songs are short, fast, and loud—driven by political bite and laced with a streak of nihilistic humour.
TJUVKOPPLA (SWE) - Powerviolence https://tjuvkopplapv.bandcamp.com
A band built on lightning-fast (and sometimes not-so-fast) riffs, lyrics that veer between dumb and brilliant, and a generous helping of blast beats.
DUIVELSGROT (NLD) - Blackened Synth https://duivelsgrot.bandcamp.com/
Raw black metal forcing itself unto electronic noise and industrial convulsions. A feverish nightmare where clowns transform into demonic unicorns. From the mind of GNAW THEIR TONGUES' Maurice de Jong.
JAUNDICE (SCT) - Death Metal
https://jaundicedeath.bandcamp.com
Putrid death metal from the gutters of Glasgow. Brutal, pummelling, dysfunctional noise to yellow your mucous membranes and damage your liver.
AGTIC NLP - Sci-fi Dislocation
Leeds/Paris lesbian autist sci-fi dislocation duo Two Form a Click join forces with Calder Valley enby no-wave am-dram duo Phantasy. Wielding disarrayed voice and electronics, alien guitars and stumbling synthetic percussion to inflict a gay sorcery of malediction and radical flounce.
LUCIFER SKY - Trauma Electronics https://lucifersky.bandcamp.com/album/princess-pit
Solo project of Indira Lakshmi. Uncompromisingly erratic, viscerally personal experimentations in noise. Shrieks from The Ghost Town.
SOFT ISSUES - Power Electronics https://softissues.bandcamp.com/album/high-capacity-magazine
Power electronics, techno, speedcore, and rhythmic noise fused into a minimal yet corrosive sound. Their releases on Opal Tapes and Natural Sciences showcase this stripped-down, damaged approach at full intensity.
SKINTERN - Scum Rock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hVS7KXovBk
Repetitive, miserable, bloody, perverse project build on blood, spectacle, and excess. FFO Brainbombs and Drunk in Hell
SOPHROSYNE - Cyborg Industrial https://sophrosyne1.bandcamp.com/album/scorpionic-ep
Sophrosyne is a cyborg industrial metal band born on the muddy banks of the Avon. An echo from a post-apocalyptic future where nothing remains but synthesizers, drum machines, and the undying spirit of heavy metal.
ATOMÇK - Grindcore https://atomck.bandcamp.com/album/towering-failures
Grindcore veterans and pillars of the Bristol scene, Atomçk's sound rests on snares struck with relentless force, guitars cranked beyond reason, and vocal cords pushed well past their limits.
PISS DRINKER - Noisecore https://pissdrinkernoise.bandcamp.com/
Piss laden and hectic noisecore, ft members of Distraxi, Ecotage, Uncertainty, Beheading, Acts Of Worship and Plague Pit
NERVE PEEL - Blackened Hardstyle https://nervepeel.bandcamp.com/
Blending extreme metal textures with underground electronic music genres to create their own unique blackened-hardstyle take on Digital Hardcore

In addition to Duivelsgrot, Maurice de Jong will be resurrecting a long-dead project; performing a one-off set of Aderlating material. Distorted electronics, improvised ritual percussion, unsettling field recordings, and corrosive noise
FLESHLICKER (AV Set) - Harsh Noise Wall https://fleshlicker.bandcamp.com/music
We're pleased to be hosting the world premier of ‘Skin Hunger’ - a new film taking the visceral live performance art of Fleshlicker and reimagining it for the screen, accompanied by live soundtrack.
DEAN LLOYD ROBINSON (AV Set) - Power Electronics https://outsiderart.bandcamp.com/
Best known as the man behind noise outfit Knifedoutofexistence and the Outside Art record label, Dean will be presenting his new film "Piles Of Ash Are Left In Different Places” accompanied by a live score. An exploration of grief, it is based on Dean's zine of the same name.
