The beyond-cvlt transcendental blackgaze bastion’s constantly evolving trip comes to an IRL head in a baptismal roar of chorused guitar squall, guttural vocal catharsis and post-rock knife-edge tension. Sunbather changed metal forever. Period. We just live in the afterglow. A monumental happening FFO: Liturgy, MBV, Alcest, Holy Fawn, Deftones, Mogwai.

Sell out warning! Still reeling from Aba Shanti-i? Hell, we’re still reeling from Jah Tubby’s 50th birthday. Now one of the heaviest to ever do it returns, not far from their sacred Carnival spot on Argyle Road, bringing their militant ‘Hooligan Sound’ to face Bristol’s foundational Jah Lokko. Full crews inside, with 70s pedigrees apiece, emanating pure knowledge and energy from all available plates and subs. Dubheads: it doesn’t get any better than this.
