April 20th – LVLS, LONDON
Skies Turn Black have been at it since 2016 and gained attention with their 2018 release “No Place Like Home”, with Metal Hammer calling it “One of the best guitar albums of the year”. This led them to play their first post-pandemic festival at Bloodstock in 2023 to an overflowing crowd at the Jägermeister Stage.
Since the release of “No Place Like Home”, Skies Turn Black has added a keytar to their line-up, diversifying their sound to explore what genre-bending electronics can add to the heavy metal at the core of the band. The result has taken the heaviness of dance music, such as dubstep, to create an impactful twist to your run-of-the-mill metal.
Since their appearance at Bloodstock 2023, the band has played across the UK, performing at sold-out shows in Sunderland, Nottingham, Huddersfield, and Bristol.
The project has one full album release in No Place Like Home (2018), a self-titled EP (2016), and a number of standalone single releases: ‘The Skies Are Falling Down’, ‘Sweet, Sweet Solitude’ and ‘Playing With Fire’. Their second full album will be released through Sliptrick Records in 2025.
Andromedous have been active since 2018, during which they’ve sought to provide a fresh take on heavy music, blending EDM with metal guitars and vocals. The band began to draw attention following their performance at a sold-out Download festival in 2023, opening up the festival as part of the Boardie takeover on the Doghouse Stage.
They have performed relentlessly across the UK, racking up 60 shows nationwide in the last 24 months, and have seen steady growth. This led to them supporting L1NKN P4RK, performing to sold-out crowds across the north of England, Scotland, and Wales. They have also shared the stage with the likes of Hacktivist, Dropout Kings, Raptors, and Harbinger.
The project has three EPs released: “Phase 0” and “The Fall” in 2019, and “Voids” in 2023. They’ve also released seven singles, ‘Transmit // Tyro’ in 2021, ‘Coalesce // Commune’ in 2022, ‘Chasm in 2023, and ‘Elliots Versions’ in 2024. The band have recently concluded work on their fourth EP.
