There's a lot going on in Underdark's sound. Beyond its raw, blackened core, there are elements of the post-metal of bands like Ulver or Enslaved, and the blackgaze of contemporaries like Deafheaven and Alcest. Dig deeper still, and there is much of the wry miserabilism of post-punk and, most strikingly, the energy and open-wound emotion of 2000s screamo. Ollie and fellow guitarist Adam Kinson spent most of their time making indie-pop before they started this band, and flickers of the ingenious melody of that world still bleed through. Indeed, descriptions of Underdark's sound over the years as 'Envy-meets-Emperor' or 'What Joy Division would sound like if they made black metal' aren't far off the mark.

They will be joined by similar bands, Grief Ritual and Sacrificial Slabs on 27th of January 2024 at 7:30pm!! This show is perfect for fans of Enslaved, Deafhaven, Ulver
