1986 // Xenith // Burtcher The Butcher // Burn The Churches

Manchester's heaviest export right now. 1986 crush death metal riffs into hardcore fury and slow everything down with suffocating sludge — the result is something genuinely hard to look away from. Their debut album Carniveil has turned heads across the underground, and live, they hit harder still.

Fresh, ferocious, and already turning heads. Xenith hit the ground running in 2023, fusing melodic death metal hooks with thrash aggression into something sharp and impossible to ignore. Don't sleep on them — get in early.
