This coming Saturday see’s a heavy af line up hit Blondies Taproom in East London. Hosted by Feral Collective who have planned their first show over the past few months are finally set to hit the stage and all nerves removed for an enjoyable day.
Headlined by Black Country groovers Stitched, Feral Collective set out their first show with a goal of gathering artists from across the UK, from Aberdeen to Plymouth. So, there’s a little summin’ summin’ there for all to enjoy (including the beer).
So without blabbering too much here’s Saturdays line up for you to check out:
From Hertfordshire, New Town open the show this Saturday and this will be there first ever live show. After months of anticipation they’re raring to get you two stepping. We haven’t heard much from them apart from the single ‘Boots On The Ground’ that was released a few months back. However I can tell you, the EP is there awaiting release!
I’m extremely looking forward to getting on that stage fronting to a crowd for the first time! and to see you all moving to something so passionate to me and the rest of the guys.
Blythe have recently been added on to the list with the unfortunate news that Living Spite cannot join us this weekend.
Blythe are travelling down from Manchester for this show and they’ll be bringing their grunge, shoegazey style for all to hear (Grungegaze). Giving you that more melodic style to mosh to.
With their most recent single released at the beginning on August in ‘Homestead’ I’m looking forward to seeing them! The style they play reminds me of the likes of Momma & Soccer Mommy but make up your own mind and just give them a whirl!
Datura make their way from Aberdeen to London to play this show and they’re here to show what Scottish Hardcore has to offer. Since they released their two singles last year in ‘Skinwalker‘ & ‘Violent Breed‘ they’ve got nothing short of drive and determination to make a name for themselves.
Their sound comes in the form of what I can call modern hardcore.
Based out of the city of Norwich, 2nd Location are on top of where the growth in the EAHC scene is. 2nd Location released their debut EP just over a year ago and it’s a piece of art. Taking inspiration from the likes of Backtrack, Locked Shut, Drain & Speed you can feel the attitude within the riffs and the vocals.

Another band travelling the distance all the way from Plymouth our good pals Mentality. These lads have been smashing it in their local scene since their inception and you know their set is going to be a belter!
They released their debut EP Breakthrough at the end of July and if you haven’t listened to it yet you’re missing out because from start to finish it’s just epic riffs.
Black Mould hail out of the Midlands and released their debut EP ‘Genesis Tracks‘ back in September 2025. Coming off the back of supporting US Hardcore Band Locked Shut last week at The Flapper, Birmingham they’re about to bring their heavy style of metallic hardcore featuring more and more beatdown and metalcore influences as they head down this weekend!
It’s been a while since they last hit up London so will there be some new tracks we iwll get to listen to?
Coming in on short notice to help bring something exciting to the show is Dormant who have been quite quiet this year so you know they’re raring to give you something to mosh to.
Dormant merge different genres together for their nu-metal esc style of music, crossing EDM along the way. They showed a little bit of what they’re about a couple of weeks ago supporting Burnt Chapter in Signature Brew so will they rile you up again?
I haven’t got to see these guys for a while but next up and main support for the show is none other than Dispute.
Dispute have been active in the UK Hardcore scene for many years. They’re latest EP Stomped Out Of Existence which was released back in October 2025 hits you with a proper thud (you can definitely imagine getting some blows to the head for this one).
Stitched bring their dark and groovy style out of the Black Country and into the Capital after having a solid start to 2026. With the release of their album Terminal back in Novemeber 2025 they’ve been hitting up shows across the UK and even a birthday party & wedding.
They recently played Bloodstock this summer and I bet that must’ve been insane.
They are definitely someone to keep your eye on.
As always make sure you get down at doors to support all the bands playing the show on Saturday and above all else enjoy yourself!
Tickets are still available via Dice for £12 advance and hopefully there will be some on the door so come on down!
Until next time, I’ll catch you in the pit!
