A night of metal at The Flapper headlined by The Grey

Let's kick off 2026 in style with a stacked lineup of metal bands!

I've seen Voidlurker before and they were absolutely brilliant but every band on this bill should be brilliant. They're a real mix of metal styles. Check out headliners The Grey here:

Doors are at 7 pm. We'll meet upstairs, grab a drink, then head down together. If you can't arrive at the start that's absolutely fine - just let us know. We'll make sure newcomers can find us by being clear about who to look for and where we are in the venue. We'll be getting there early because Eyeglass featuring this group's very own James are opening the show.

More details on the show from the promoters:
The evening will be headed up by Cambridge post-metal masters THE GREY who performed an incredibly heavy yet powerfully emotive set at this year’s Arctangent Festival, and have already been announced for next year’s ATG as well as DesertFest London! Their sublimely cathartic third album KODOK was released earlier in 2025 to critical acclaim.

Joining them are Birmingham’s own sludge ridden doom merchants VOIDLURKER, who just released their stunning second record Loathe for Life in September, the aggressively crushing hardcore of HOLLOW BLESSINGS bringing their low tuned noise all the way from Cardiff.
