Chamber presale codes

Malevolence come from Sheffield's heavy scene, blending groove metal weight with hardcore grit. Guilt Trip bring Manchester metallic hardcore with faster tempos and thrashy edges, making this pairing feel natural. Since Malicious Intent, Malevolence have leaned into big choruses while keeping the stomp, and Guilt Trip's Severance sharpened their attack.

Two UK heavyweights, one stage

Expect a set that leans on On Broken Glass, Life Sentence, and Higher Place, with a late-set Keep Your Distance shout-along if time allows. The floor usually mixes patched denim vets, track-jacket two-steppers, and friends who discovered both through UK festival clips.

Songs that might shake the room

Trivia: Malevolence run the MLVLTD imprint that helped push Severance, and they often roll out an ominous intro tape before the first hit. Another small note: early Malevolence tours were self-booked across Europe, which is why their crowd work feels hands-on. Set choices and production notes here are informed guesses from recent runs and could change at showtime.

The Malevolence crowd: scene notes and shared code

The scene here blends UK hardcore style with metal lifer touches, so you see cargos, workwear jackets, back patches, and fresh skate shoes in the same row. MLVLTD pieces pop up often, and Guilt Trip long-sleeves with barbed wire or razor fonts trade hands fast at the table.

Style meets stomp

When the groove locks, pockets open for two-step, and during the faster cuts people circle, then reset without fuss. Big sing-back moments arrive on Higher Place, where the mic often goes to the crowd and strangers steady each other by the rail.

Shared rules, shared care

Between bands, people compare festival stories, trade earplug tips, and swap local venue news rather than chase clout videos. It feels neighborly more than rowdy, with fans checking on a fallen friend and making space when someone needs out of the pit. After the show, folks linger to chat merch designs and ask about the next MLVLTD drop, treating the night like a small community meet-up.

How Malevolence hits live: riffs first, flash second

Live, Malevolence center thick, syncopated riffs while the drummer locks a steady pulse that makes the room move in unison. Vocals flip between harsh barks and clear sung lines, often handed to a guitarist for the chorus so the shift feels natural. Guilt Trip push the pace with faster picking and tight muting, then drop into slam parts that frame the headliner’s grooves.

Riff weight over flash

Arrangements tend to breathe, with space after a chorus before the next hit so the crowd can respond. A lesser-known habit: on Higher Place, they often stretch the bridge and lean into a halftime crush before the final hook.

Small tweaks that hit harder

Guitars run extra-low tunings for weight, but the leads stay simple and hummable, which keeps the chaos from turning messy. Lights usually favor cold blues and amber backwash that silhouette the band so the riffs, not the LEDs, carry the show.

If you ride with Malevolence, you might like these

Fans of Knocked Loose will align with this bill because both acts snap from quick panic riffs into massive breakdowns with barked vocals.

Kindred noise, shared pits

If you ride with Kublai Khan TX, the mid-tempo stomp and crowd-ready callouts from Malevolence scratch the same itch. While She Sleeps overlaps through UK roots and big melodic hooks, especially when Malevolence dip into cleaner choruses. Thy Art Is Murder fans may connect with the low-tuned heft and double-kick surges that show up in the heaviest moments.

Where grooves meet gravity

The overlap is less about genre labels and more about liking riffs that swing, pits that move, and bands that treat the room like a crew. If those names live in your playlist, this night lands in the pocket.
