Catch Heriot, Slabdragger and loads more at Doomlines Festival

Doomlines, the annual day of heaviness held in Sheffield, returns next month for its eighth edition.

This year taking place at Sheffield Corporation on July 23 (the same day as the city's Tramlines festival), the DIY event will see French psych-heads SLIFT headlining, as well as rising Brit heavyists Heriot, and London sludge fiends Slabdragger.

Across the venue's two stages, the day will also host UK shows from Norwegian doomsters Bismarck and Icelandic stoners Volcanova. On top of that, there's a host of homegrown talent: The Infernal Sea, Thank, Longheads, Crepitation, Atvm , Ba'al, Lowen, Gozer, Bodach, Chapel Floods and Le Menhir.

For folks thinking that's not quite enough, on Friday 21 there's a warm-up night headlined by furious Australian hardcore outfit Diploid, and also featuring Dead In Latvia, Casing and Void Maw.

Tickets are an absolute steal at £25. More info is up on the venue's website.
