Mötley Crüde - the Dirt Tour 2026 - the Music Room - Ipswich
THE DIRT TOUR 2026 The world's most authentic Mötley Crüe tribute show goes international and they're the Crüe you deserve. Brace yourself: the decadence of the Sunset Strip is headed your way with a soundtrack to boot thanks to four hellraisers named Nikki, Vince, Mick & Tommy. After 10 years together on the road and during Mötley Crüde's anniversary tour Decade of Decadence in 2025, the band's popularity soared to new heights, drawing over 3.5 million visitors across social media and amassing a devoted international following. Now, in 2026, Mötley Crüde is set to embark on their most ambitious journey yet "The Dirt Tour" a high-octane celebration of Mötley Crüe's legendary 80s era which takes their show across the entire UK, into parts of Europe, for the first time ever into the USA and even down under to Australia. The Dirt Tour promises to be a spectacle of lüde, crüde & rüde anarchy, and what fans are calling a stadium show in the clubs and the most faithful Mötley Crüe experience on Earth. Theyre not a tribute they are Mötley Crüe in their prime. - Kerrang. Voted The World's Most Authentic Mötley Crüe Tribute by the official Mötley Crüe Global Fanclub, these lifelong Crüeheads have been tearing through the tribute scene with an explosive and unrivaled live show, explicit attention to detail, note-for-note accuracy, vintage era gear/costumes and a sound that captures the raw energy of the Crüe's wildest years (Shout at the Devil, Theatre of Pain, Girls, Girls, Girls, and Dr. Feelgood). Mötley Crüde has raised the bar worldwide not only for tribute shows but original acts too. In 2023, the band became the first tribute act in history to sell out the iconic London based venue 'The Underworld' in Camden on presales alone, equalling that of the real Mötley Crüe who sold out the same venue just 6 months prior in a secret show under the name Dögs Öf War. Fans should prepare for a 2-hour, no-holds-barred assault of Crüe hits, fan favourites and those long desired deep cuts, delivered with the same fire that lit up the Whisky A Go Go in 81. Mötley Crüde isnt just a tribute theyre a resurrection of rock's most notorious decade. Whether you're a longtime Crüehead or discovering the madness for the first time, this is the closest youll get to the real thing, delivered by the realest Mötley Crüe experience on the planet.

Question everything. Consider your sources. Be wary of ulterior motives, insidious media narratives and even your own unconscious bias. Trust sparingly and try to make smart, informed choices. As the world slides further into ruin at the behest of old, rich white men ruling with catastrophic, zero-sum thinking, it’s more important than ever to be vigilant and fight back against the forces that be who seem hell-bent on creating a dystopian future for us all. Luckily, Hacktivist are back to help cut through the noise and bullshit, tooled-up and ready to attack with renewed vigour and reinforced ranks. With Jot Maxi and J. Hurley now sharing the vocal and lyrical load, drummer Rich Hawking and bassist Josh Gurner bringing the beats and rhythms, and guitarist and production don James Hewitt fleshing out the group’s genre-fluid muscle, new album Hyperdialect arrives less like a mission statement and more as a flaming musical Molotov, declaring all-out war.

Deadsoul Festival 2026 W/ Shape of Despair (Finland) - Live at the Music Room - Ipswich
Deadsoul Promotions in association with Nytys Talent Agency Present DEADSOUL FESTIVAL 2026 This year we welcome SHAPE OF DESPAIR from Finland as our headliners. Formed in 1995, Shape of Despair are widely regarded as one of the defining acts of the funeral doom metal genre. Known for their immense, glacial compositions, orchestral atmospheres and deeply melancholic soundscapes, the band have spent nearly three decades crafting some of the most immersive and emotionally devastating music in extreme doom. Their music blends a relentless grinding heaviness with sweeping keyboards, layered vocals and haunting atmospheres, creating vast sonic landscapes that have earned them a devoted international following. Signed to Season of Mist. Joining them as main support are OPIA, touring in support of their 2025 debut album I Welcome Thee, Eternal Sleep released on Hammerheart Records. Hailing from a combination of the United Kingdom and Spain, Opia deliver a powerful blend of gothic doom and blackened heaviness, combining soaring female vocals with harsh passages and expansive melodies. Drawing comparisons to acts such as Swallow the Sun, Draconian and Sentenced, Opia bring a dynamic and emotionally charged performance that perfectly complements the sombre atmosphere of the evening. The band recently completed a high-profile UK tour alongside Swallow the Sun and Saturnus, further establishing themselves as a rising force within the European doom scene.
