Looking for a gig this month? Well we're here to help you. Check out our rundown of the main gigs in the UK this March!

Cosmosis Festival

 height=

As given in more detail in our extended preview, Cosmosis marks the first festival of the year and where better to get your psychedelic Rock on than at Victoria Warehouse on 12th March? You’ve got legendary acts like The Jesus & Mary Chain and Brian Jonestown Massacre alongside fresh blood like Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats - seems rude not to.

12th March - Victoria Warehouse - Manchester

Creeper

 height=

Creeper’s stock is hitting nuclear levels at the moment. Fans and Press across Heavy Music are starting to look to Creeper as a band who will potentially spearhead the British Punk scene for years to come and it’s at the live shows where they’ve been the most impressive. Venues across the tour needed to be upgraded, and understandably so.

2nd March - Moles - Bath
3rd March - London - The Underworld
4th March - The Forum - Royal Tunbridge Wells


Machine Head

Machine Head never fail to deliver live and since abandoning the festival scene and focussing on their fans with these special “An Evening With Machine Head” shows the band have been absolutely red hot. Expect classics stretching across their discography, with a few rarities thrown in for good measure. Now… MACHINE FUCKING HEAD!

2nd March - Open - Norwich
3rd March - Rock City - Nottingham

Mass Mental
 height=

A gig announced almost completely out of nowhere sees a super group made up of members from Metallica, Skindred, Kyuss and more. Led by ‘Tallica bassist Robert Trujillo this was understandably a gig which sold out in minutes before needing a venue upgrade. We’re promised Funky Metal in abundance - we can’t wait.

13th March - Electric Ballroom - London

Fleshgod Apocalypse

 height=

Amon Amarth

 height=

Amon Amarth are back, and whilst it’s unconfirmed so far whether they’re bring the longboat, the band are on the warpath to smash their way back towards the higher echelons of Metal have a few waning years. The new track they released showed a promising return to form, something which hopefully carries through in to the live set at this one off show.

22nd March - The Underworld - London

Wolf Alice

 height=

Wolf Alice’s popularity is rising faster than probably even they can grasp at the moment. Let’s take this tour for example, what started as a night or two at the Kentish Town Forum developed in to four straight nights, sold out. That’s an incredible achievement for any band. The future is bright for this lot.
