'Kin Hell Fest preview: Part 3

 
Well, this is it. The 'Kin Hell Fest is now less than 24 hours away! So without further ado, We Must Obey completes its in-depth preview of Leeds' newest all-dayer and takes a look at the final four bands:

THE AFTERNOON GENTLEMEN


Without question Leeds' most uncompromising, batshit insane grind/powerviolence band. Formed in 2007, The Afternoon Gents have gone on to tour and perform with the likes of Eyehategod, Weekend Nachos, Insect Warfare and Magrudergrind to name a few, and have put out numerous splits, EPs, tapes etc. They flit from anywhere to slow, crushing doom-style riffs, into hyperspeed buggery in a hiccup. Be prepared. Your mind will be blown. Facebook

KHUDA


A spectacular instrumental progressive/post metal two-piece also hailing from Leeds. Similar to the likes of Pelican, Isis, etc., what they create is nothing short of stunning. Something different for the 'Kin Hell Fest, and all the better for it. Check out 'Arrival' from their EP 'Stratospherics'. Bandcamp

Khuda - Arrival

ASTROHENGE


Described by many as one of the UK's best live acts, Astrohenge do away with genres, refusing to be pigeonholed as their music bounds across different soundscapes and styles with a stubborn refusal to be anything ordinary. This London lot are probably going to be one of the highlights of the day, a treat not to be missed. Facebook

INGESTED



After a full day of moshing, slamming, drinking, partying and tripping out, will you have anything left in the tank? You best better do for headliners Ingested. The Manchester mob will close out the 'Kin Hell Fest with a set packed to the brim with their mix of brutal death metal and death slam. Their sickening paeans will no doubt provide a suitably violent end to the day's musical proceedings. MySpace

And that folks, is that. That's all thirteen bands covered, a suitable introduction for those checking some of these bands out for the first time, and a timely reminder of what to look forward to for absolutely everyone. If you missed the previous segments, part 1 is here, and part 2 can be found here. Not forgetting of course, the full press release, which can be read here.

All ticket information etc. can be found within that press release, but for those of you without, you may wish to go through the official channels - the 'Kin Hell Fest website and the event pages on the social networks, with it being such short notice. That said, there should still be tickets available on the door on the day - just make sure you check first, to be on the safe side.

So, 'Kin Hell Fest. Tomorrow. 12:00pm. 'Ave it!
