Pestilence + Damim

Dutch death metal pioneers Pestilence return to UK stages this December, bringing a career-spanning set that bridges their late-‘80s foundations with their evolving, progressive edge, joined by Damim.

Led by guitarist-vocalist Patrick Mameli, the band’s current lineup delivers the technical firepower and ferocity that has made Pestilence a pillar of extreme metal for decades. Fans can expect a mix of long-awaited classics, deep cuts, and a first taste of material from the forthcoming Portals album-due spring 2026.

Patrick Mameli comments: "With the Portals release now set for 2026, these UK shows won’t yet be the official tour-but we’re dropping some of the new tracks into the set alongside older material that rarely gets played, plus of course the classics. It’s going to be a set full of surprises."

Adding further firepower, London’s own Damim join as main support. Veterans of the UK scene, they bring their signature blend of death and thrash: intricate, relentless, and always delivered with conviction.
