Grail Guard Live at Krakatoa, Aberdeen - Krakatoa

GRAIL GUARD formed in 2022, brought to boil at a time where UK government incompetence resulted in tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths. Known for being part of several music scenes in the Midlands, they clocked up over 100 gigs in three years supporting many international heavyweights and playing to a maximum capacity crowd at 2025 Manchester Punk Festival. They are just back from Europe and make their first ever appearance north of the Forth at Krakatoa's storied stage.

DEARY ME are a local four piece playing melodic gruff punk, not unlike Samiam, Seaweed, Smoking Popes and indeed Skizofrenik. They have gigged heavily round Aberdeen's toilet venues and look to be playing central belt small venues in the coming year. Expect guitar solos over minor key riffs and sweet sung vocals. How did I get through that without an Alkaline Trio comparison i will never know

ENDURE clock up their third gig in total and first at Krakatoa. Positive hardcore in the style of the 1990s greats, so get your finger jabbing in the air for their Kid Dynamite / Gorilla Biscuits / 7 Seconds style short and fast bangers.

Central Belt / Tayside? / Inverness? band, who will be on third, are to be confirmed shortly!
