5th December BMC presents a Bradford Day Of Metal

On 5th December this year, there is a whole heap of metal happening in Bradford with tons of live music over 3 venues and a fantastic team of DJs over at least 4 venues.

At The Exchange Alehouse on Market Street they present their annual "Deathfest" - this is an all day marathon of death metal bands with a whopping 9 bands from 11.30am and some of  Bradford's finest metal DJs playing inbetween the sets. Entry is absolutely free and customers are advised to arrive early since the event looks set to reach capacity very quickly with people coming from all over the UK and beyond. Facebook Event

Up at The Zuu bar from 5pm there is an "Evening Of Doom" for those of you who like their metal slower paced. There are 3 or 4 bands confirmed at the time of writing, with more in the pipeline. Again, this event is free entry and the same team of DJs who are playing at Deathfest will also be doing sets throughout the evening. The Zuu bar closes at 1am. Facebook Event

Up at the 1in12 club is a faster paced affair with local thrashers Defeator and Korakoid shredding the evening away and fast paced screamo merchants OpenFire finishing off the proceedings. Entry for this event is £3. Facebook Event

Throughout the day, if you want to take some time out to relax in a chilled environment with background jukebox music and quality beer, the Black Swan on Thornton road will offer a great haven to give those eardrums a rest before choosing your next destination.

For those of you who want to party on until 3am, Bradford Rio's will be playing a wide selection of metal for your ears, providing the perfect end to the day. Entry is free before 11pm and £5 afterwards. You are guaranteed a night of request friendly great music from some of the most experienced rock/metal DJs the city has to offer.

Best of all, these venues are no more than a few minutes walk away from each other, so it is easy to circulate around the area. You can have a look at the location of all these places and more on our route planner. This looks set to be a great day for metal in Bradford with bands and fans coming from far and wide and there should be something for every metalhead's tastes.
