# NW METAL CALENDAR

Last updated on 7/31/24.

ANNOUNCEMENT: As a public service, we started this page many years ago to list upcoming metal shows in the Seattle area (and sometimes elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest) as we become aware of them.

WARNING: We get our information from press releases and web sites for the venues for the shows, but we can’t guarantee that what we find and post here will stay accurate as time passes, so check it out for yourself. We don’t promise to update the info if a show is canceled or a band drops off a tour or the venue changes. So before you show up to buy tickets at the door or online, check with the venue to make sure nothing has changed.

CAVEAT: Sometimes our editor doesn’t list a show because he’s unfamiliar with the bands, or because he missed an announcement or forgot to check a venue’s calendar. If you’re a band or a venue and you want us to add your info here, or if you’re a music lover who thinks we ought to list an event you know of, leave a comment below or send an e-mail to: islander@nocleansinging.com

   Don’t forget Isis at Neumos on June 1!

   - Islander says:
     May 11, 2010 at 1:25 pm

     Thanks for that tip! It’s now added. (We clearly need to pay more regular attention to the Neumo’s calendar.)

   - Islander says:
     May 19, 2010 at 7:41 am

     Well fuck, it looks like Isis broke up — but according to the band’s statement, they will complete the current tour — which will be their last. Here’s the statement:

   Wow, fuck, Finntroll and Barren Earth on the same bill? That’s epic as hell. Of course, no Swedish tour. WTF?

   - Islander says:
     September 23, 2010 at 8:20 am

     Epic is the word. So sorry for no Sweden . . .

3. Brian says:
   July 21, 2011 at 2:00 pm

   How about The Power of the Riff tour on Aug 19th at Neumo’s?

   - Islander says:
     July 21, 2011 at 2:40 pm

     Man, thanks for that one! I just added it up above.

4. Brendon Williams says:
   August 19, 2011 at 4:50 pm

   Although it would be awesome, I’m pretty sure Tesseract won’t be playing on the Periphery/Textures show. Also, you have the date wrong: it’s on the 22nd, not the 26th!

5. Brendon Williams says:
   August 19, 2011 at 4:52 pm

   I take it back – it looks like Tesseract will be playing after all! They’re not listed on the posters though. But still, the show is on September 22nd.

   - Islander says:
     August 19, 2011 at 5:03 pm

     Thanks for catching that goof. I’ve fixed the date now — and yes, Tesseract is still listed as performing on the Studio Seven web site.

6. John says:
   September 12, 2011 at 11:07 am

   Funeral Age is playing with Decapitated on October 14th at Studio 7 as well. Please update the info.

     Done. Man is that going to be a helluva show.

    Mayhem Festival is happening July 3rd. There are some pretty good bands on the list, like Behemoth, Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth, Machine Head, and Mastodon. And some…not so exciting bands as well.

    - Islander says:
      March 20, 2013 at 7:21 pm

      Man, thanks for that tip. I’ve been hunkered down in a cave the last 2 weeks and missed that announcement. That’s a really mixed lineup, but the awesome part of it is pretty fuckin awesome. I just added it to this page.

      - Dan C. says:
        March 25, 2013 at 6:39 pm

        There’s definitely a variety. I’m curious to see how all the different stages work, timing-wise and such.

18. Dan C. says:
    April 26, 2013 at 4:24 pm

    June 19 – Studio Seven: Melechesh, Vreid, Lightning Swords Of Death, Reign Of Lies.
    Why must this be on a Wednesday?

    - Islander says:

      That is one badass line-up. I’ve added it to the calendar (thanks for the tip).

19. Dan C. says:
    May 16, 2013 at 6:07 pm

    - Islander says:
      October 22, 2013 at 10:43 pm

      Oh man, I feel your pain. Unfortunately, about all I have time to do for this page is try to keep up with what’s happening in the Seattle area where I live, updating it about once a week. It’s really the only part of this site that’s purely local.

    - Josh says:
      August 19, 2019 at 10:58 am

      i’m from Minneapolis and honestly it’s your best bet for Metal. some bands out of Minneapolis are; False, Tvaer, Hive, Panopticon, Wolf Blood, Circadian Ritual. as far as venues St. Cloud has the Red Carpet Night Club and Minneapolis has a ton of venues (a lot ran through First Ave) and Extreme Noise record store is always worth checking out when you can for records and local show flyers. Detroit lakes is a bit of a drive so this info might not be great for your situation

25. who knows says:
    December 15, 2013 at 10:49 pm

    I don’t know if this is anything people here will be interested in, but Feb 11- at El Corazon, Chelsea Grin (and several other irrelevant bands.)

    - Islander says:
      December 16, 2013 at 4:16 am

      Yes, I’l add that — and thanks.

    Under the section blogroll on this page, when you click on Northwest Metal Alliance, it comes up with a septic tank on it.

    FYI

    - Islander says:
      February 5, 2014 at 5:46 am

      Ooops! Well, the Northwest Metal Alliance link is obviously defunct. Why it’s redirecting to that septic tank site, I have no idea — not my doing, though it is kind of funny. Anyway, I’ve deleted the link. Reminds me that I need to clean up the blogroll, which I haven’t done in… forever.

    Hi. Drummer Oz here in Seattle interested in djent music, etc. I’m versatile if needed for other styles, but I love myself some breakdowns. Moved from so-Cali. 16 years playing drums and id like to hit the stages around the world with a good team. Anybody out there? I also rent a studio space in Fremont. I’m down for short term gigs as well. I’m 24 and ready to go. I also play a little guitar amd plenty of piano/keys. I have some recording equipment as well. Worked hard to get up here. I’d like for a longer term partnership with people who have passports willing to follow through for tours after we spend the next couple years together inspiring people to get on their feet with the things we can collaborate through our rhythms and lyrics. There’s no question about dedication, I only want those who are seriously dedicated to rock out and open up for starters other bands. If anyone is out there, please feel free to message me via email. Thanks. -Oz.

        I personally like the idea of seeing what is going on all around the Pacific Northwest. I know Seattle, Portland, and sometimes Olympia are not the only places doing shows. The NW is getting too big for that anyway, other places need to step up, and get coverage.

        - Islander says:
          December 27, 2015 at 10:06 am

          I agree. When I first started this calendar more than six years ago, that was my aim. But as time has passed and I’ve gotten busier with other aspects of the site, it’s been tough to make time to track down shows outside the Seattle area on any kind of regular basis.

87. Marty says:

       Yeah, definitely. I haven’t had a chance for the last two weeks to do a complete survey of venues and update this with new shows. Going to do that this weekend.

     - Islander says:
       September 19, 2016 at 5:04 pm

       I don’t remember why I did that. They’re now playing in Vancouver on the 20th. I’ve corrected it and also added the two dates in Portland on Nov 25-26.

     Hey dude, not an addition to the list but just wanted to thank you for doing this. I check this frequently and without it I end up missing a lot of shows, I’m pretty busy/depressed so this helps a lot.

     - Islander says:
       February 23, 2017 at 2:14 pm

       Thank you very much for this comment! And it reminds me that I haven’t updated the calendar in a week or 10 days — which I’ll do soon.

     Haven’t seen cough and wounded giant on that windhand show anywhere but here. Where’s that line up coming from? Neumos says they’re playing with hell and UN which is fucking sick…

     - Islander says:
       March 19, 2017 at 9:06 am

       I originally got the info from a Relapse Records press release, but Neumos obviously knows what they’ve scheduled. I’ve changed the calendar to match what Neumos is showing.

     Hi there. I almost had heart attack yesterday, when i saw that Cannibal Corpse are playing at one club and Cryptopsy with Belphegor are playing at another one ON THE SAME DAY. And i was planning to see them both and i thought this was the MOST retarded thing in the world to make death metal shows like this. But just now i double checked it and it appears there is a mistake on your calendar. Belphegor+ Cryptopsy are playing on NOV 27. So, it’d be nice to correct it. Thanks.

     - Islander says:
       September 24, 2017 at 9:57 am

       Oh hell! Sorry for almost causing a heart attack, and thanks for letting me know about my goof. I fixed it.

     Wait, you live in Seattle too? Have you gone to any shows in Seattle recently and I’ve ran into you and not realized it? Are we best friends? Are you my buddy Sam?

     - Islander says:

         October 2, 2017 at 12:43 pm

         I saw Inquisition a few weeks ago and that was badass, even though Uada stole the show. Did you catch it?

159. Sean says:
     October 7, 2017 at 2:50 pm

     Looks like the Soulfly show is exclusively tracks from Nailbomb’s classic Point Blank album. Should be a fun show.

     So is this calendar dead? It used to be an awesome source of shows…

     - Islander says:
       November 7, 2017 at 1:43 am

       Not dead, I just haven’t had a chance to update it thoroughly in a couple of weeks.

162. youdontneedtoknow says:
     November 21, 2017 at 2:42 am

     Just so you’re aware, the main link to the NW Metal Calendar on the main NCS site and Google currently links to a version with mostly shows from September and October, with only 5 shows currently listed taking place at any point in the future. I see you’ve updated the real list, but it’s currently only accessible after browsing through to the end of the comment pages. For the sake of all Seattle area metal fans, please fix this at your earliest convenience. Thank you.

     - Islander says:
       November 21, 2017 at 7:10 am

       I’m not sure why that has been happening. I just made some changes in the way the comments are displayed. Has that fixed the issue?

163. Rich says:

     Would you consider any shows coming up “Don’t miss it”? I like metal but there’s so many bands I’m not familiar with!

186. Huld says:

     Mournful congregation/mortuary drape/satan have stolen the year for me as best shows, but I feel a lack of good death/black metal in fall/December, which feels like an awful shame for these gloomy seasons.

     - Islander says:
       November 14, 2018 at 6:25 am

       It would be an awful shame — which reminds me that I need to update this calendar. Maybe something else new has appeared on the horizon that’s in keeping with the gloomy season.

     Across the water from Seattle guitar and vocals kinda guy. Trying to start a band, preferably some extreme metal. If not black metal than doom or death for sure. Kinda just fucked like the most of us. Looking for some mates just to let out everything at a good jam session, who knows where we go.
