MASTIFF

Whether spreading plagues, turning the Earth to ash or teetering on the precipice of depression, you can always count on Kingston Upon Hull's premier misery merchants Mastiff to ruin your day. Now well over a decade into their parade of embittered misanthropy, the East Yorkshire sextet have definitively burned their mark into the UK's extreme music scene with a fistful of mangled hardcore and sludge riffs and an endless well of spite.

Mastiff's reputation as a ferocious live entity only continues to grow, as they have spent the last few years racking up appearances at prestigious heavy music festivals like Bloodstock, Damnation, Incineration and DesertFest to name but a few, as well as sharing stages and touring with the likes of Avatar, Palm Reader, Conan, Black Tongue, Cult Leader, Calligram, Iron Monkey, Raging Speedhorn and many, many more.

As for recorded output, following two critically acclaimed albums on MNRK Heavy (High On Fire, The Callous Daoboys, Underoath, Darkest Hour etc), as well as their track 'Acid Breather' appearing in the multi-million-selling video game Cyberpunk 2077 and its Netflix anime spin-off Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Mastiff have finally and proudly joined the hallowed roster of Church Road Records for the release of 'For All The Dead Dreams', a blistering five-song assault of pummelling and aggravated hardcore.
