MASSACRATION
THE BRAZILIAN GODS OF METAL EXCLUSIVE UK SHOW
20 YEARS TOUR: GATES OF METAL FRIED CHICKEN OF DEATH
Born from Brazil’s iconic comedy troupe Hermes & Renato, Massacration is a one-of-a-kind heavy metal phenomenon that fuses world-class musicianship with sharp satire and theatrical flair. Originally conceived as a fictional heavy metal band, the project quickly evolved into a real, unique and electrifying act, blending parody with genuine metal credibility.
Deeply rooted in classic heavy metal traditions, Massacration both celebrates and playfully subverts the genre, drawing inspiration from legends like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest, while delivering lyrics in a mix of intentionally broken English and Portuguese. Their cult appeal lies in this unique balance: a band that can both mock and master the sound of metal in equal measure.
Beyond the humour, Massacration’s musical pedigree is undeniable. Over the years, their live and studio lineups have featured contributions from some of Brazil’s most respected metal musicians, including Iggor Cavalera (Sepultura) and Ricardo Confessori (Angra, Shaman), reinforcing their status as more than just a comedy act.
Known for their explosive and unpredictable live shows, Massacration delivers a full-throttle experience packed with blistering riffs, soaring vocals, and tongue-in-cheek theatrics. Taking over The Underworld in Camden this August, the band promises a night that is loud, irreverent, and completely unforgettable.
Whether you're a lifelong metalhead or just curious to witness something truly different, this is Massacration at their most chaotic and entertaining - “a banda da galera” bringing their unique brand of metal mayhem to London.
This is a 14+ event. 14 and 15 year olds MUST be accompanied by an adult (18+) / All ticketholders under the age of 25 will be required to carry PHOTO ID.
