In a scene dominated by soundalike bands, Ward XVI not only provide something different but make you remember them by having enough variety in their music to stand by itself as well as taking their staging far beyond others going down the costumed route

I highly recommend travelling to London or Reading (or the other dates if you’re reading this miles from Oxford) saw them play RabidFest and @wardxvi.bsky.social were one of the most interesting bands. @pulveriseuk.bsky.social are also worth turning up early to watch

If there's one thing we know about metal in the 21st Century, it's that colourful characters and big personalities can go a long way. Horrorcore heroes Ward XVI certainly don't demure in new single Blood Is The New Black,

Been listening all week to @wardxvi.bsky.social new album ID3ENTITY. A helter skelter metal ride through Psychoberrie’s release and final actions. Great musicianship with varied influences and wonderful songwriting. Buy the CD, download or stream, let’s give this band a chart position they deserve.
