๐๏ธ Get Tickets Now!
Hold onto your crab claws and prepare for robo-shenanigans โ Evil Scarecrow are back, and theyโre dragging their glorious madness to Cardiff this November! ๐ฅ
The kings of absurd, theatrical metal are bringing their Premature Obsolescence Tour to The Globe, Cardiff on Sunday 2nd November 2025, and if youโve never witnessed an Evil Scarecrow showโฆ well, strap in. This isnโt your average night of headbanging โ itโs more like stepping into a surreal sci-fi metal pantomime powered by riffs, lasers, confetti cannons, and crowd-synchronized crab-walking. ๐ฆโก
๐คฏ Whatโs an Evil Scarecrow Show Like?
Imagine if Iron Maiden collided with Monty Python in a nuclear reactor made entirely of glowsticks and foam robots โ and youโre still only halfway there. With tongue-in-cheek sci-fi themes, hilariously chaotic crowd interactions, and monstrous riffs lurking beneath it all, this is heavy metal like youโve never seen before. Whether you’re being instructed to flail like a robot, chant the name of a space vixen, or perform synchronised mosh aerobics, you’re in for an utterly unforgettable night.
โGet ready for one of the most absurd, theatrical, and wildly entertaining metal shows youโll ever experience.โ โ Divergent Promotions
๐คก Special Guest: Andrew OโNeill
Adding even more chaos to this mind-bending evening is the brilliantly offbeat Andrew OโNeill โ a cult comedian, heavy metal devotee, and certified warlock of weirdness. Whether riffing on sub-genres of doom metal or lamenting the woes of steampunk, OโNeill brings surreal humour and a deep love of loud music that fits perfectly with Evil Scarecrowโs mission to turn metal on its head โ and set fire to it for good measure.
๐ฅ The Premature Obsolescence Tour
This tour is more than just a gig โ itโs a glitch in the metal matrix. Titled the Premature Obsolescence Tour, Evil Scarecrow are poking fun at our throwaway tech culture, malfunctioning AI overlords, and maybe even their own robot props from 2008 that still won’t die.
Expect new material, old bangers like โCrabulonโ and โRobototron,โ and possibly some new onstage mechanical monstrosities built from recycled vending machines. Itโs metal, itโs mayhem, and itโs oddly moving.

๐ง Final Thoughts from The Riff Report
If youโve never been in a room full of strangers shouting โSCAR-E-CROWโ while pretending to be malfunctioning droids โ this is your moment. Evil Scarecrow arenโt just a band; theyโre a full-body experience in theatrical metal stupidity, and we absolutely love it. Add in Andrew OโNeillโs sideways humour and The Globeโs sweatbox atmosphere, and youโve got a gig thatโs part metal show, part comedy sketch, part cosmic fever dream.
Whether youโre a long-time fan or a curious chaos gremlin, donโt miss this show. Itโs Cardiffโs turn to get weird โ and we wouldnโt have it any other way. ๐ค๐๐ค
