Straight outta Dublin’s underground and swinging riffs like concrete blocks, Charnel Crown are a groove metal powerhouse built on grit, graft, and proper working-class fire 🤘💥

Formed in December 2025, this four-piece isn’t here to reinvent metal — they’re here to remind you why it hits so hard in the first place. No gimmicks, no posing, no nonsense… just heavy, riff-driven music straight from the soul 😤🔥

🇮🇪 BUILT DIFFERENT – DUBLIN’S NO-NONSENSE METAL MACHINE

Charnel Crown’s sound is rooted in:

  • Crushing groove 🪨
  • Raw aggression 😈
  • Tight, modern precision ⚙️

It’s metal made by working-class fans, for working-class fans — the kind that rattles your chest, fuels the pit, and sticks with you long after the amps cool down 🔊

This isn’t polished for radio…
This is forged in rehearsal rooms, pubs, and sweat-soaked stages across Ireland 🍻🔥

👊 MEET THE RIFF MERCHANTS

This is the crew bringing the noise:

  • 🎤 Dean Donnelly – Vocals
  • 🎸 Stephen “Stitch” Egan – Guitar
  • 🎸 Spencer O’Brien – Bass
  • 🥁 Adam S. – Drums

Together? A tight, no-nonsense unit built for maximum impact on stage and in the pit 🤘

🎸 EXPERIENCE YOU CAN FEEL

  • 🔥 Xentrix
  • 😈 Chelsea Grin
  • 🎭 Avatar
  • 🤘 Fozzy
  • ⚡ Jinjer
  • 🧙 Evil Scarecrow

That stage time shows — tight, confident, and built to hit HARD live 💪
