Oi oi… who needs a muddy field and £8 pints when you can get your face melted FOR FREE in the middle of a record shop?! 😈
That’s exactly what went down (or is going down, depending when you’re reading this, butt) as Indominus roll into HMV Belfast like a pack of sonic wrecking balls.
🧠 WAIT… DEATH METAL… IN HMV?!
Yeah, you heard that right.
Forget quietly browsing vinyl while someone in the corner debates which pressing of Dark Side of the Moon is best…
This is full-blown, skull-crushing, riff-heavy CHAOS right between the shelves 💀📀
Indominus are bringing:
- 🩸 Filthy riffs
- 🥁 Machine-gun drumming
- 🎤 Vocals that sound like a demon gargling gravel
- 😤 Energy levels that’ll wake the dead (literally judging by that poster…)
And the best part?
💸 IT’S FREE. ZERO QUID. NADA.
No tickets. No excuses. Just turn up and get involved.

🤘 “DEATH METAL NOT YOUR THING?” … GIVE IT A GO ANYWAY
Look, not everyone wakes up craving blast beats and breakdowns — fair enough.
But THIS is exactly the kind of gig you take a punt on:
👉 No cost
👉 Local band support
👉 Something a bit different from your usual Spotify loop
You might walk in curious…
And walk out like “RIGHT, WHERE’S THE NEAREST PIT?!” 😤🔥
🏴 SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SCENE, BUTT
This is what it’s all about, mun.
Grassroots gigs. Bands grinding it out. Fans showing up.
No corporate nonsense — just pure, loud, unapologetic metal energy.
If we don’t support these events… they disappear.
And we’re not having that, are we? ❌
💀 FINAL WORD (NO CORPORATE WAFFLE HERE)
Free gig. Heavy riffs. Local band. Record shop carnage.
What more do you want — a Greggs sausage roll in the pit? (Actually… don’t answer that 👀)
If you’re anywhere near Belfast…
GET DOWN THERE AND MAKE SOME NOISE 🤘🔥

Let’s keep the scene LOUD. ALWAYS. 💥
Michael is the founder, editor, and chief riff wrangler behind The Riff Report, an independent Welsh rock and metal publication built by fans, for fans. With a lifelong passion for loud guitars, unforgettable live shows, and the incredible community that surrounds rock and metal, he created The Riff Report to celebrate everything that makes the scene special—from legendary headline acts and grassroots venues to rising bands that deserve to be heard.
A familiar face at festivals across the UK, Michael spends much of the year covering events including Download Festival, Bloodstock Open Air, Steelhouse Festival, Firevolt, Plumpton Revival, and many more. Whether he’s battling the Welsh weather on a mountainside, surviving a weekend in a muddy campsite, or squeezed against the front barrier with thousands of fellow fans, he’s always searching for the next great story to share.
As editor of The Riff Report, Michael writes festival guides, breaking news, album reviews, gig reviews, interviews, opinion pieces, nostalgia features, and behind-the-scenes stories from across the rock and metal world. His writing combines honest opinions, humour, and a genuine love for live music, bringing readers closer to the bands, festivals, venues, and people that keep the scene alive.
Michael is particularly passionate about supporting independent artists, local venues, charities, and the wider UK rock and metal community. He believes every band deserves a chance to be discovered and every festival has a story worth telling. Through The Riff Report, he aims to shine a spotlight on both the biggest names in rock and the future stars waiting to break through.
When he’s not writing or interviewing artists, you’ll probably find him exploring festival campsites, photographing live shows, chatting with fellow fans over a pint, or planning the next road trip in search of more riffs, bigger crowds, and unforgettable moments.
Above all, Michael believes rock and metal are about more than music—they’re about community, friendship, and creating memories that last a lifetime. That’s exactly what The Riff Report exists to celebrate.
Proudly Welsh. Proudly Loud. Always chasing the next great riff. 🤘
