Presented by: Divergent Promotions
Support: The Violent Inzident
Tagline: The Ultimate Nu-Metal Tribute Showdown!
💥 Calling all maggots and SOAD-heads – this is not your average tribute gig. It’s a full-blown face-melter of a night, and it’s heading straight for Cardiff this November. On Saturday the 8th, The Globe will be ground zero for a night of pure nu-metal nostalgia as CHOP SUEY and SLIP-NOT bring the energy, chaos, and carnage of System of a Down and Slipknot to life!
🎤 Who Are CHOP SUEY?
Fronted by the UK’s most elite tribute artists, Chop Suey have quickly become THE definitive tribute to System of a Down. From the eerie tones of “Aerials” to the chaotic breakdowns of “B.Y.O.B.” and the all-out madness of the iconic “Chop Suey!,” these guys don’t just play the songs—they unleash them. Expect Serj-like vocals, head-banging riffs, and frantic stage presence. 👊
🎭 Who Are SLIP-NOT?
Don your boiler suits and masks, because Slip-Not are here to transport you to Des Moines with terrifying accuracy. With all nine members suited up, the band smashes through Slipknot’s greatest hits: “Duality,” “Wait and Bleed,” “Psychosocial,” and of course, “People = Sh*t.” Their live show is chaotic, loud, and everything a Slipknot show should be—minus the actual danger (well, mostly). 🔥
🤘 Support from THE VIOLENT INZIDENT
Kicking things off will be The Violent Inzident, a wild and weird parody metal band that’s part satire, part headbanger’s delight. Expect unfiltered humour, outrageous costumes, and surprisingly heavy riffs. Think Steel Panther meets Limp Bizkit at a rave hosted by Ali G. 🧢💀
🧨 What To Expect
- Mosh pits, circle pits, and walls of death (with safety, of course 😉)
- Masked mayhem and nutty theatrics
- A packed house of metalheads reliving the golden age of nu-metal
- Cheap pints, loud amps, and loads of sing-alongs
Whether you grew up with Toxicity and Iowa on repeat or you’re a new-school nu-metal disciple, this is your night to throw down like it’s 2001. Get your cargo pants ready, lace up your Vans, and prepare to scream every lyric like your life depends on it. 🤘
📍 Venue Info

A staple of Cardiff’s live music scene, The Globe offers an intimate setting with fierce sound, great lighting, and plenty of beer. If you’re looking for pit action, you’ll be front and centre. If you’re more of a nod-along-from-the-bar type, you’ll still be in the thick of it.

Final Thoughts
Cardiff, are you ready to go full nu-metal mode? This isn’t just a tribute gig—it’s a celebration of two of the heaviest, weirdest, and most beloved bands in metal history. Whether you’re screaming “Wake up!” or chanting “We won’t die,” this is your moment.
CHOP SUEY vs SLIP-NOT
Who wins?
We do. Every single one of us sweaty, happy, slightly bruised gig goblins in the pit.
🖤 See you at The Globe.
