Compulsive Necrophilia in the UK
The Grim Bell tolls thrice in July, as the coldest of funeral ceremonies offer contrast to Summer’s grace. Conspiring with Killtown Bookings, alongside Subterranean Promotions and Paralytic Promotions, HeathenStorm Productions do their part to bring forth cult Italian Doom Metal veterans ABYSMAL GRIEF to the UK. Tour support is provided by PANTHEÏST, with local doom…

London locked in
The lineup for the London show has locked in nicely, with kudos to Morbid Angle for curating such a barbaric bill. Joining DIOCLETIAN and TRIVAX on stage we have BLOOD CHALICE (FI) and GORGON VOMIT (UK). A stacked bill for a Tuesday, so make sure to turn up early for an evening of apocalyptic excess!…

Nexian March
Much gratitude to the many promoters and venues who’ve already been in contact to take on this spring’s DIOCLETIAN UK tour. We’re reviewing the offers over the weekend and will get back in touch with everyone once we’ve hammered out the routing. In the meantime, an opening salvo from new album “Inexorable Nexus”, out this…

My Week with the Mentors
This was never going to be an easy tour. Trouble started once the announcement was made, with a clandestine call to cancel one of the shows leaving me on the backfoot towards finding a replacement. Having support bands become less available than hoped also threw some surprises my way. With energies devoted to resolving the…

The Reviews are In!
“No hate to Scream & Shake Horror Bar or Hot Pink Sewage, but mentors acted out of line tonight, flashed ass and pubes at an 18 year old, and laughed about it afterwards, and had to be told to piss off multiple times King’s of sleaze indeed, sleaze bags”

Under the Hood
It’s been a frantic few weeks pulling everything together for the MENTORS tour, with complete line-ups only secured as the New Year ticked into being. An exhausting endeavour, although I’m never one to back away from such challenge. Given timing and circumstance, I knew this wouldn’t be an easy ride. Cancellations and complaints forced swift…

In Defence of Offence
It’s no secret that MENTORS have drawn ire in their half-century of history. Starting in the 1970s with the “I Can” attitude of youthful rebellion, these offensive upstarts pioneered the Shock Rock genre through their indomitable lyrics and style. Appalling, gross, and tongue planted firmly in collective cheek, this band were here to repulse and…

Into the Vortex
We’re all very pleased to announce the Mentors UK Tour is finally back up to full strength! Replacing the cancelled Newcastle date with a welcome Yorkshire exclusive on Monday 8th January. A very special gig this one, as it will be the first of hopefully not-too-many fundraiser shows for Wakefield’s Vortex Bar and Nightclub. Helping…

Dutch Courage
The Mentors European Tour starts tonight at Eindhoven Metal Meeting, closing off the small stage with fifty minutes of filth from 00:40. Plenty of time to check them out even if you’re watching the other guys in hoods on the main stage. If you’re there and can get some footage, please send it over! The…

Start the New Year with Sleaze
HeathenStorm Productions are thrilled to announce their first tour of 2024. Depraved shock-rock legends MENTORS make their long-dreaded return to the UK, bringing their legacy of obscene filth to a town (reasonably) near you. In association with Etrurian Legion Promotion and local promoters, we’ll be (s)hitting up the following locales in short succession: Thursday 4th…

End of the Tour
The Chthonic Odio European tour has concluded, culminating in a pair of passionate performances at Reaper Festival in Derby. Thirty-five dates in fourteen countries over six weeks, with the final UK stretch booked and managed by myself. Ably assisted by promoters and venues up and down the country, and many superb supports. This tour was…
