Get yourself to New Cross Inn in London this weekend as it will be taken over by Reality Unfolds Festival – your only stop for the best bands of underground hardcore, screamo and extreme metal scene. This highly explosive and rebellious line-up will break even the most experienced fans of the genre. Make sure to pack your earplugs and look after yourself in the moshpits, and remember it’s a three-dayer – don’t go all out in one evening!
Full line-up is available on their Instagram socials here.

Below are some of the most anticipated acts for the festival:
Friday Headline – Wristmeetrazor
After all these years of activity across the pond, they are finally about to visit the UK for the first time. Mixing up the classic metalcore & screamo with their newfound industrial noise, we are sure they will wrap up the Friday night line-up, leaving you wanting more. In their own words:
If we were able to stick around another day, we would have loved to be able to catch the Ringworm set on Saturday. Our last two US tours have been at the same time as tours they’ve done
Friday – Doors 5 pm – Full Line-up:

- Dry Socket
- Long Goodbye

Saturday Headline – Ringworm
Legends of the metal and metalcore, which formed in Cleveland, Ohio back in the last 80s – we are confident many bands on the bill at this year’s Reality Unfolds have been looking up to them and what an honour it must be to share the same stage! Ensure you catch their mix of metalcore, hardcore, punk and thrash metal. In their own words:
“We couldn’t be more excited to return to the UK after nearly 16 years. It will be amazing to reconnect with friends and fans, young and old, and see so many new bands. We cannot wait to destroy the stage and start as much chaos in the pit as humanly possible. Be ready to rage. We will.”
