GODSTICKS

It’s been a long and eventful road for Godsticks since emerging onto the scene with their eponymously titled EP in 2009 showcasing the band’s then progressive-rock leanings. Since then, subsequent albums became progressively heavier and received further critical acclaim, culminating in the ‘genre redefining’ prog metal masterpiece that was ‘Emergence’, which ultimately led to them being signed to Kscope. Having extensively toured Europe since 2012, in the last few years the band have finally gained recognition as the explosive, high energy live act they’d always threatened to become. Drummer Tom Price and guitarist Gavin Bushell bring an accomplished and aggressive playing style to back up Darran Charles’ unique vocal sound and Dan Nelson’s driving bass. Godsticks released their sixth studio album in May 2023 on Kscope, titled “This Is What A Winner Looks Like”.

Their fifth studio album ‘Inescapable’ – was released via Kscope in February 2020, featuring in the top 20 of many end-of-year music journalist lists. The band embarked on a UK tour in 2021 followed by countless blistering festival appearances in 2022 including Tech Fest and Prog Power.
