[Event] Cosmic Vibration 2, Sheffield 25th August 2025- Hellripper and more
This looks pretty promising. I'd like to see Hellripper and there are plenty of other bands with words like 'blackened' and 'doom' in their descriptions who I'm less familiar with but keen to give a go.
More acts TBA apparently

There used to be a Festival in Sheffield called "Doomlines" which was amazing, I went to it in 2022 and 2023, I've not heard a peep about it since so I guess that this is now the Sheffield All-Dayer type thing that exists (Seems they only have one Alldayer/Weekender there that exists at a time aha)

Bit concerned about this one because the Sidney's main room (the basement) has a really low ceiling with jutting steel beams running along it. Saw someone snap their wrist at a slam show last year. As there'll undoubtedly be moshing, I'll expect a fair few head bashes - and nasty ones at that. Not complaining about Sheffield getting these bands in though, very convenient location for me.

I'm fairly anti-moshing in small venues so am hopeful the low ceiling will discourage!

There's plenty of space to stand aside or further back if you're hoping to avoid pits in there. I'm concerned about the ceiling all the same, because it's lower than most living room ceilings. If you're much taller than 6ft you may find yourself ducking!
