Beat:Cancer & Church of Madness are back at Facebar, Reading on the Sat 12th Dec 2026. Featuring a host of bands & afterparty DJs.
———-
iVardensphere- UK Exclusive band show
Experimental Tribal Electronic Music from Canada.
iVardensphere is a unique quantity in the world of modern electronic music. Hailing from the unlikely locale of Edmonton Alberta, the project originally emerged from mastermind Scott Fox’s desire to explore both the heavy electronics he cut his teeth spinning in local industrial club nights, and his love of percussion from around the world.
———-
Statiqbloom – Beat:Cancer Debut
Statiqbloom has been creating a fusion of rhythm and noise with haunting dynamics since 2014 combining elements of techno with the experimentation of industrial music.
Currently based in Berlin, he uses a combination of hardware and software to create noisy modular engineered techno. Building his live sets by meshing heavy hard industrialized rhythms with unfolding blackened atmospheres and disorienting vocals.
———-
Matt Hart – Band Show
MATT HART is an industrial artist both musician and DJ, from London, UK and has been involved and creating music for as long as he can remember, starting with the violin at age 6, moving to the deeper viola a couple years later…. jump ahead a chunk of time and he found himself writing and releasing his own music under the same name, MATT HART.
Within his music soundscape, expect to hear beats of Industrial, Electronic/EBM, and Metal blended together – all under a concept of Wastelands 3808 (a post-apocalyptic world) where it is Man VS Machine.
———-
De:feat – 10 years since they last placed for B:C
Defeat are Dark Electro / EBM duo Anthony Matthews (Voice) and Gary Walker (Synthetics).
‘Atmosphere, Angst and< Rhythm’ is how they describe their sound – an unholy hybrid of Nitzer Ebb, NIN, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, Fad Gadget, et al.
———-
Beat:Cancer are also running a second event on the Fri 11th Dec with Schism featuring Metal, Rock, Alt & Drum & Bass. We will be offering a discounted price when we reveal the Friday lineup to all ticket holders of the Saturday.
