The Six Six Bar and Emanation Metal are proud to present:Six Six Metal Fest VI - Doom Over Cambridge
With very special guests:
The Grey – Instrumental three-piece from Cambridge.
“Cambridge post-metallers The Grey make (largely instrumental) music that weighs down like few others - marrying the pummelling feel of a band like Neurosis or Karma To Burn to big themes with striking nuance and colour.
It’s truly awesome.”
Kerrang

Spectral Darkwave:
SPECTRAL DARKWAVE ARE A SYMPHONIC DEATH DOOM METAL BAND FROM THE UK
Hatched in a cold laboratory located outside the streams of time, spawned in the dark sewers of Victorian London...the myths surrounding the origins of Spectral Darkwave are many. Fusing the intimidating splendour of symphonic death metal and the sombre majesty of doom, adding a touch of black metal’s bleak fire with an infusion of industrial terror – Spectral Darkwave are a band like no other. Since the first release from the visionary trio came in 2015 in the form of debut album Last First Contact on the band’s own Occidental Records label.
Far from the first faltering steps of a band searching for an identity; Spectral Darkwave seemed to emerge from the void a fully formed entity with breathtaking power already at their fingertips. Spectral Darkwave have played all over the country with such acts a s Krysthla, Countless Skies, Gevaudan, Morass of Molasses, Wretched Soul, Body Harvest, Concrete Age, and most recently Bloodstock Open Air ’21 where Spectral Darkwave delivered a triumphant set to the gathered hordes, on a bill featuring legends of metal Judas Priest and Kreator.
Over the course of 2019 the band released two superb singles, The Price Of Victory and A Toll Is Due, leaving fans restless and hungry for a second full length album. On October 8th 2021 their patience was rewarded as the next chapter in the epic tale of Spectral Darkwave was unveiled - At Outer Dark. As the cycle continues, the band are set to insert themselves in the live metal timeline in venues around the UK.
Will you join them in their quest At Outer Dark?

Denali
Denali are a British death/doom metal five-piece formed in 2020. With a style inclusive of the archetype laid down by the classic death/doom artists of the past - as well as more modern elements, both melodic and aggressive - Denali have established a reputation for crushingly heavy, atmospheric live performances - including well received performances at Bloodstock Open Air and Warhorns Festival, amongst others.
The release of their debut, self-titled EP in Spring 2022 was greeted with an extremely positive critical response and received warmly amongst doom lovers far and wide. 2023/24 sees Denali continue to spread their influence with select live appearances as the finishing touches to their debut, as-yet untitled album, are applied in the background.

Gévaudan:
Blending heavy and progressive riffs, Iommi-esque solos, truly dynamic song writing and a
strong story thematic, Gévaudan have carved their own unique niche within the doom genre.
Whilst they lean on epic and traditional influences, the band also draw upon progressive, post-
metal and 70’s psychedelia influences to create their sound.
Since their formation in 2013, they have released two EPs and two full length albums. Their
first album, Iter, received an outstanding reception and ‘Umbra’ (their second offering in
collab. With Meuse Music Records) delivers an even more epic and progressive approach
whilst maintaining all the heaviness, emotion and melodic trippy interjections that have seen
them continue to grow and evolve.
Gévaudan are consistently praised for their take on the genre, being described as; ‘strong of
riff’, ‘powerful’, ‘emotionally involving’ and ‘hypnotic’, and Umbra has been cited as a
‘masterpiece’.
Their live performances raise the bar further. They bring the same dynamics and emotive
power delivered on record and have always been excellently received by the doom, and wider
metal fraternity. Their festival appearances including Desertfest London, Doom vs Stoner and
Hammerfest have received huge plaudits from both press and fans alike. They are now a well-
regarded and established act in the UK doom scene.

Skinchanger:
Solidified in 2023, Skinchanger are an explosive 3-piece progressive metal outfit formed in Norwich, UK. Drawing inspiration from iconic bands such as Gojira, Lamb of God & Devin Townsend, as well as absorbing the complex melodies and rhythms of bands like Tool & Mudvayne to name a few, Skinchanger creates a sonic landscape that captivates audiences and leaves everything on the stage through dynamic progression, powerful riffing and captivating lyrics.
Skinchanger’s lyrics, theme and untamed story-telling touches upon self-discovery and personal growth with notes of naturalism through each of the member’s own personal experiences.

Praetorian:
"Blurring the lines between riffy sadistic sludge, black metal shrieks and savage hardcore extremity, Praetorian are for the ones who like their metal furious with a dash of black humour and Brit cynicism.

Nomadic Reign:
The earliest records show that Nomadic Reign surfaced in the spring of 2017. When three wandering riff conjurers met in a doom filled tavern in the East of England, Nomadic Reign was born. In 2021 the band decided to seek like-minded Doom Merchants to play some live shows. Now with a few shows under their belt, and a few personnel changes, the band plan on spreading their Dystopian Sermons through Sludge Fuelled Riffs playing shows whenever and wherever they can. The band also plan on heading to the studio to record new material. Watch this space... Insta: https://www.instagram.com/nomadicreign/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NomadicReign
