NW METAL CALENDAR
We live in the Seattle area and we like live metal. Not just any metal, but the kind of music we cover on this site (NCS Metal). As a public service, we’ll post on this page upcoming shows in the Seattle area (and sometimes elsewhere in the Northwest) as we become aware of them.
WARNING: We get our information from reliable web sites, including the venues for the shows, but we can’t guarantee what we find is accurate, so check it out for yourself. And we don’t promise to update the info if a show is canceled or a band drops off a tour or the venue changes. So before you show up to buy tickets at the door, check with the venue to make sure nothing has changed.
If you’re a band or a venue and you want us to add your info here, leave a comment below or send e-mail to: calendar@nocleansinging.com.

Don’t forget Isis at Neumos on June 1!
Thanks for that tip! It’s now added. (We clearly need to pay more regular attention to the Neumo’s calendar.)
Well fuck, it looks like Isis broke up — but according to the band’s statement, they will complete the current tour — which will be their last. Here’s the statement:

Wow, fuck, Finntroll and Barren Earth on the same bill? That’s epic as hell. Of course, no Swedish tour. WTF?
Epic is the word. So sorry for no Sweden . . .
How about The Power of the Riff tour on Aug 19th at Neumo’s?
Man, thanks for that one! I just added it up above.
Although it would be awesome, I’m pretty sure Tesseract won’t be playing on the Periphery/Textures show. Also, you have the date wrong: it’s on the 22nd, not the 26th!
I take it back – it looks like Tesseract will be playing after all! They’re not listed on the posters though. But still, the show is on September 22nd.
Thanks for catching that goof. I’ve fixed the date now — and yes, Tesseract is still listed as performing on the Studio Seven web site.
Funeral Age is playing with Decapitated on October 14th at Studio 7 as well. Please update the info.
Done. Man is that going to be a helluva show.
Very awesome! Thank you very much!
The Ocean is playing with Devin Townsend too!!!!!!!
Wowee. I just updated that.
Super Happy Story Time Land is going to be the only local opener for Deicide on March 18th
Cool! I just added SHSTL to that lineup.
NOV. 15 TDWP, Whitechapel, Enter Shikari, For Today at Roseland Theatre Portland Oregon
Go to the upcoming shows section of truemetalseattleforums.org for the most comprehensive listing of upcoming Metal shows, both local and national.
Huntress and Holy Grail opening for Dragonforce on May 5th. Those are the bands many people will go for me thinks.
This should be updated to combine these two shows:
NOV 10 at Showbox SoDo: GWAR, DevilDriver, Cancer Bates, Legacy of Disorder
NOV 10 at Neumos: Napalm Death, Municipal Waste, Exhumed, Attitude Adjustment, Martha Splatterhead’s Revenge
Holy shit. Thanks for that news. I just updated the calendar. Also added that Lamb of God/In Flames show on Dec 16.
March 31st, Metal Alliance 3 at Showbox SoDo. Anthrax, Exodus, Municipal Waste, Holy Grail, plus more TBA.
Dayum! I just added that to our calendar (thanks Dan).
Feb 13, 2013: Graveyard with The Shrine @ Neumos
Great site!
Just added that — thank you!
March 29, 2013: Clutch,
Orange Goblin, Lionize, and KYNG
at Showbox at The Market
Thanks man — I just added that to the calendar.
Friday March 8th
Krystos, Last Bastion, Lb! (Pound)
at 2 Bit Saloon
Mayhem Festival is happening July 3rd. There are some pretty good bands on the list, like Behemoth, Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth, Machine Head, and Mastodon. And some…not so exciting bands as well.
Man, thanks for that tip. I’ve been hunkered down in a cave the last 2 weeks and missed that announcement. That’s a really mixed lineup, but the awesome part of it is pretty fuckin awesome. I just added it to this page.
There’s definitely a variety. I’m curious to see how all the different stages work, timing-wise and such.
June 19 – Studio Seven: Melechesh, Vreid, Lightning Swords Of Death, Reign Of Lies.
Why must this be on a Wednesday?
That is one badass line-up. I’ve added it to the calendar (thanks for the tip).
Looks like Warbringer’s playing that Overkill/Kreator show as well.
Thanks for that tip. I just added them. That’s going to be quite a show,
