Employed to Serve + Cage Fight

About this event

---

Heavy metal is more then just music. For some, it is a fully fledged lifestyle, woven into their DNA. this is something Employed To Serve embodies. After rising from road warrior martyrs paying their dues to staking thier claim as arena-ready contenders following a huge tour with Gojira, they're here to take pride of place on the heavy metal world stage with their new album ' Fallen Star'. Vocalist Justine Jones ad guitarist / co-vocalist Sammy Urwin first met in their teens, starting the band with the intention of standing shoulder to shoulder with the local scene bands they admired. Now, after evolving from the feral mathcore chaos of their early EPs to detonating a full-throttle career high with 2021 album 'Conquering', they're clearly lifers; make that lifers with a mission... "We want to fly the flag for heavy metal and the traditions that is holds", offers Sammy, acknowledging his life-long love of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Metallica, iconic artists he now finds more inspiring then ever. "But at the same time we want to play our part in taking things forward".  In the journey ahead, Employed to Serve will play every gig as if it's their last. You wont want to take your eyes off Justine as she prowls the stage, or Sammy as he peels off evil riffs with a cheek-to-cheek grin, leaving the rest of the band to bring a ferocity that can flatten a town.  Employed to serve have come, have seen, have conquered and now regin supreme as one of Britains shining lights, hell bent on forging their legacy of Heavy Metal Unity. Long may it continue.
