Roman Candle

Roman Candle is a Las Vegas-based group invigorating the contemporary screamo landscape with their intense, emotive sound. Since emerging in 2022, Roman Candle have steadily built a profile within the underground hardcore scene, drawing attention for their raw energy and commitment to the genre’s uncompromising aesthetics.

The band’s recent singles—including “Blasphemous Act,” “Bite Harder Than You Bleed,” and “Nothing Is Original”—showcase a meticulous approach to both lyricism and sonic aggression, affirming Roman Candle’s place among bands pushing screamo into new territories. Their forthcoming debut album, “UNADULTERATED,” slated for release in April 2026, is highly anticipated by aficionados of experimental and emotionally charged hardcore music.

Roman Candle’s live music presence will be felt across the UK in September 2026, appearing as a support act for Split Chain on the MOTIONBLUR UK TOUR, with shows in iconic venues such as The Joiners in Southampton and the Underworld in London. These gigs offer a unique opportunity to experience Roman Candle’s dynamic concerts alongside leading acts in the scene.
