Bristol-based post-punk band
Knives is a Bristol-based post-punk band that has swiftly carved out a reputation for their uncompromising sound and dynamic live music presence. Since forming in late 2021, Knives have delivered a catalogue defined by a gritty, sharp-edged sensibility, with releases such as the incisive EPs "What We See in Their Eyes" (2024) and "Newshounds" (2023). Their upcoming debut album "GLITTER," slated for release in May 2025, is highly anticipated within the alternative scene and promises further experimentation with the intense energy that defines their recordings, including singles like "EAT THY NEIGHBOUR" and "I HOPE YOU GET IT."
Knives have brought their visceral post-punk vision to some of the UK's staple venues, recently supporting Cancer Bats on a series of key dates. Their performances at Chalk in Brighton and The Joiners in Southampton in October 2026, as well as sharing the stage with Battlesnake at Downstairs at The Dome in London, have only added to their growing renown as a formidable live act. Each concert cements their reputation among discerning fans who seek acts that push the boundaries of the genre while remaining compellingly raw and immediate.
With more gigs lined up alongside Cancer Bats and Ignite at venues such as Electric Brixton, Asylum in Birmingham, and Gorilla in Manchester, Knives are set to further ignite stages across the country.
