Electric Wizard

Electric Wizard stands as one of the United Kingdom’s most influential names in doom metal. Formed in 1993 in Dorset, the band has carved out a formidable reputation with their distinctive blend of doom and drone, delivering soundscapes that are as heavy as they are hypnotic. Their status within the stoner and doom metal community is further cemented by a dedicated following and a legacy of genre-defining releases.

Drawing on a darkly psychedelic palette, Electric Wizard continue to push boundaries, as evidenced by their forthcoming live album, Black Magic Rituals & Perversions: Vol. 1, slated for release in December 2024. Their discography is a testament to their enduring creativity, highlighted by critically regarded albums such as Wizard Bloody Wizard and live favourites like Live Maryland Deathfest 2012. The band's relentless riff-driven approach has made them a cornerstone for fans of subterranean, esoteric metal sounds.

For those eager to experience Electric Wizard’s uncompromising live music, the band headlines revered UK venues including Albert Hall in Manchester and Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow in September 2026. With a reputation for immersive, thunderous performances, these gigs are unmissable for devotees of heavy music.
