Final Coil | Live Booking:

Final Coil’s Persistence Of Memory was one of the most remarkable albums of 2017. Beneath its evocative cover artwork was a collection of songs that harboured strength, power, depth and emotion; each one exquisitely crafted and performed with stunning skill and fierce passion. Persistence Of Memory is a thing of rare and lasting beauty in this world of trends and transience. As a live band, Final Coil are able to bring all that breathtaking magic to the stage and infuse it with an additional fire and immediacy. Whilst their music can be both reflective and progressive, it can also possess a drive and intensity that has allowed the band to successfully share the stage with some of the UK’s heaviest underground propositions. They have stunned crowds as part of the MOSH AGAINST CANCER festival, on a bill that featured the thrash legends VIRUS and the grind gods BASEMENT TORTURE KILLINGS, captivated a capacity audience at HRH METAL III alongside DECAPITATED, DEVILMENT and RAGING SPEEDHORN and also performed a special acoustic set at the inaugural UPRISING festival, which was headlined by MOTÖRHEAD man PHIL CAMPBELL, along with CONAN, HELL and ACID REIGN. With the release of their wonderful second album, The World We Left Behind For Others, Final Coil appeared at the FUSION FESTIVAL 2019 where they shared the stage with prog luminaries like FOCUS, IO EARTH and ENGLAND.

Final Coil have also made their way through to the final of the intensely competitive METAL 2 THE MASSES competition and are stalwarts of the UK scene, playing shows with everyone from FURY to DAKESIS to OHHMS, BOSS KELOID and STAGHORN. As the word has spread of the intensity and captivating energy of their live shows, Final Coil have found themselves on ever more diverse and prestigious bills. They stunned the crowd at the Camden Underworld where they appeared with PABST and Japanese legends SHONEN KNIFE, the all-girl punk band who inspired NIRVANA. That particular performance then lead directly to Final Coil being personally invited to provide sole support to MARKY RAMONE’S BLITZKRIEG at The Garage in Islington, London.

As with all bands, Final Coil were hit by the Covid-19 pandemic and the ensuing lockdown measures, which put an end to all live activity for a while – but they emerged onto the scene once more as the restrictions lifted, battle-scarred but more determined than ever. They joined acclaimed prog metallers OPENSIGHT as special guests before hitting the road as part of the BARELY ALIVE TOUR, alongside DIE EGO, YGODEH and THE MEDEA PROJECT. Then they rounded off 2022 by joining SOLSTICE, HAZE, WARMRAIN and others at DANFEST 11. The early part of 2023 was focussed almost entirely on the writing and recording of their third album, as well as securing a new label for its release - although a show with DIE EGO and RUNNING WITH KNIVES proved too tempting to turn down! In August of 2023 Final Coil signed with international label Sliptrick Records and announced a January 16th release date for new album The World We Inherited, along with two special launch shows – headline dates in London and the band’s hometown of Leicester. More headline dates followed in early 2024 before the biggest show of the band’s career to date in August: Final Coil were invited to play at the BLOODSTOCK FESTIVAL alongside huge names like OPETH, CARCASS and AMON AMARTH. They seized the opportunity and delivered an exceptional set on the prestigious New Blood Stage. With 2024 drawing to a close Final Coil are set for another ‘first’ as they prepare for their first shows in Europe. In December they will be playing a trio of shows in France and Belgium, rounding off an exceptional year. And in 2025 things are only going to get bigger and better for this incredible band.

Wherever they go, whomever they play with, be it at a festival or in a club, Final Coil will always impress. They play every show as if it were their last and no-one who witnesses one of their passionate performances remains unmoved.
