Guilt Trip

On 14 October 2026 at XOYO Birmingham, Guilt Trip headline their biggest Birmingham show to date. The UK metallic hardcore quartet push a sound built on sharp, thrash-tinged riffs, heavy grooves and no-frills hooks. Their tracks swing from sprinting tempos to concrete breakdowns, with a barked vocal delivery and a gritty, street-level tone. On stage, they favour tight playing, dense guitars and a pace that rarely lets up, tailed by rhythms made for the pit.

They’re joined by Judiciary, bringing a hard-edged crossover take that leans on thick riffing and lockstep drums; Justice For The Damned, channelling a darker, death-leaning strain of metalcore; and Longgoodbye, adding a raw, modern hardcore angle. The bill lines up different shades of heavy, from d-beat gallops to slow, crushing parts, all circling the same impact point: low tunings, big riffs and movement in the room. With Guilt Trip at the centre, this Birmingham date takes a straight path through metallic hardcore’s current pulse.
