NateWantsToBattle « Phantom Burial Tour »

NateWantsToBattle brings the Phantom Burial Tour to O2 Academy Islington in London on 7 October 2026. Behind the alias, Nathan Sharp is a Korean-American singer, songwriter and voice actor who emerged online in the early 2010s with a pop punk and alternative rock sound shaped by video games and anime. Starting with covers and franchise-inspired tracks, he has moved toward original material while keeping direct guitars, melodic hooks and an emo-pop streak, with a clear taste for storytelling.

On stage, he moves between internet-born tracks and his studio work: Sands of Time (2017), Paid in Exposure (2018) and To Let Go (2020). The project also intersects with official works around Dragon Ball Super, Sonic the Hedgehog and Pokémon, feeding a setlist that links gaming culture with a contemporary rock band feel. The Phantom Burial Tour lines up this trajectory in concert form: narrative-driven songs, guitar-led energy and choruses built to stay in mind, at the crossroads of pop punk, alt rock and a world of pixels and animation.
