The Underground Stage
“Down For Tomorrow come back from the dead a couple of days earlier than is traditional this Easter, blowing up The Lansdowne on Good Friday with a glorious set full of unholy wonders. Titanic versions of ‘Good Person’, ‘Sentimental’, or ‘Survive’ remind us of just what we’ve been missing. A little miracle, a privilege to […]
“Down For Tomorrow are the critical release valve for *those* types of days, the blowing off of steam, the venting, the purge that makes you feel clean again. Crystal clear, sharp like the edge of fresh paper, and precisely as explosive as you need to blow both the cobwebs away *and* the bloody doors off. […]
“It’s Down For Tomorrow’s first standing-audience show in two years, and if there’s anyone left who doubts the importance of a crowd going full-bore ba-nay-nays on a band’s performance, let me dip you head first into this crowd and baptise you.

“For anyone paying attention, Down For Tomorrow have been building a fearsome head of steam this year and even – especially – at a DIY show like this, this set shines and shines and shines, chock full of songs that leave marks and scars on your bones. The pressure is partially released tonight – but […]
Yeah, I know – everyone’s writing a COVID number, right? This one stands out though – while it’s another absolute head-thumper and full to the brim of DFT’s signature massive song, every single ingredient here is of a band just screaming out for help. Taken from their ‘Whatever Happens’ EP the opening lyric is smart […]
A typically muscular release, Down For Tomorrow’s latest chugs and and roils in all the right places, a tumbling churning sea of guitar and song.
