Black Spiders - Sons of The North 15th Anniversary

About

Since 2008 Black Spiders have continued to make a loud and compelling case for heavy guitar music, from the sin city streets, revelling in the glories of the genre, its sacred lore, with a top-shelf collection of riffs, a sly dash of humour, plus an iconic logo that sits alongside the best.

This cocktail of heavy music, with a punk attitude, is something fans have come to savour. Now five studio albums in (the latest release in 2025 - Cvrses via their own DIY label Dark Riders and Cargo Distribution) and another Especiale to come via Record Store Day 2025.

In support of their studio albums (most hit a spot in the top ten, on the UK Independent Albums charts, everytime ), plus a fistful of EPs, Black Spiders have toured all over Europe with a variety of rock's most riff hungry sons, the likes of Volbeat, Danzig, Airbourne, Ozzy, Black Stone Cherry and Monster Magnet, and appeared at all of the UK's leading festivals, including Download, Sonisphere and Bloodstock and many of the smaller independent festivals too

Noted for their unswerving dedication to the music, the middle finger (or two) and the rousing rock n roll slogan (EAT THUNDER, SHIT LIGHTNING!), the Spiders are the perfect low-slung machine to raise a glass or clench a tattooed fist to even while hoovering the kids bedroom.

We were on such a high after the last release, the song-writing was like a puking juggernaut, constantly flowing from deep within. What's a band to do Record more songs and keep on keeping on, is the right answer And that's what we do. Each and every time

2026 sees Black Spiders tour their debut album Sons of the North. It was released 7 February 2011 after two years of touring by the band.
