Beginning as a solo show at the Edinburgh Fringe, ‘Andrew O'Neill's History Of Heavy Metal’ toured for four years, adding a death metal backing band - Reprisal - and taking in Bloodstock, Download, Leeds and Reading, as well as clubs and theatres up and down the country. The show spawned a best-selling book and eventually was filmed with the aid of a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign.

On Saturday February 22nd we will be screening that film.

After the movie join Andrew O’Neill in conversation with fellow metalhead Jason Atomic (Satanic Mojo Comix) 

Andrew’s book A History Of Heavy Metal & other merch will be available.
