about

Earth, one of the most seismic and influential bands in contemporary music, are set to return to Belfast after more than a decade. Hosted by Strange Victory Presents and The Thin Air, this event marks the band’s first Belfast show since 2011. Led by drone pioneer and genre-redefining visionary Dylan Carlson, Earth has shaped some of the most defining releases of the past 30 years. Albums like Earth 2, Hex; Or Printing in the Infernal Method, and their latest, Full Upon Her Burning Lips, showcase Carlson’s evolving sonic vision alongside long-time drummer Adrienne Davies.

Taking place on Thursday, 22nd May 2025, this is a rare opportunity to witness a band whose legacy is both monumental and untouchable. Tickets go on sale on Thursday, 19th December, at 10am.

Over the course of their three-decade career, Earth has remained committed to their minimalist ethos, evolving their sound while maintaining a sense of restraint and purpose. Albums like Hex and Primitive and Deadly reflect their ability to combine meditative intensity with a cinematic edge. With Full Upon Her Burning Lips, Carlson and Davies strip back auxiliary elements, tapping into the essence of Earth’s sound as a duo. Featuring tracks like ‘Datura’s Crimson Veils’ and ‘Cats on the Briar,’ the album captures their dedication to sparse, elemental compositions that unfold new dimensions with each listen.

Don’t miss this rare performance by one of contemporary music’s most enduring and innovative acts.
