Overview

LORDS OF NWOBHM – WORLD’S FIRST LIVE IN JAPAN is a thunderous, supergroup-fueled sonic odyssey by LORDS OF NWOBHM, the newly forged British metal alliance uniting core members of NWOBHM pioneers—Tino Troy (guitar, Praying Mantis), Cliff Evans (guitar, Tank), John Gallagher (bass, Raven), Karl Wilcox (drums, Diamond Head), and Carl Sentence (vocals, Persian Risk/Nazareth)—celebrating the New Wave of British Heavy Metal’s golden era (late ’70s–early ’80s) that birthed legends like Iron Maiden and Def Leppard, with over 100 million albums sold across their catalogs and anthems like “Praying Mantis”, “This Means War”, and “Helpless” fueling the genre’s enduring legacy.

This maiden Japan pilgrimage—their world’s first live outing—delivers a ~120–150 minute “metal rampage” of iconic NWOBHM deep cuts, collaborative encores, and era-spanning homages amid pyrotechnic chaos and crowd-surfing headbanging.

Double-header at HOLIDAY SHINJUKU on January 11, 2026 (Sun), 18:00 (doors 17:00) and January 12, 2026 (Mon, holiday), 18:00 (doors 17:00), it’s a “prime NWOBHM jihad” of sonic sorcery. Hailed on X as “LORDS OF NWOBHM’s Tokyo apocalypse” and “Holiday Shinjuku’s metal arcs,” this bayfm78/BURRN!/Bid and Planning/UPP-tone production revives the NWOBHM thunder with unbridled nostalgia.

Tickets ¥12,000 all standing via general release on eplus from TBA (likely November 2025) – show dates (up to 8 tickets/app; 4 apps limit). Secure via eplus—this supergroup storm is primed for swift sellouts.
