On the penultimate night of their 28-date tour, Paleface Swiss brought their explosive energy to a sold-out SWX Bristol, riding the crest of a wave fueled by their latest album, Cursed. Supported by the relentless force of The Acacia Strain and the hardcore fury of Desolated, the night was a masterclass in raw, unbridled intensity.

Relive the chaos through the eyes of our photographer George Read’s gallery below—this was a night where Bristol truly melted.
