Recorded live on 5th December 2025, the release forms part of the band’s ambitious Organic Metal: Two Worlds Collide project with internationally renowned pipe organist David Pipe, exploring the creative possibilities that emerge when contemporary alternative metal is combined with the immense acoustic power and resonance of a historic pipe organ.
The band comment: “We’re incredibly excited to finally share Live at Huddersfield Town Hall. This was a truly special night for Plague of Angels, bringing together the raw power of metal with the extraordinary majesty of the venue’s historic pipe organ. The scale, atmosphere and emotion of this performance encapsulate everything we’ve been striving to achieve with our Organic Metal: Two Worlds Collide project. An enormous amount of passion and dedication has gone into capturing, mixing and producing this concert, and we couldn’t be prouder of the result. We can’t wait for audiences around the world to experience what was, for us, an unforgettable evening.”
Live at Huddersfield Town Hall captures Plague of Angels at their most ambitious and immersive, bringing together dark alternative metal, progressive songwriting, orchestration, pipe organ, piano in powerful live performance.
Throughout the concert, the pipe organ becomes an integral part of the musical architecture rather than simply an accompaniment, adding immense depth, resonance and physical presence to the band’s sound. The result is a distinctive fusion of contemporary metal and one of the UK’s most historic musical traditions.
Plague of Angels first turned heads in 2024 with their debut single, ‘What Lies Beneath‘, and becoming the first metal band ever to perform on BBC’s The One Show. Their breathtaking live performance inside a church, complete with pipe organ accompaniment, earned critical acclaim from The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph, whilst solidifying their reputation as pioneers of “organic metal,” blending classical grandeur with contemporary heaviness.
Their follow-up singles ‘Beyond Salvation’ and ‘Lazarene‘ deepened that vision, showcasing a remarkable range of musical and emotional dynamics.
The band made history once again with a sold-out performance at York Minster, one of the UK’s most iconic cathedrals. The monumental show saw their sound rise through the vast gothic arches of the Minster, merging the sacred and the extreme in a spellbinding display of light, sound and emotion. The event drew widespread national media attention, with coverage across BBC Look North, ITV News and BBC Radio 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6, underscoring Plague of Angels’ reputation as one of the most ambitious and visionary forces in contemporary metal.
The concept of Organic Metal was born from guitarist Mark Mynett’s collaboration with Leeds Cathedral organist David Pipe, an experiment that bridged the sacred and the extreme. The project’s success, covered by local, national and international media, laid the foundations for Plague of Angels, a band devoted to exploring beauty, darkness and transcendence in sound.
