IST IST LIVE in Newcastle | Thursday 16th April 2026

IST IST hit the road in spring 2025 for their biggest UK tour to date, with stops in Norwich, Newcastle, Oxford, Bristol, and a huge hometown show at Manchester’s Albert Hall. Joined by rising newcomers The Youth Play, it’s set to be their most expansive run yet.

The tour follows the release of their fifth album DAGGER, out Feb 6, 2025, a powerful evolution of their brooding, synth-driven post-punk sound. Self-funded and released via their own Kind Violence Records, DAGGER is packed with live-built anthems like “Warning Signs” and “The Echo.”

Five albums deep, IST IST continue to grow. Louder, darker, and more defiant than ever.
