Underdark
Underdark are a British black metal band from Nottingham, England, formed in 2015 by guitarists Ollie Jones and Adam Kinson and drummer Dan Hallam. The band's current lineup consists of Jones, Kinson, bassist Stephen "Stig" Waterfield, vocalist Abi Vasquez and drummer Dan Blackmore. The band's sound has been categorized under the "post-black metal" label. The band's anti-fascist beliefs, which they have held since their inception, have led to them being associated with the "anti-fascist black metal" and Red and Anarchist Black Metal (RABM) movements, although they do not consider themselves to be a "political band".
Underdark released their debut EP, Mourning Cloak (2016), with original vocalist Max Speelman. Speelman quit the band was replaced by Vasquez shortly after the recording of its debut album, Our Bodies Burned Bright on Re-Entry, in 2019; the album was not released until 2021 due to delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Their second album and first with Blackmore, Managed Decline, was released through Church Road Records on 24 November 2023.
