Urne

Urne play Bear Cave on Monday 16 November, with doors opening at 19:00. They're touring their latest album, Setting Fire To The Sky, which came out on 30 January 2026 via Spinefarm. The Bournemouth date is presented by Divergent by arrangement with Napalm.

It's their third full-length to date. They released Serpent & Spirit in 2021, followed by A Feast on Sorrow in 2023, which was produced by Joe Duplantier of Gojira. Since then they've toured with Avatar and Kvelertak, and this run is their first outing with the new material. Setting Fire To The Sky was produced by SikTh co-vocalist Justin Hill, mixed by Johann Meyer at Silvercord Studio, and mastered by Tony Lindstrom at Fascination Street Studio.

They describe the record as a firestorm of grit, swagger and grandiosity, blending snarling hardcore, extreme inflections and a strong sense of heavy metal's inherent classicism. That's a fair amount of ground to cover in one set, and it's the kind of sound that usually works better live than on a record. They're billed as rising modern metallers, and this tour is the first time they've taken the new songs out on the road.

Urne aren't the only ones on the bill: they're joined by special guests The Grey and Moon Reaper. Tickets are £22.00 for general admission standing, which includes fees. Bear Cave is at 24-26 Holdenhurst Road, Bournemouth BH8 8AD, and they run a strict 18+ policy with ID check at the door.
