Heavy metal band Anvil play The Welly with guests Killer on their 'Pounding the Past' tour, presented by Screaming Tarts.
Anvil play The Welly on Tuesday 17 November, as part of their Pounding the Past tour. They're supported by Killer, and the night is presented by Screaming Tarts. It runs from 7:30 pm to 11:00 pm at 105-107 Beverley Rd, Hull HU3 1TS.
If you've never come across them, Anvil are a heavy metal band from Toronto, Canada, led by Steve 'Lips' Kudlow and Robb Reiner, with Chris Robertson on bass. They've been around a long time, and their history was documented in the film Anvil! The Story of Anvil. Heavy metal historians rank them among the genre's most influential, with a lasting impact on internationally renowned musicians like Metallica and Slayer.
This tour is a bit of a throwback. Pounding the Past runs from October through December 2026, and the set is built around their first three records, so you'll hear the songs they started with rather than their more recent work. That said, they're still recording: they put their 21st studio album down in Germany this September, so they're touring the early stuff while the new record is still fresh in the studio.
