In 2025, we bring you a band that has been shaping the industrial metal scene for over two decades: DOPE! Since their formation in New York City in 1997, the band led by frontman Edsel Dope has made an unforgettable name for themselves. Their mix of industrial metal, nu metal, alternative metal, and a touch of punk and hardcore is what makes DOPE so unique. Dark and provocative lyrics, striking guitar riffs, and powerful electronic beats make their live shows an absolute experience.

If you know their brutal hits like “Die MF Die” and “Debonaire,” you’ll have an idea of what a heavy show you’re in for. But DOPE can do even more – their cover versions of “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” and “Rebel Yell” are legendary and heavier than the originals. This band knows how to reinvent classics and infuse them with a dark, raw energy that goes straight to the core. This is definitely going to be wild!

Get ready for a full load of industrial metal! DOPE is ready. Are you ready too?
