Eureka Machines – September Tour 
Can you believe it’s been 3 years since Eureka Machines last played Newcastle? I know. That’s ages.
But… good news everyone, they’re coming back!
This is a strictly limited run of dates, so we’re thrilled they’re coming to Cluny 2 on September 14th.
Couple of things to help make this show special…
First off, they’ve a new album out – ‘Victories’ and it’s canny good and that. You should check it out. I’ve stuck a video from it on the bottom of this post.
Seraph Sin join Psydoll show 
Glasgow Industrial-Metal favourite Seraph Sin make an overdue return to the region this month.
The quartet have been well received on previous visits, having played first with Hanzel Und Gretyl and later with Mortiis – and now we look forward to their show with Psydoll.
They will be very special guests at the show on March 31st at Central Bar in Gateshead. Local act You Are The Dead are also performing.
Wrestling fans may also be familiar with them. They’ve written 3 pieces of entrance music for performers of Insane Championship Wrestling, as well as the intro music for the weekly show!
Lord of the Lost – Headline Tour 
A mixture of personal and professional comments regarding a tour we’re thrilled to announce.
Lord of the Lost are one of my personal favourite bands. Over the past 8 years I’ve watched them rise up in Germany. From playing festivals in the 11am slot for 20 minutes to performing with a full Orchestra.
Now, they look set to repeat this in the UK.
Whilst they did do some small dates in 2010, they didn’t return to the UK until 2017. 2017 saw them impress many crowds on tour with KMFDM. Now, in 2018, they’re about to embark on a UK headline tour.
New Show : Psydoll Return 
We are pleased to announce that Psydoll will be making and overdue return to the region.
It was 2006 that the band last came to the North-East, for a show that was very well received.
Now, they return as part of their 2018 Magnetic Storm Tour.
The show will take place in The Central, in Gateshead. Located on Half Moon Lane. Very close to both Gateshead Interchange and Newcastle Central Station.
Psydoll are a Japanese band, a must for fans of J-Rock, Electropunk and things that little bit different.
New Jizzy Pearl album – All you need is Soul 
The unmistakable voice from one of the most loved hard rock bands of the early 1990s is returning this spring. Jizzy Pearl of LOVE/HATE is back with his new solo album, “All You Need Is Soul”. This highly anticipated studio release will be made available May 11 via Frontiers Music Srl.
“In my opinion, this is the best record I’ve done since ‘Blackout In The Red Room’,” says Jizzy. “It captures all the energy and power of that album with great songs, high-energy vocals, big drums courtesy of Dave Moreno (PUDDLE OF MUDD) and amazing guitars from LOVE/HATE guitarist Darren Housholder.”
Femme-Punk Trio IDestroy join The Men… tour 
We’re pleased to announce and amazing addition to the forthcoming tour with The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing.
IDestroy have built up a local following in their own right – and now embarking on a major tour with The Men…
Locally, that visits Trillians on March 13th
Some nice things people have said about them include :
“The band are fronted by singer/guitarist Bec Jevons, who manages to combine her hard mod-punk look style with a presence that seems to channel equal parts Shirley Manson and Joan Jett.” – Fred Perry Subculture

Newcastle M2TM Returns for 2018! 
Here we go again… Bloodstock M2TM 2018.
Yet again we are grateful to have Newcastle representation and a certainty that one local band will go to play Bloodstock in 2018.
It may seem a cliche but, Judas Priest, Nightwish, Gojira, Your Band, etc. it could be true.
In recent years we’ve managed to send The Souls of Jack Ketch, Decrepid Monolith, Trendkill and Dirty King – who will we send next year?!
At this point things couldn’t be simpler. Read on to check you meet criteria and drop us a mail, kev@rftkpromotions.co.uk – we’ll get packs out later this week or early next which basically repeats the info here and any fine tuning.
Electric Liberation Tour – Line-Up Change Some news! It’s been a pretty crazy few weeks in the run up to the Electronic Liberation Tour 2017, and we’ve been fraught with problems behind the scenes, so here’s an update.
Unfortunately, Syd.31 won’t be able to join us on this tour for personal reasons. We’re gutted too, and hope they can play for you soon.
The good news though, is that the rest of the team have rallied round, and we’ve roped in some friends as very special guests for the remaining dates on the tour. Twist Helix will be joining us in Newcastle. Check ’em out below
