Crippled Black Phoenix prepare “Sceaduhelm” European tour for 2026

Crippled Black Phoenix have announced their Sceaduhelm Tour for 2026, bringing their signature blend of atmospheric rock and theatrical performance across 16 European dates.

The band will draw from their entire catalogue, mixing new material with older songs to present what they call “endtime ballads.” Fans can expect immersive shows with cinematic arrangements, lighting, fog, and staging that reflect the austere and haunting aesthetic the group has become known for.

Formed in 2004 by multi-instrumentalist Justin Greaves, the UK collective quickly gained attention for blending post-rock, progressive, and doom into sprawling soundscapes. Over the years, they’ve built a reputation for ambitious records and intense live shows, with their 2022 album “Banefyre” standing as their most recent release.
