Unencumbered by genre, Somergloom showcases and celebrates the richness of today’s heavy music scene, centered around music that is introspective, creatively ambitious, evoking a melancholic quality that we like to call “gloom”.Since its inception in 2021, Somergloom has grown into a multi-day event featuring a diverse range of artists from both New England and beyond. In 2025, we celebrate our fifth year at <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/DeepCuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DeepCuts</a> in <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/MedfordMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MedfordMA</a> and <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/CrystalBallroom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CrystalBallroom</a> in <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/SomervilleMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SomervilleMA</a>, with performances by <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/SUMAC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SUMAC</a>, <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/BodyVoid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BodyVoid</a>, <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/TheKeening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TheKeening</a>, <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Morne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Morne</a>, <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Chepang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chepang</a>, and many more from <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/GreaterBoston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GreaterBoston</a>, <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/NewEngland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NewEngland</a> and the <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Northeast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Northeast</a> US.” <a href="https://somergloom.com" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://somergloom.com</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/SomervilleMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SomervilleMA</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Heavy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Heavy</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Gloom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gloom</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Boston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Boston</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/BostonMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BostonMusic</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Festivals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Festivals</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/massachusetts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#massachusetts</a>

☮ ♥ ♬ 🧑‍💻“Sharon’s idea was to stage a farewell show, for charity, in Ozzy’s home town of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Birmingham" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Birmingham</a>, featuring not just a reformation of the original lineup of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/BlackSabbath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BlackSabbath</a>, but a litany of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/artists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#artists</a> they influenced. It says something about the respect the band are held in, about the sheer length of the shadow Sabbath cast over hard rock that, as <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/Ozzy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Ozzy</a> characteristically puts it, “everyone and their fucking mate started jumping on board”.The lineup for the gig is genuinely extraordinary: Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Slayer, Pantera, Alice in Chains, Anthrax, Mastodon, Tool; members of Judas Priest, Limp Bizkit, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Megadeth, Van Halen, Ghost and Faith No More. Moreover, the bill appears to be growing all the time: when I speak to Sharon, she informs me that Soundgarden and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler are the latest additions. The show’s musical director, Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave guitarist Tom Morello, says, “There’s some pretty great surprises that are not posted anywhere.” It’s hard to argue with Morello’s assessment that the gig, called Back to the Beginning, might represent “the greatest day in the history of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/HeavyMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HeavyMetal</a>”.
