Green Lung headline Desertfest London after unleashing Evil In This House

Green Lung headline the main stage at Desertfest London on 16 May, stepping onto the Roundhouse stage after releasing the new single Evil In This House. The track is a return to the South London band’s heavier, riff-driven roots, leaning into haunted-house atmosphere, Sabbathian weight and the occult storytelling that has always shaped their identity. It also previews their fourth album Necropolitan, due 11 September via Nuclear Blast.

The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales, a space with deep heavy-music history, and is being framed as a rawer, more live-recorded celebration of London’s occult lore and heavy music scene. For an indie and alternative digest, Green Lung sit at the heavier edge, but they absolutely belong. Their rise has been built through underground scenes, strong visual identity, folklore obsession and a sound that turns stoner doom into something theatrical and strangely British. The Desertfest headline slot is also their first-ever festival headline performance, giving 16 May a clear milestone moment. This is not just a single release or a tour date; it is a band moving from cult status toward true scene leadership.
