Here’s the stage times for Masters Of The Riff festival this weekend

This weekend, London's Masters Of The Riff festival returns to Oslo in Hackney for three nights of riffs, big grooves, fuzz, heaviness and volume from the underground.

As well as headliners Viking Skull (Friday), Domkraft (Saturday) and Electric Citizen (Sunday), the weekend will see turns from Calligram, Witchsorrow, Morag Tong, King Witch, Sigiriya and more. And for those very keep to get the party started early, Old Horn Tooth and Troy The Band will be hitting nearby Helgi's for a pre-party on Thursday night.

“We do this because we love the scene that we're all in,” says Ollie Isaac of organisers London Doom Collective, and also of Old Horn Tooth. “It’s a lot of work and stress to make things happen – none of us would be in this if we didn't like doing it!

“We just want the scene to work, for everyone to have a big community, and for bands to have a great time playing a show. We’re just the middle people that go, ‘Let's put these gigs on with these bands at this place.’”
