Sonic Temple’s Second Wave Brings The Metalcore Takeover

Share

The gates of Sonic Temple 2026 just got heavier. After dropping a first wave led by deathcore giants like Lorna Shore, the festival has doubled down with a second line-up that screams breakdowns and busted vocal cords. Added to the mix are Electric Callboy, We Came As Romans, The Plot In You, Make Them Suffer, Bloodywood, and Conquer Divide, a six pack of acts primed to make Historic Crew Stadium shake.

This is the kind of wave that feels tailor made for the pit. We Came As Romans bring a catalogue of sing to the rafters hooks, The Plot In You carry that darker, emotional core energy, and Make Them Suffer are flying the flag for Australian heaviness on American soil. Electric Callboy are a must see live, blending club beats with snarling guitars, while Bloodywood channel metal through India’s underground firepower. Then there’s Conquer Divide, razor sharp riffs, harmonies that cut deep, and the perfect reminder that metalcore doesn’t need to be a boys’ club to hit hard.

Five Stages

The 2026 edition is already shaping up bigger than ever, the fest has expanded to five stages, which means more than 30 additional acts and the kind of scheduling headache every fan tries to stay on top of. You may miss one band while losing your mind in another pit, but that’s a part of it right? Sonic Temple wants you sprinting across the stadium, heart racing, ears ringing.
