About This Event

On 15 October 2026 at The Rat & Pigeon in Manchester, Dublin-based trio Bucket will deliver a punishing live show defined by their aim to test the limits of volume and intensity. Breeding DIY ethics from garage and punk rock roots, the band soon embraced noise rock, hardcore, and industrial elements to forge a uniquely abrasive sound. Their reputation as one of Ireland's loudest bands is built on sweaty performances that seek to deliver maximum impact within an intimate setting.

Dublin-based 3 piece Bucket seemingly appeared from nowhere with a tape-exclusive debut album in the latter half 2021; breeding the DIY ethics of garage and punk rock, soon endowing a reputation for their sweaty live shows. The band's debut headline saw them sell out The Workman’s Club, soon playing an array of wall-to-wall DIY shows across Ireland.

Soon embracing elements of noise rock, hardcore and industrial to forge a unique and shockingly abrasive sound - Bucket are often referred to as the loudest band in Ireland, a reputation earned by the band’s aim to test the limits of volume and intensity, delivering a punishing live show.

Most recently, the band released the sophomore EP 'Mosaic' alongside performances supporting Knocked Loose, & at festivals across Europe and the U.S., including ESNS (NL), New Colossus (NYC, USA), Supersonic Block Party (Paris, FR), and Primavera Pro (Barcelona, ES).

“(Bucket) should come with a warning label.” - Nathan Shepard, BBC 6Music

“The loudest band I’ve seen in 40 years of gig-going. You’ll be hearing more from them, like it or not.” - Paul Brannigan, Louder / Metal Hammer

“Thundering and bleak – teeth-grinding bass distortion and relentless power… among the most pummelling and progressive noise-rock acts right now.” - AL Noonan, DIY Magazine

Bucket play thier debut Manchester headline show at The Rat & Pigeon, this October.
