Carlswerk Victoria, Cologne, Germany23rd January 2026
Lionheart - “European Tour 2026” - Special Guests: Madball, Gideon, Slope
Originally, LIONHEART planned their tour for November, but they had to reschedule to January 2026. All bought tickets are also valid for the new dates. The kings of Hardcore from the Bay Area in California first stormed the scene in 2007 with their debut album ‘The Will To Survive’.
Influenced by bands like BLOOD FOR BLOOD, HATEBREED, and MADBALL, LIONHEART launched straight into a brutal storm of killer Hardcore. Shortly thereafter, in 2010, ‘Built On Struggle’ followed, and in 2012 they followed up with ‘Undisputed’ and years of consistent touring. After a short hiatus following the release of ‘Undisputed’, the band returned stronger than ever in 2014 with ‘Welcome To The Westcoast’. The album entered at #1 on both the iTunes Metal and the GooglePlay Metal Charts.
LIONHEART conquered the scene again in January 2016 with “Love Don’t Live here”. The album title, which is an allusion to the R&B / Motown classic of the same name, shows the band’s reluctance to be put into the same old “hardcore box,” as do the bitter and harsh lyrics for which the band is known.
In November 2017, LIONHEART then released ‘Welcome To The Westcoast II’. As a sequel to ‘Welcome To The Westcoast’ (2014), the album ushered in a new era of Californian Hardcore and once again earned the band #1 on the iTunes Metal Charts and Google Play Metal Charts. In 2019, after two years of relentless worldwide touring, LIONHEART returned with their heaviest album to date: ‘Valley Of Death’. With a mix of metallic Hardcore and hard West Coast groove, frontman Rob Watson offers an insight into a life full of torment, violence, and an unyielding will not to give up.
