Karnivool & Intervals at the Roundhouse, London

“Filling my lungs, ready to run, for miles and miles and miles…“

Intervals opened the Roundhouse with a masterclass in modern instrumental progressive metal, effortlessly shutting down the cliché that tech-heavy music lacks melody. Their performance beautifully balanced intricate, offering galaxy-brain rhythm work and soaring melodic hooks, proving exactly why they remain a refreshing force in the djent-adjacent landscape. On the final date of a grueling five-week tour, Aussie titans Karnivool delivered a spectacular set where every single track felt like a monumental event. Witnessing their effortless chemistry live is a joy, anchored by the band’s dense, rhythmic grooves and Ian Kenny‘s flawless, commanding vocals that united the room and created a staggeringly friendly mosh pit.
