With January 2025 marking a decade since their live debut, IST IST have forged a formidable reputation on word of mouth excitement, a fierce northern DIY work ethic and an ever-growing back catalogue of successful studio and live releases, all self-released through their own Kind Violence Records label. Fourth record 'Light A Bigger Fire' reached 25th in the UK Album Charts in September 2024 and the band played to over 8,000 people across thirteen countries in iconic venues such as the Paradiso in Amsterdam and New Century Hall in Manchester on the album tour. IST IST are now ready to continue with their relentless touring exploits and hit the road again in 2025 to take their uncompromisingly intense live show to places both new and familiar. Championed by BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6Music, Radio X, XS Manchester, KINK FM in the Netherlands, The Times and more, IST IST are expected to light even bigger fires everywhere they go throughout 2025.
