Amyl and The Sniffers have already had a monster year, destroying the main stages of European summer festivals, supporting Foo Fighters on their recent US stadium run, and selling out their own headline tours in the US, UK and Europe, including three consecutive nights at the 3,000-capacity Roundhouse in London. They are the main support for Fontaines DC's 45,000 capacity Finsbury Park show in July 2025 (already sold out) and have just announced their biggest headline ever at London's Alexandra Palace.
Following the release of singles U Should Not Be Doing That, Chewing Gum, Big Dreams and the joyful FU that is Jerkin', Amyl and The Sniffers are entering a new era with their third album, Cartoon Darkness. Already hailed as "album of the year" (Clash) and "a level-up in every way" (Brooklyn Vegan), Cartoon Darkness sees the Sniffers grow in brilliant, bold directions -- still delivering hard and fast thrills, but expanding the heart, the danceable hooks, and the humor, channeling Amy Taylor's singular worldview into the Sniffers' most mature and exciting album to date.

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. I have nothing but respect for this band!
Great energy, great message, great songs. Bloody great people. Great bloody band!!! Who cares truly about there family/fans!
Amazing show- this band is even better live. So much energy! So glad to have seen them.
Amyl and the sniffers were awesome! They were hi energy, great with the crowd. Sounded fabulous, just like there albums maybe better. I highly recommend seeing Amyl and the sniffers! Amy looked great. Can’t wait to see them again!
Killer performance, Amy went buck wild Guitarist signed my set list.
The venue was great, the backup artists especially the two Bob's from England!! Amyl was great! Her lead guitarist was exceptional, definitely too loud though!!
Definitely glad I saw them. One of the best live acts currently!
Of course the venue looked great and was clean, not sticky on the floors like other venues that serve drinks are. When a guy was too aggressive in the pit he got kicked out and I was so great full for that. Only wished they handed out more water, but I did see it get handed out. Over all very fun and I felt safe if I needed help
Drove 2 hrs to see the show and glad I did. They did not disappoint. Lost my hearing for two days, but wouldn’t have it any other way 😌🤘
I know it is punk and there will always be political comments but I personally did not appreciate the attacks on the late Queen Elizabeth.
Whatever the band lacked in precision was more than made up for with exuberance and intensity. If you like a band that plays and sings so fast that you cannot tell what they are playing or singing, you will live Amyl And the Sniffers. I know I loved it.
I even left my phone in the bathroom and someone found it and I got it back! Crowd wasn’t too rambunctious and aggressive either. Can’t wait to see her again!
The whole show was amazing!!!! The venue was cool but I highly recommend watching amyl and the sniffers
Welcome to a new punk era. High positive energy! One of the best shows I've seen this year.
Punk music is alive and well. I had a blast. Its one of those shows that your going to hear & read about 20 years from now
Be prepared to have a wild raucous time with AATS!
