York Minster to host Plague of Angels metal gig to showcase organ

A heavy metal concert at York Minster will help the sacred site fulfil its mission and “inspire everyone”, the Dean of York said.

Symphonic metal group Plague of Angels is set to combine with church organist David Pipe for the event in April titled Organic Metal – Two Worlds Collide.

The Minster said the concert would showcase the cathedral’s restored Grand Organ, with 800 tickets “sold within an hour of going on sale”.

Two people have objected to the concert taking place, the Minster confirmed, however the Very Rev Dominic Barrington said the band understood the “sacrality of the space they are performing in”.
