1. Please introduce yourself for anyone who may not know you. Tell us a little bit more about you as a band.
Hailing from across South Wales, Convoy is a Post-Metalcore/Hardcore Collective that has surfaced very recently. Our sound is a calculated collision; it’s a soundscape that moves from ethereal choral sections to the visceral shock of cut-throat guitars and synth-trap verses, reflecting the fractured reality of modern times. Every performance is a designed experience, curated to fully immerse you in all that we have produced.
2. What made you want to participate in the Metal To The Masses South Wales 2026 campaign? Have you had previous experience? Or is this your first time?
Although we have only recently launched, hearing about Metal to the Masses via the local scene pushed us to put in an application. It’s a privilege to be included on this year’s roster and we are here to bring our absolute best. This is our opportunity to finally share what has been produced in secret for multiple years!
3. M2TM is all about supporting your local scene. How important is the local scene to you as a band?
As a band, we have huge respect for the local scene. Members of our band actively contribute to and support local venues. An example of this is our singer, Cal, who provided support in completely re-patching and rebuilding the Green Rooms’ lighting rig, going further to provide lighting support at various shows there!
4. We have a slightly different set up this year with Heats/Quarters/Semis taking place at Green Rooms. Have you played the venue before or is this your first time? Are you excited to get on those stages?
Having exposure to the Green Rooms via previous bands and a launch gig for our current setlist, it’s quite exciting to move from behind the lights to behind the microphone, exposing our sound to a much wider audience. The new lighting rig and the sound of the room are incredible. Whether it’s M2TM or a Saturday show, the work that has gone in to provide bands with the “large stage” experience is fantastic. To reflect with the investment into our new set, it’s going to be exciting to share this with the wider world!
5. What are your expectations from being a part of M2TM?
A major part of joining Metal to the Masses is experience. Having the opportunity to share what has been a major part of our lives with a wider audience is fantastic. M2TM serves as an opportunity to grow our fanbase; since we have so recently launched, this is a key detail for us. Personally, M2TM acts as the opportunity to test our skillset not just from a performance perspective; we want to prove that we can deliver a high-quality show, handle promotion, and nail our changeovers on a tight schedule.
6. What would getting to our Day Of Wreckoning final and the possibility of playing Bloodstock Festival 2026 mean to you?
Absolutely the world. If the crowd believes we are at a point deserving of playing Day of Wreckoning and Bloodstock Festival, it would exceed all our expectations. It would validate the work we have put into the music and show us the possibilities of pure commitment to the art we produce.
7. We encourage all the bands in M2TM to try and check out the other bands, who are you most looking forward to? Who should your fans also try to catch?
We played with Avicide previously, that is a set that we won’t be missing! On the opposite end of the framework, I(Cal) aim to catch every set that hits the Green Rooms. The venue has a special place in my heart and I want to see every band that is performing for M2TM. Some would say it’s to suss out the competition; I’d say that I just have a soft spot for the local music scene!
8. Tell us in five words why people should come and see your band.
“A visceral, calculated, immersive collision.”
