Rest will return to Róisín Dubh this Saturday, 20 October, to play a much-anticipated gig.

Rest began life in late 2001. A demo was recorded and numerous gigs around Ireland with many bands followed, while the four piece wrote the material for their debut album, Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame, released on Out On A Limb Records in 2004.

The band embarked on their first British tour in April when they supported Swedish post-metal outfit Cult of Luna. In October of 2006, a track from the bands mini-album was used on the Kerrang compilation album, New Breed, alongside a host of new and upcoming British acts.

Operation: Impending Doom, was released in January 2007 on Out On A Limb Records. Over two tracks and 20 minutes, it offers a significant shift in tone and mood from previous releases. The band head out for some dates around the country in support of the new release in January and February, followed by a support slot on Isis's last Dublin date at the Temple Bar Music Centre.

Doors open at 9pm and admission is free of charge.
