Bleak House are a British heavy metal band formed in 1972, who were active during the New wave of British heavy metal era of the late 1970s and early 1980s. They are best known for their song "Rainbow Warrior", which gained fame due to its similarities with the 1986 Metallica song "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)".
Having been inactive for nearly forty years, the band announced that they would be reuniting for a one-off show at the Keep it True Festival 2021 in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany. This was then postponed to 2022, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] The band's appearance at the festival was subsequently rescheduled to 2024, with a warm-up show at The Water Rats in London planned for 23 March 2024.[2]
