+ Support: Scar Of The Sun
Scar of The Sun is a band formed in late 2000’s, based in Athens, Greece and ever since they have been making a name for themselves throughout Europe with their fresh take on modern metal. The band has played numerous shows and festivals throughout Greece and the surrounding region and also a number of European and UK Tours with Dark Tranquillity, Insomnium, Rage, Tyr, Pain, Moonspell, Swallow The Sun, Firewind, Manimal, Septic Flesh, Equilibrium, Oceans and Monuments in Latin America.
Their sound progressively evolved into an eclectic mix of Metalcore, Djent and melodic death metal influences, with earlier work also including gothic and doom metal elements. It is modern, aggressive and heavy, but also catchy and atmospheric. Scar Of The Sun is currently gearing up to unleash their next album in 2026.

+ Torchia:
Torchia are a Finnish melodic death metal horde from Tampere, blending razor-sharp riffs, savage rhythms, and haunting melodies with a darkly theatrical edge. Their sound marries old-school thrash energy with Finnish melodic death craftsmanship, enriched by lyrical myths and occult imagery, crafted for true metal maniacs who crave depth, momentum, and atmosphere.

+ Ceremony:
Ceremony was founded in 1989 and belonged to the first wave of Dutch death metal bands, together with icons such as Sinister, Gorefest and Altar. Their fast and brutal death metal fit in seamlessly with the emerging extreme music scene of that time.
In 1992 they released their full-fledged debut album Tyranny From Above (1993) via Cyber Music Records. The album established Ceremony as a promising name within the death metal scene. But after the final promo in 1994, the band went quiet.
After years of silence, a restart came in 2015 thanks to the famous Vic Records label, Tyranny From Above re-released. This reissue brought the band members back into contact with each other and eventually led to a reunion. Which eventually resulted in the second album Retribution (2019), released by Vic Records. The album marked a fresh start for Ceremony, with some new band members and a more varied sound in which, in addition to the familiar death metal, influences of black, doom and atmospheric elements could also be heard.
In 2024, Ceremony began recording their third album, Solitary Bleed. This album marked a new step for the band, offering a darker, more theatrical sound with the intensity of their previous work. The album was produced by Erwin Hermsen (Toneshed Studio), known for his work with Legion Of The Damned and Dead Head, among others. Frank Schiphorst (Mayan) provided the orchestral aspect, which gave the music a layered and epic dimension. Linn Liv (Sisters of Suffocation, Everything Decays) provided guest vocals on the title track Solitary Bleed.
