OBSCURA | confirm AMSTERDAM METALFEST 2018TICKETS & INFORMATION

Fleshgod Apocalypse, Obscura, The Charm The Fury and more at Amsterdam Metalfest, on Saturday May 19 th at the Melkweg (Amsterdam). Lurking ominously behind the canaled facade of Amsterdam’s street view, is Amsterdam Metalfests’ haunting spell waiting to be cast. May 19 th marks the first edition in the biggest hall of Amsterdam’s much revered venue Melkweg, The Max, and features an array of metal as symphonic, technical, melodic and stoner-groove are all on tonight’s menu. This year, Amsterdam Metalfest has the support of Buma ROCKS! Doors open at 16:00, tickets cost €22,50 (excl. membership).

Headliner Fleshgod Apocalypse proves that ‘death metal’ and ‘symphony’ make a savage blend. This, combined with their onstage theatrical bravado, promises to be nothing less than a spectacular showdown. The German technical death metal quartet Obscura is the second to last act to play the podium and their latest well-praised Akróasis (Relapse Records, 2016) possesses a sound that borders the virtuose. The Charm The Fury will have the home advantage! After a year of riding the European lands, playing high-profile support shows, this melodic metalcore foursome from Amsterdam finally returns to their hometown.

The first half of this evening is filled with the brutal death metal of the Italian Hideous Divinity, the also-from-Amsterdam melodeath outfit For I Am King, and the icebreaking groovy-sludge-blues of Onegodless.

Obscura | 15 Years Anniversary Show - Ticket

Obscura

The worldwide leading Progressive-Death-Metal band Obscura has been founded in Landshut, Germany in 2002. Following national and international chart-breaking records, tours within Europe, the United States, Asia, Middle East and Central America and support by MTV / VH1, their new album “Akroasis” sets new standards in Death Metal. Obscura returns to Landshut, Germany, the place where everything begun, for one special evening to celebrate their 15 Year Anniversary. As part of the „Akroasis World Tour“, nothing but an excellent performance and stellar live show will be guaranteed.


 

Deserted Fear

Thuringia´s Deserted Fear are crafting their vision passionately and merciless since 2008. Their debut album “My Empire” (2012) blew up a lot of dust and they are on their way to become one of the most important forces in the European metal scene. Deserted Fear combine the sound of Swedish death metal with US old school death metal to create their very own, modern sound, without losing heaviness and authenticity.

Thulcandra

Thulcandra was founded back in 2003 by Steffen Kummerer (Obscura) and Juergen Zintz with the intention to write music in the vein of Dissection, Sacramentum, and Unanimated: music that celebrates old-school Swedish blackened death metal. Following three successful records through Austria’s Napalm Records, numerous tours within Europe and a strong following, Thulcandra pay homage to a style brought back to life with blazing intensity.

Sektor

Sektor is a rising Blackened Death Metal Band from Landshut, Germany. Since 2011, they are gaining rising attention with gigs supporting bands like Negator or Izegrim. In this context, the musical facets which reflect the roots of the individual members, form a sound with greatest possible sovereignty.

Lyrics
Within a fountain of stars, deforming remnants pulsate
in eclectic wisdom sublime, warping quantiles vibrate
Divine, a glimpse of carbon-based life, A gargantuan symmetric pursuit
in harmonic order, monolithic derivation, of seminal repute

Arise – Emanation of cosmos and time
Revive – Relinquished, forsaken, deserted mankind

Omnipresent, eudemonic, abandoned in ecstasy
Beyond all finite and infinite, quantile elements scintillate
in serendipity stillborn, a harmonic resonance amain
