And here we are again announcing the complete bill for the next edition of the Metalitalia Festival!
If the headliners and the first confirmed bands made you think of a weekend more than ever devoted to old school sounds, albeit expressed in various ways, today we are happy to be able to reiterate the direction suggested by the previous announcements with a final round of confirmations in the purest metal tradition!
Saturday 14th September will be a day dedicated to the die-hards and those who love a bit of movement in the pit. Along with OVERKILL, DESTRUCTION, MORBID SAINT and CRIPPLE BASTARDS, we will host four other bands for a day that promises to be particularly intense.
It is now our tradition to bring to Italy bands that are not often seen or have never even played in our country. Having said that, we are proud to announce an exclusive show by British thrashers XENTRIX, who have recently been busy celebrating the thirty-fifth anniversary of the release of their debut album “Shattered Existence”.
Another important confirmation in the thrash metal field is ANGELUS APATRIDA, an inspiring Spanish band that has been setting European stages on fire for years. The band will support their latest album “Aftermath”, released at the end of last year for Century Media Records.
To complete Saturday’s billboard, the Piedmontese thrashers URAL, an act that many fans of the genre are getting to know, thanks to a series of increasingly convincing releases, and the Lombard death metallers HUSQWARNAH, whose rough old school sounds will have the task of warming up the audience shortly after the doors.
Sunday 15th September already had all the potential to become one of the most celebrated days in the history of our festival, but something more can always be done.
After DEATH SS – invited for an exclusive double set, with a show divided between a best of concert and a full performance of the debut album “In DEATH of Steve Sylvester” – CIRITH UNGOL on their unmissable farewell tour, WARLORD for a heartfelt tribute to the late leader William J. Tsamis and NIGHT DEMON, we are now truly proud to complete the bill starting from the confirmation of SATAN!
Among the pioneers of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal with the magnificent debut album “Court in the Act” (1983), the Newcastle band is experiencing an exciting second part of their career, with records such as “Cruel Magic” and the recent “Earth Infernal” which marked a return to the quality of the past, bringing the name SATAN back into the spotlight.
At the beginning, to complete the day, it is a pleasure to host the Californians HAUNT – one of the most active acts of the so-called New Wave Of Traditional Heavy Metal – and their compatriots HELL FIRE, known for their dynamic mixture of speed and classic metal.
Stay tuned as many other details, including the times of the free meet & greets with all the artists, the metal market, other information on the Metalitalia Ink tattoo convention and new surprises will be announced in the coming weeks!
