Brutal Assault 2018 - République Tchèque - 8-11/08/2018

Certes, parce que Diablo Swing Orchestra…

Ah non, ça j’irai voir juste par curiosité. J’avais bien aimé le premier album à l’époque (enfin, surtout un morceau). Je parlais surtout de toutes les cochonneries -core.

Ah ouais Northlane c’est pas possible, Hate non plus remarque.

NEW BANDS WITH PARADISE LOST, NOCTURNUS AD, UNLEASHED OR FULL OF HELL!

PARADISE LOST have not only defined the gothic subgenre and raised doom metal to a new level, they can also be considered pioneers of an entire musical generation. Upon their formation on the ashes of other musical pioneers Nihilist, UNLEASHED were formed and quickly adopted the position of Chief Vikings of Swedish Death Metal scene, which they up to this day refuse to vacate. And speaking of pioneers, we’re also extremely happy to welcome unique thrash powerhouse from the US to the bill, EXHORDER! Another groundbreaking act that will honor BA with one of its unique cosmic death metal performances is NOCTURNUS AD of Mike Browning!

NEOCAESAR will be invoking the best form of Dutch death metal once represented by Sinister and even though the band is recent spawn project, it is comprised of veteran former Sinister members. The current incarnation of Finnish post-punk phenomenon Beastmilk will pleasure the fans under the moniker GRAVE PLEASURES, while the fans of progressive guitar work can look forward for the virtuoso PLINI! We will also welcome uncompromising UNSANE, brutal soundtrack of New York city cacophony and the toughest noise riffs which are able to attack with fury of angry beast.

Contemporary avantgarde with grim undertones will be summoned by DODECAHEDRON, while French CELESTE will cast gloom with their dark post-hardcore sludge. Aggressive and one of the best live acts FULL OF HELL will replace NAILS in the line-up, so get ready for walls of noise and massive explosions of furious rhythms and riffs. This is brutality and darkness in its purest form.

Plus de Nails mais Full of Hell a la place, ca me va.

Le fest annonce un total de 130 groupes pour la prochaine edition sur 4 jours et 5 scenes.

Ca va etre la guerre!

Après on est déjà techniquement sur 5 scènes, si on compte la scène dans la caserne qui fait 2 concerts par jour et la scène ambient en face du ciné. Est-ce qu’ils comptent comme ça ou ils ont rajouté une vraie scène en plus ?

Bonne question mais il n’y a pas plus de détail sur l’image promo qui a été posté.

Non non c’est celles qui sont déja en places.

Les orgas parlent d’une grosse annonce jeudi :frotte:

Pleymo ?

Mystic Circle ?

Tu dis Pleymo mais je regarderais peut-être de loin si ils étaient à l’affiche.

Le 1er en entier et je viens :coluche:
J’ai déjà vu 2 fois :hass:

T’es chaud, bob… J’ai pas réécouté le premier depuis des lustres et j’imagine qu’en live ils font surtout leurs albums pop et peut-être le second qui les a fait explosé.

GOJIRA, TESTAMENT, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, GRAVEYARD AND MANY MORE!

We are thrilled to announce probably the biggest bands update accross different genres. To spice things up we are welcoming back technical death metal powerhouse Gojira, one of extreme prog’s modern leading lights.

Also thrash metal Titans Testament are returning to BA, the band, that reigned the genre throne with the latest album Brotherhood of the Snake. Speaking of veterans, we are also happy to welcome classic heavy metal juggernaut Armored Saint this time with former Anthrax member John Bush as well as mighty Peter Tägtgren with his melodic industrial-metal alter ego Pain.

Get your bandanas ready, since Suicidal Tendencies are coming to Josefov, skateboard anthems factory with monstrous bass lines and the one and only drummer, that makes hardcore thrash legends even more killer.

Who’s responsible for crossover thrash tsunami few years ago? Blame Municipal Waste for sure aka let’s remind those times when Cryptic Slaughter, D.R.I. or Attitude Adjustment ruled stages. A soupergroup Act Of Defiance consisting of former Megadeth members will give us a lesson about true heavy/thrash metal riffing.

Fans of golden rock era could appreciate Swedish act Graveyard, the one and only band, which was able to resurrect faithfully the best rock vibes of 1960s and 1970s.

Mexican drug lords Brujeria are coming once again to show us grindcore / death metal Macarena. Polish school of blackened death metal will be represented by AZARATH.

British Dragged Into Sunlight relentlessly push boundaries of black metal, post-metal and sludge to new extremes with a huge wall of amps and extreme decibels of anger and despair. Belgian beast Wiegedood with members of AmenRa, Oathbreaker or Rise and Fall will show us a merciless black metal storm.

Hardcore lineup getting stronger with uncompromising INTEGRITY, a classical Clevo band from the dark side of hardcore that began to put metallic sound into the genre. Another hardcore punk veterans Terror are also coming to the fortress. Meanwhile, Canadian AngelMaker is the new predatory pike in the deathcore pond.


Mouais, des trucs sympas, mais pas la grosse trique non plus. J4ai mis les noms en gras, parce qu’avec tous les noms rajoutés, on pourrait s’imaginer des choses :zemmour:

Du lourd !

Ca le fait.

BLACKENED FRIDAY UPDATE!

Even though we are not done with the genre yet, there is no salvation for black metal fans not having a BA 2018 ticket already. Here comes the darkest bill update of them all.

Marduk Official will once again perform their sinister soundtrack to war consisting of a relentless barrage of high-speed-drumming, raw and aggressive riffs and hateful roars and screams of agony. More than 25 years of black metal history collide with eons of devastation and destruction amongst human race and the result is an ugly and furious black metal with typical MARDUK trademark.

One of the most unique entities the metal underground has birthed in years comes from pagan traditions of Swiss mountains. Proudly and resolutely a duo, BÖLZER are using the barest essentials of voice, guitar, and drums and yet manage to create one of the densest, most world-eating sounds around.

Given Håvard Ellefsen status as a founding member of Emperor, we simply have to place him in this blackened batch… As many of you know, Mortiis will be playing the first era set this summer and the atendees of Brutal Assault won’t miss it! The same goes for Austrian necrodaemon flehscult desecrators Belphegor, whos presence at our festival was long overdue.

From the deepest womb of South American underground we shall summon forth the flaming black death metal beast of WRATHPRAYER in one of their rare apperances on European soil.
Malokarpatan offer a trip to the darkest corners of Eastern European folklore. Their music drinks deeply from the ancient well of Heavy Metal Wisdom, pushing forward a masterclass in timeless metal songcraft and epic storytelling alike whilst never losing the delirium-inducing iconoclasm the band made its foundation from day one.

Breaking a decade of silence, Arkhon Infaustus Official raise again from the shadows to finish their work and taking over the title of French most controversial metal act. Last but not least, Irish heathens Cruachan will demand blood for the Blood God with thier black folk metal!

:delarue:

Akercocke !!!

BANDS UPDATE WITH CANNIBAL CORPSE, MYRKUR, HELMET OR PALLBEARER

This time Brutal Assault goes deeper into the underground with another load of bands for the 2018 edition. Death metal fans can rejoice as we confirm Cannibal Corpse bringing their king size portion of guts, blood and death classics to BA once again. Also, we will welcome British progressive death / black act Akercocke a.k.a. reunited band releasing an excellent comeback album of jaw dropping magnitude.

Regarding classic stuff, Helmet with their trademarked groovy guitar riffs and unrestrained drums filled with easily recognizable voice of Page Hamilton will unleash their post hardcore whirlwind within the fortress for the first time.

Talking about darker stuff, Amalie Bruun’s Myrkur will perform with her atmospheric raw, dissonant blackened riffing combined with vocal efforts leaning closer to the earthy, doomish folk similar to Chelsea Wolfe. Pallbearer, probably the biggest Rush fans in the world, will carry their unique doom metal coffin to BA. And speaking of dark melancholic music, renowned Neurosis-like post hardcore cult Lvmen will perform their latest album Mitgefangen Mitgehangen.

Hardcore fans could appreciate H2O, unrestrained hardcore/punk act that blended Cro-Mags and Agnostic Front with punk drive of Token Entry. Speaking of comebacks, after six years we will welcome metal core whirlwind from Highlands called Bleed From Within. True thrashers will get E-FORCE, with former Voivod members.

Last but not least addition to the lineup? If you are into cold electro beats, then you would dig HORSKH, French duo beating up audience with brutal electro-industrial.
