Servants of Chaos - last 3 bands confirmed

Three inimitable bands are confirmed to finalise the line-up for DMP's Servants of Chaos festival in Oberhausen (Germany) on October 18th and 19th 2024:

AKHLYS: Known for their pitch-black and dreamlike incursions into Black Metal, AKHLYS have created two profoundly haunting and acclaimed albums "The Dreaming I" (2015) and "Melinoë" (2020). This July, new full-length, "House of the Black Geminus", will offer six more meticulously crafted tracks brimming with exhilarating Black Metal terror. Having honed their live performances through extensive recent touring (see here), AKHLYS will deliver a specially extended set at Servants of Chaos festival. Do not miss this intense spectacle of nightmarish Black Metal magick. Sample first single from the new album, 'Sister Silence, Brother Sleep', here:

WHITE WARD: The ongoing russian war of aggression against their homeland Ukraine has posed a significant touring challenge to innovative Black Metal group WHITE WARD. Therefore, we are delighted to confirm the band's participation at SoC festival to showcase their peerless and deviant Art. WHITE WARD's captivating recent performance at Roadburn festival in the Netherlands revealed the uniquely emotive experience awaiting Servants of Chaos attendees. Check a live studio recording here and explore latest album, "False Light", directly below:

Please note: Due to potential changes in Ukrainian regulations for international travel and touring amid the ongoing war, the WHITE WARD performance cannot be guaranteed. We will continue to provide regular updates on the situation.

ARKONA: In 2019 legendary Polish Black Metal horde ARKONA unleashed last album, "Age of Capricorn", which blended the band’s trademark nihilistic fury with cinematic orchestration and corrosive melodic riffs. In the years since, ARKONA finished crafting a new full-length masterpiece which will be unveiled prior to SoC festival. The band will perform the entire new album live on stage, alongside classic material from their extensive back-catalogue. Do not miss this exclusive opportunity! Check one of their live gigs here and listen to "Age of Capricorn" directly below:
