FROM INFERNO FEST 2023 PROMOTERS:
We know you are hungry and excited for more artists for Inferno Metal Festival 2023 – so here we go! We are proud to welcome Dark Funeral, UADA, Sakis Tolis, MORK, Vredehammer and Afsky to our 2023 edition.
DARK FUNERAL
Swedish black metal pioneers Dark Funeral have blazed a path of satanic ritualism and anti-religion that has endured for nearly three decades. The band’s seventh studio album, “We Are the Apocalypse”, was released in 2022 to great acclaim. The album shows a band still as hungry and hellish as when they made classics such as “The Secrets of the Black Arts” in 1996 and “Vobiscum Satanas” in 1998. We are proud to have Dark Funeral back at Inferno to raise some hell!
UADA
From America’s northwest we have black metal band Uada. Since their formation in 2014, Uada's rise has been meteoric. The band released their debut album, “Devoid of Light” in 2016, and was soon a band to follow! The sequel “Cult Of A Dying Sun” expressed the band’s inimitably thunderous approach to aural darkness. In 2020 the band released their third album called “Djinn”. The band was also suppose to play at Inferno Metal Festival in 2020 – but things did not turn out that way – so we are happy to have them back for next year.
SAKIS TOLIS
If you are into black metal there is a huge chance to you already know about Sakis Tolis from the great Greek band Rotting Christ. In 2022 Sakis Tolis released his first solo album – an amazing record called “Among the Fires of Hell”. It sounds black, gothic and ritualistic. Now Sakis Tolis will come to Norway and Inferno Metal Festival to perform with his solo band for the very first time!
MORK
Mork was created by Thomas Eriksen in the town of Halden in Norway during 2004. Both then and now the band functions as a one-man-band – much like many others within the Black Metal-genre. Since 2014 the band performed live as a full band, and has done tours and shows in Europe and North America. Mork has received widespread coverage and acclaim by both underground and mainstream media, and are highly respected by scene legends as Nocturno Culto and Fenriz (Darkthrone) and Silenoz (Dimmu Borgir). The latest album, the massive masterpiece “Katedralen”, was released in March 2021.
VREDEHAMMER
Vredehammer started as a one-man project in 2009 and released three EPs on a small underground label before their debut album “Vinteroffer” was released in 2014. Vredehammer instantly made themselves known as a force to be reckoned with in the Norwegian metal scene. One album in and the band was already nominated for “metal album of the year” through the Norwegian Grammys. The band quickly grow to become a full touring band with three highly acclaimed full-length albums in their discography. Since then Vredehammer have toured Europe as support for bands such as Satyricon and Six Feet Under, as well as together with Keep of Kalessin and Vreid, plus their own European headlining tour. It's time to bring Vredehammer back to Inferno.
AFSKY
Danish black metal one-man band Afsky brings melancholy and sorrow to Inferno Metal Festival. The band started in 2015 and has then released two full-length albums; “Sorg” in 2018 and “Ofte jeg drømmer mig død” in 2020. Looking at the lyrics, the albums translates into “Sorrow” and “I often dream my self dead”, it might seem more that sad. But there is a beauty in all the depressive music and lyrics of Afsky that you can experience in all it's glory when Afsky performs at Inferno for the very first time.
