Line Up: Gnomonic Incursion 2025
The enigma known as PORTAL will be returning to Europe after 10 long years for a tour across the European continent! With them will be bringing Impetuous Ritual with whom they share members and have toured with before.
Decades of Horror, the work of PORTAL in achieving its twisted vision, multitudes of horror landscapes seen through a distorted lens of filth. Elaborate darkness woven into masses of Death Metal in its own antiquity of sonic violence and perpetuating the mythos self-created. The henchmen within this brood pledge to open up its gates to feed upon mortal terror, a duty to destroy the senses and sanity.
Since 1994 the churning had begun, on through the years creating such full length albums as Seepia, Outre, Swarth, Vexovoid, ION and Avow, representations unique among themselves, each bearing the mind-set at the time, furthering the horrific visions of the Olde Guarde.

IMPETUOUS RITUAL is notorious for their unhinged live performances where the true power of the band emanates from and where they have gained the reputation as one of the most devastating live bands in death metal today! During the tour they will be showcasing violent material from each of their 4 albums, including songs being played live for the first time!

From the most remote crevices of the German extreme metal underworld come ABKEHR, a new black metal entity from Northern Germany who's genesis appears to have been sparked by unprecedented emotional and mental collapse and by an unfathomable pull towards absolute, devouring darkness. Abkehr were formed in 2015 in Northern Germany by sole masterminds Raash and H. with the intent of unifying under the black looming star of self-disintegration the raw misanthropic grimness of the most praised Norwegian black metal tradition with the atmosphere and desperation of depressive black metal, and the swarming majesty of US atmospheric black metal. Shaped by a diverse and sapient pletora of influences ranging from Darkthrone, Gorgoroth, and Craft, to Cornigr, Mga, and Ash Borer, Abkehr have funneled the primordial rejection and hatred of traditional black metal through a cascading surge of the most blighted and tormented human emotions, creating something grandiose and ungraspable whose beauty is matched solely by its own omnipotent wretchedness.
