Brutal Assault Reveals Daily Lineups
Brutal Assault, the annual celebration for all fans of extreme music, announces the division of bands by day for this year’s edition. At the same time, single-day ticket sales have been launched – available for all five days of the festival.
The festival traditionally kicks off on Tuesday with a warm-up event, giving visitors a chance to get pumped up for the four days of sonic mayhem to follow. This year’s warm-up will feature thrash/speed maniacs Carnivore A.D., Norwegian doom prophets Funeral, and cult American trio Macabre. Representing the Czech scene is a handpicked lineup: Marked As An Enemy, Cutterred Flesh, Pan Lynx, Faüst, and See You In Hell.
Wednesday marks the start of the main program with a heavy and uncompromising punch. Fortress Josefov will quake under the force of American sludge titans Mastodon, industrial legends Ministry and Static-X, and thrash metal icon Kerry King, who will make his Brutal Assault debut. Death metal fans can look forward to Dying Fetus and Blood Red Throne, while black metal rituals will be delivered by Rotting Christ and Ruïm.
Thursday will maintain the high tempo – French juggernauts Gojira return to Josefov, joined by '90s modern metal icons Fear Factory and Norwegian progressives Leprous. A triple dose of American death metal comes courtesy of Obituary, Suffocation, and Nile, while metalcore fans can brace for Fit For a King and August Burns Red. The day also includes a tribute to legendary band Bathory by the project Blood Fire Death.
Friday won’t give listeners a moment to catch their breath. On stage will be black metal pioneers Mayhem and symphonic heavyweights Dimmu Borgir. Modern metalcore will be represented by Landmvrks and Counterparts, post-metal melancholy by Cult of Luna and Harakiri for the Sky, and a gothic metal mass by Paradise Lost.
Saturday offers a fitting finale to the entire festival. Look forward to progressive death metal masters Opeth, brutal blasts from Brujeria and Benighted, and Australian prog-metal gem Karnivool. Old-school energy will be brought by hardcore legends Agnostic Front and thrashers Overkill, while modern melodic death metal will be served by Swedish project The Halo Effect.
The festival is also launching the sale of a limited number of single-day tickets! These are available for each day of the event – a perfect choice for those who can’t attend the whole week but still don’t want to miss out on the highlight of the metal summer. Single-day parking is also available.

See Dying Fetus’ Entire FYA Fest Performance
The 10th annual FYA Fest brought hardcore music enthusiasts in the Tampa, Florida area together for an electrifying experience.

A standout moment came during Dying Fetus' set on the first day. The Maryland-based brutal death metal legends delivered a performance that lived up to their reputation, as captured in a 33+ minute video below.
What truly turned heads, however, was their rendition of Integrity's classic track "Judgement Day," featuring the vocals of Colin Young from Twitching Tongues and God's Hate. The footage of Dying Fetus' set was captured by Feet First Productions.
Metal Science: Killer Music Against Killer Whales
As incidents of killer whales attacking boats in the Strait of Gibraltar persist, some sailors have resorted to using heavy metal music as a deterrent—a tactic that experts caution might not yield the desired results.
Since May 2020, orcas have repeatedly targeted boats along the coasts of Spain and Portugal, specifically attempting to damage their rudders. While there have been no human injuries, at least three boats have been sunk, and numerous others have sustained damage from these assaults.
Experts remain uncertain about the cause of these behaviors but suspect they might have originated from White Gladis, a killer whale potentially traumatized by an injury caused by a boat's rudder.
Killer whales are known for adopting behaviors within pods, such as in 1987 when a female in Puget Sound initiated the trend of wearing a dead salmon on her head, subsequently observed in other pods.
In response to these incidents, sailors have been sharing tactics to evade what's being dubbed as the 'orca uprising,' including playing loud heavy metal music through underwater speakers as a deterrent. However, experts warn that the effectiveness of this approach remains uncertain.
Florian Rutsch, speaking with the New York Times, shared his use of the curated playlist named 'Metal for Orcas' as a method to discourage the killer whales from approaching his catamaran. This suggestion is among several others circulating on platforms like Facebook, Telegram, and other social media channels.
The playlist according to London's Metro News consists of tracks like "Exceptionally Sadistic" by Monument Of Misanthropy and "The Blood Of Power" by Dying Fetus:
Expressing his concern, Mr. Rutsch mentioned:
‘It is scary. No one knows what works, what doesn’t work.’More...
