Mystic Festival (PL) Continues To Add More Bands To Line-Up

Mystic Festival adds four excellent bands to the festival line-up. They are Fulci, Eihwar, Soilent Green, and Der Weg Einer Freiheit.

Fulci

Lucio Fulci was a cult giallo director, a legend of radical and revolting underground cinema. What music does a band paying homage to a man like that play? Well, of course, disgusting gore death metal! The Italians have horror in their blood, blood on their hands, and with their brutal, grimy music they continue the worst practices of Mortician and Autopsy. If the zombie apocalypse starts just in time for their concert in Gdansk, we will not be surprised.

Eihwar

Living echoes of Nordic legends, drums growling in the war camp on the night before the final battle, folk trance that does not tire but readies the body for battle fury… Asrunn and Mark created Eihwar to tell anew the cultural heritage of the Vikings in a way that marries tradition with modernity, poetry with a thirst for blood. Join us in this dance.

Soilent Green

Allegedly, there are people who think jazz when they hear New Orleans. Weird… The most beautiful music tradition to come out of this city is, after all, sludge metal. Soilent Green have lorded over the extreme corners of this scene for over three decades now with their stifling and swampy sludge, christened in grind and death metal. It is very unhealthy and most likely illegal, and that’s exactly it’s charm.

Der Weg Einer Freiheit

German post-black metal is a category of its own – an endless resource of coldness, despair and rage. One of the most interesting representatives of this scene is the Bavarian Der Weg Einer Freiheit. From their 2010 debut to their latest album, Innern, they have chiselled their own labyrinths in the pitch-black darkness. “Aggression, emotions and controlled chaos” is how one reviewer described their music. Enough said.
