The line-up of this year’s BRUTAL ASSAULT is almost complete. The organisers revealed a versatile set of bands that join the pack that will play in Czech’s 29th edition of well known festival.
It features American CROWBAR – Sludge/ Doom Metal powerhouse and seemingly similar in genre, but still very different AHAB. Czech Republic will be represented by Post Metal LVMEN, Poland by DOM ZŁY, Norway by DJERV and MORAX while Japan by COFFINS and VIOLENT MAGIC ORCHESTRA. The list bands is completed by Doom Metal RAGANA from the USA, experimental DOODSESKADER from Belgium and CHAOTIAN, Death Metal band from Denmark.
Fans of FALLUJAH will not like the information that the band had to cancel their participation in the festival, but there is a good replacement for death metal fans – CRYPTIC SHIFT. If somebody likes technical and complicated rythms and tempo changes, will definitely be amazed by what this band is able to present.
The festival takes place on the grounds of Josefov Fortress in the city called Jaromer. It starts with the warm-up day on 4th August and will last the another full four days on 4 stages. Tickets for all days (including warm-up day) cost 216,66 Euro (e-ticket valid till end of May or until the batch runs out). There are also tickets available for the youngest children (up to 12 y.o.), other for older ones (13-18 y.o.).
Apart from the tent area, there are also options to sleep in various hotels or dormitories in the neighbouring cities. The price for that also includes the possibility of free transportation to the event (1x daily back and forth).
Organisers also added an option to officially exchange the tickets for the festival, additional zones or hotel options – this is yet to be opened closer to the festival date.
