“CHAMBER OF UNLIGHT began as the solo work of multi-instrumentalist Necrosis. The man stands as a prolific veteran of Finland’s esteemed extreme metal landscape; during the past 20 years, his credits include Deathchain, Ajattara, Shade Empire, and Trollheims Grott. Joined by drummer Kassara – himself an equally prolific Finnish veteran whose credits likewise include Deathchain and Trollheims Grott but also Horna, Bythos, Forgotten Horror, Striges, and Black Death Ritual among others – CHAMBER OF UNLIGHT released their self-titled debut demo in 2017. Immediately, the eldritch essence of ’90s Finnish black metal was felt, and the storm was only brewing” – planetmosh.com

INFERNAL WAR from Poland are about Death, Hatred, Satanism, Anti-Christianity @ WII (according to M.A.)
I didn´t stay the whole gig but something happended at some point and the band just walked out without finishing the set. Heard someone got ill but haven´t been googling, so dunno. Sounded good as long I was there, tho. Not much activity on social media so no statements there.

“Initially, Akitsa was made up exclusively of OT and Néant, who came together because of their common taste for “pure” black metal . Éric Syre joined the group after the summer of 2008 , after a tour of Canada with the French Peste Noire and Sombres Forêts . The tour was called “Les treize nuits de la plague”” –

A bit tricky one…but A.M.S.G. was actually SEIGNEUR VOLAND
The M.A. : “Xaphan conceptualized the band in 1996 while serving a prison sentence for grave desecration. He was released in April 1999 and recruited the other members.
Reformed to play live for 3 reunion gigs in 2004 (Netherlands, Switzerland and France) and again in 2019 (Finland, Belgium, Germany and Ukraine), Japan in 2020 (Tokyo and Osaka), and again in 2022 when they played a surprise set at SteelFest using the name “AMSG”.”

So there you go. Need to figure out where to sort them in the band list:/ Really cool band live!
Btw..Steelfest still got some official band merch to buy from their webpage!
