IKU-TURSO Finnish/Dutch black metal paganism, darkness & death since 2017.
They released the “Ikuinen Steelfest MMXXII Rehearsal” on a limited edt cassette (50 copies,no digital release) 12th of May 1922. A Few copies were given to the audience after the gig and band copies sold at the festival exclusively (according to Discogs. Kinda odd. And cool:)
nd. (Englis
Iku-Turso is a mythological Finnish sea monster which appears in the Kalevala, the national epic of Karelia and Finlandh version here)

Really excited about this gig! As so many other bands at this festival, my first chance to see live. Gotta love Steelfest for all the opportunities and Werewolf & the band IRL were great!
Part of Sunday Bacchanal “Exclusive pre-listening sessions of new Satanic Warmaster album” Sounded really good while sitting there with a plate with roasted pig and sahti:D The 3 song CD single “Bafomet” is out already!

Been 9 years since I saw the band at Party.San. Found out that Martin Impaler is no longer with them (live guitars for some years). He still runs the awesome Metal Magic in Denmark:)
Cool show!
“By now, DENIAL OF GOD should need little introduction. Since that fateful year of 1991, the brothers Azter and Ustumallagam have perfected an idiosyncratic style of black metal that’s positively drenched in the supernatural and remains firm in their conviction of more classicist-styled songwriting. In fact, “black metal” might even be a misnomer; rather, BLACK HORROR METAL would be more accurate.”

SARGEIST Started as Shatraug’s solo project.
“Sargeist often seems like one of the realest black metal bands out there. The music sticks to a raw, oldschool and unadulterated take on the genre that deftly blends in big, lush and emotive riffs. Without too many bells and whistles, Sargeist is also one of the catchiest black metal bands out there” — Wyatt Marshall/invisibleoranges.com

Black metal from Montréal/Quebec, Canada since 1999. One of the many bands at Steelfest I never had the chance to see live before! Very few, very shitty pictures.
[Live clip by Saatanan Aslakki]“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”” –

Formed 1993 in Oakland, CA, United States. Tough luck with drummers:/ read all about it in the interview (link below) by Bardo Methodolgy. I know nothing about them and a bit hard to find stuff so I copy, paste & link as usual:D
“Since the band began in the early 1990s, Morbosidad has remained one of the most consistent bands in the Bestial Black/Death scene. As one of the very few bands that has maintained the extremity in their sound throughout the decades, Morbosidad has assumed a deservedly prominent status within the ranks of the underground. Led by vocalist Tomas Stench, whose depraved vision guides the band and whose distinctive vocal style is the signature of all Morbosidad releases, Morbosidad has evolved through the years without sacrificing their integrity” – nhfastore.net

Black metal about satanism & war from Lahti, Finland. One man project founded in 2019. Just awesome!
“WARMOON LORD is the work of one man Vechi Vrajitor, or, more down to Earth, Juuso Peltola, also in Musta Risti, Old Sorcery and Megahammer. Given that the second album Battlefields is on Werewolf Records (run by Mr. Werwolf himself Lauri Penttila), one might surmise quality black metal will be in the offing” – metalreviews.com

“Black Metal has lived, for most of its life, with the Dark and the Light; musicians have crafted master pieces that can easily be placed in both sides of the spectrum, and remember that Drak does not always mean Aggressive, nor does Light always mean Gentle and Kind. Cénotaphe are, once again, able to combine both sides of this special spectrum, and craft a remarkable piece of Black Metal.”
