Hubble Music Promotion have announced the following news:
Brace yourselves for the summer of 2013 – for it marks the first installment of the brand new and gargantuan BEASTIVAL festival series that will supply you with supreme heaviness, the biggest acts in metal and mean shredding!!! This three-day headbanger`s feast will take place May 30th to June 1st and will get you a perfect start into your very own heavy summer! Located in Geiselwind, Germany the line up that will enter two stages already looks like a wet dream come true. Beside SABATON, WINTERSUN, KATAKLYSM, SATYRICON and many other bands the “Big Teutonic 4″ KREATOR, SODOM, DESTRUCTION and TANKARD have been announced.
Now, two further bands have been confirmed:
KATATONIA
KATATONIA were founded in Sweden 1991 and enticed many a listener with a sombre mixture of doom, black and death metal. With “Discouraged ones” (1998), the band started to embrace a more quiet approach full of melancholic dark metal structures – and, as the recent “Dead end kings” (2012) shows, with room for progressive touches too. Indulge in some supreme melancholia with KATATONIA at the BEASTIVAL!

INSOMNIUM
People from Finland somehow seem to be destined to add a certain dose of melancholia to their songs: INSOMNIUM from Joensuu are no exception from this rule! Ever since the debut “In the halls of awaiting” (2002), the band stands for finest melodic death metal combined with doom, depression and solemn elements. No wonder with album titles such as “One for sorrow” (2011)!
