MERRIMACK comment on the tour: “9 Years after our successful USA tour with the mighty Marduk, Merrimack will support the Swedish devils again for 4 shows in Japan. We are stoked to explore the Nippon territories for the first time, and deliver some pure french Black Metal, played with devotion and faith, to the maniacs there. It’s a brand new experience for us, but it will definitely leave a mark on the Japanese crowd as well!”

STORTREGN is a blackened death metal band, formed in Switzerland in 2005. Initially influenced by the Nordic black metal scene, they have expanded their vision and sound into a more contemporary era. They are greatly appreciated for their music and even more so for their live shows. With a relentless energy, they deliver a mix of charging riffs, blast beats and brutality that leaves the audience with a lasting impression and begging for more. After a deluge of gigs, including Wacken, Metal Days, and 4 international tours, Stortregn has become inevitable in the Blackened Death metal scene. Their fourth album, “Emptiness Fills the Void” came out on May 25th, 2018 via Non Serviam Records. Moreover, with the recent signing with ALPHA OMEGA Management Agency, Stortregn are now planning to tour the world intensely. The band recently finished their European tour with IMMOLATION & FULL OF HELL (March/April 2018), furthermore STORTREGN will tour Europe with MARDUK in December 2018, and there is far more to come. Expressing this album through live performances with violence, blast beats, and killer riffs is what the band is about. At each of their thunderous live appearances, Stortregn ravage the place until the smallest shred of human skin is marked. The five members, tight as a hungry wolf-pack, energetically release their inner storm to transform every show into a dark and metallic mass of death, with precision, quality and professionalism. Watch “Circular Infinity”, taken from the band’s new album “Emptiness Fills the Void”:
