The organisers of Metaldays Festival 2015 have confirmed  to this summer’s edition DREAM THEATER, ARCH ENEMY, FEAR FACTORY, ANVIL, VREID, KROKODIL, DR. LIVING DEAD, DIVIDED MULTITUDE, EMERGENCY GATES, DEMONIC RESURRECTION and MANNTRA to this summer’s edition, to be held on July 19-16 in Tolmin, Slovenia.

Check out more on line-up and running order HERE. Ticket pre-orders HERE.

The METALDAYS Festival will present you a friendly and absolutely relaxed atmosphere, perfect for you to just forget about all worries and enjoy your most likely best holiday ever!

The festival is located at Sotocje, which lies inbetween the two mountain rivers called Tolminka and Soca. METALDAYS has two “festival-owned” beaches for you to relax on. But the two rivers aren’t the only reason Sotocje. Tolmin is located only approx. 65 kilometers off the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, which really gives you that holiday feel. Also the road you’re travelling on will lead you through the Alps, a scenerie that will astonish both full grown metalheads and families with children alike. The METALDAYS area is also part of the Julijske Alpe National Parks, and the river Soca is one of the cleanest in Europe.

SLEGEST Inks Deal With Dark Essence Records

Patricia Thomas Management has issued that SLEGEST, the solo project of former VREID guitarist Ese, has inked a deal with Dark Essence Records for the release of the band’s debut full length album.  No release date has yet been set, but it is anticipated that the album will appear world-wide towards the end of 2013.

Formed in 2010, it was the intention of Ese to create Black Sabbath inspired music with harsh vocals.  An idea he took further, developing SLEGEST into the entity it is today, with its rock-orientated sound distinguished by a distinctive Black Metal edge.  SLEGEST’s first release was the self-titled 2012 EP, which appeared as both a digital release and as a 7” vinyl on Ese’s own label Systrond Recordings.  Work on writing new material for the as yet untitled debut full-length album began in 2012, and the drum tracks have already been laid down at the Conclave and Earshot Studios in Bergen, Norway.

Whilst many maintain that solo projects can be limiting, Ese sees things very differently. As SLEGEST’s main (and only) man explains:  “When you have to play every instrument yourself it does impose certain limitations on what you can, and cannot, do.  But I have always had a very definite vision as to how I want SLEGEST to sound, and these limitations are very positive for the fulfilment of that vision”.

Norwegian black metal overlords VREID will embark on a North American headlining tour this August. Dubbed “The Black Path Of America Tour 2011”, the trek will commence on August 25 in Toronto and trample through 14 cities before coming to a ceremonious close on September 10 in San Diego. VREID will be joined by pagan black metal co-headliners KAMPFAR and Canadian death metal ensemble NECRONOMICON.

Commented VREID bassist Hváll: “It is with great joy we can announce our first headlining tour in North America. ‘The Black Path Of America’ tour is packed with ten U.S. and six Canadian shows.

“We did our first full North America tour in 2009 on the Heathen Fest, and the reaction we got was overwhelming. We had amazing shows in Montreal, Cleveland and San Francisco — to name just a few — and are glad to see all those cities plus many more on the list for our upcoming tour.

“Our latest album, ‘V’, is doing fantastic, and has become a monumental release for us.

“We can’t wait to return to the Wild West to unleash songs new and old with our own production.

“Joining us on this tour are our good Norwegian friends of the legendary KAMPFAR and NECRONOMICON from Canada. It’s a killer lineup, and we hope to see as many of you as possible at the shows.”
