SORCERY (SWE) – Death Metal
www.sorcery.se
Alongside the likes of Entombed, Dismember and Grave, Sorcery count among the architects of
the iconic Swedish Death Metal sound, and co-shaped an entire genre since their inception in
1986.
Their music comes in like a slow-rolling storm: chainsaw-toned guitars, oppressive atmosphere,
and a brutality that has never been softened nor second-guessed across four decades of
existence. Unlike many of their fellows, Sorcery never went out of tune with the original sound and
spirit of what defines Swedish Death Metal.
Live, they deliver something few bands can oƯer — a direct, unfiltered transmission from Death
Metal’s most fertile era - intimate enough to feel cult, heavy enough to level a room.
With 2026 marking the band’s 40th anniversary, and a brand-new studio album arriving just in
time, Sorcery set about to prove the beast is far from finished on a short yet exclusive tour through
Central Europe this autumn. Setlist contains the very best of fourty years and features songs from
all albums.
CUTTHROAT (IRL) – Death/Thrash
www.cutthroat666.bandcamp.com
Ireland has never been a country that often shouts loudly on the Extreme Metal map — but when
it does, it draws blood.
Cutthroat are a young three-piece who sound as though they crawled out of the same filth-ridden
rehearsal rooms as Possessed, Necrovore or Repugnant — bands whose records they couldn’t
possibly have held in their hands when they were first pressed.
After two fierce demos, they will celebrate the release of their debut MLP ‚Invoking Terror‘ (June
2026 via Dying Victims Productions), which strikes with five tracks of violent, uncompromising
Death/Thrash that carries the weight and conviction of a band twice their age and with twice the
demons to exorcise.
There is nothing calculated here — no concessions, no polish, no eye on the market, no brakes —
just an insatiable, white-knuckled hunger to destroy.
Cutthroat bring that same ferocity to the stage live: raw, combustible, and utterly relentless. Pure
Metal savagery like in the days of old!
Two bands. Two generations. One uncompromising vision of what Death Metal was, is, and always
shall be.
The dynamic between four decades of Swedish Death legacy and the untamed fury of Ireland’s
most dangerous new force is as explosive as it is rare.
