+ OATHBREAKER (B, Deathwish inc)

Sledgehammer drums, relentlessly throbbing bass, guitars that crush your spine and vocals that’ll tear your face off, this is OATHBREAKER... Slowly but steadily they have been paving their way to the top of the Belgian hardcore scene by tearing down every single venue they ever played in. And with Deathwish that just released their full-length debut “Mælstrøm”, nothing can hold them from total global domination. Get caught in their nauseating vortex of chaos and demise, descend into the nether regions of hardcore and dance to the fiery hymns of the Oathbreaker. Sell your soul and don’t break the oath. For fans of HIS HERO IS GONE, RISE AND FALL, FROM ASHES RISE, etc. Featuring Lennart from AMENRA on guitar.

+ DJ Levy (Hessian)
