Less than 24 hours until Steelfest Open Air begins. First beers, first distortion, first chaos. With a bunch of excellent acts throughout the whole weekend, we like to highlight a handful of performances for every festival day you really shouldn’t miss. With on day 1 festival openers Evil Angel, the return of US black metal duo FIN, a once-in-a-lifetime 40th anniversary show from war metal icons Holocausto, old school Enthroned music with Sabathan and an absolutely relentless end of the day through Revenge — five very different ways to properly start a weekend of underground madness. If you’re going, what are you looking forward to?

It’s looking like Steelfest is going to sell out this year, but if you’re still somehow on the fence if you should go next week or not, here are some solid reasons why you should make the effort this year… If you’re going, why is Steelfest THE event you’re investing your time and money in?
Greek black metal formation Yoth Iria embrace bombastic elements on their new album “Gone with the Devil”. Blending heavy metal and melodic black metal, it delivers a majestic sound full of hooks. Out via Metal Blade Records tomorrow, May 8th.
