The DIY stage is where Tolminator’s underground spirit really comes to life. We caught a few of the shows featuring local Slovenian bands like Poguba, Chik Pawza and mal pre mal getting the chance to step into the spotlight and show what they’ve got, but also bands like Austrian sludgers Thosar, Basque country grinders Mutilated Judge and Californian death metallers Dark Insanity!
With Cobra the Impaler, Modder and Bloed, we got 3 top acts from the Belgian underground, sludge and post-metal to demolish Club Wintercircus in Ghent!
Day 3 at Tolminator had it all, chaos, doom, filth, and ritual. Insanity Alert, Ahab, Dopethrone, Wolfbrigade, and Rotting Christ tore up the main stage!

From the triumphant return of 3 Inches of Blood to the symphonic fury of Fleshgod Apocalypse, the crushing weight of Inter Arma, the haunting doom of Frayle, the occult darkness of Ruïm, and the mind-bending chaos of Oranssi Pazuzu, it was truely a journey through the extremes of heavy music!
Day 1 at Alcatraz started with a bang… Blaze Bayley, SNOT, Wednesday 13, W.A.S.P., Mastodon and Kreator all took over the Prison Stage.
