Sidste offentliggjorte navn for Raise Your Horns 2025 er det internationale death metal band Berzerker Legion, der blev dannet i 2016 af guitarister Tomas Elofsson (Hypocrisy) og Alwin Zuur (Asphyx). Efter for nyligt at have gennemgået nogle ændringer i sin opstilling, er Berzerker Legion nu en kvartet, der foruden Elofsson og Zuur inkluderer Harris Sopovic (Sodomisery) på vokal og bas samt Nils Fjellström (Dark Funeral) på trommer. Bandet er signet på Listenable Records og har udgivet de to anmelderroste album ’Obliterate the Weak’ (2020) og ’Chaos Will Reign’ (2023).
Bandets musikalske udtryk kombinerer lyden fra Göteborgscenen med old-school death metal som Bolt Thrower og Obituary i et intenst og effektivt mix af brutalitet og melodi leveret med nådesløs energi og aggression. Berzerker Legion har spillet koncerter over hele Europa og har en række festivaler planlagt for 2025. Bandets optræden på Raise Your Horns bliver deres første i Danmark, og vi er beærede over, at supergruppen har valgt at inkludere vores festival på deres turnéprogram.
