I mere end 25 år har svenske Diabolical leveret deres kompromisløse tag på death/black metal, der konstant overrasker lytteren med uventede, udfordrende elementer. Fans af navne som Behemoth, Opeth og Dimmu Borgir vil måske finde gruppens musik interessant grundet blandingen af knusende death med symfonisk black og progressiv heavy. Men Diabolical hæver sig over genrekonventioner og går sine egne veje, hvilket de har bevist igen og igen på foreløbigt fem album siden 2001.
Diabolical har spillet de største metalfestivaler og som hovednavn turneret over hele Europa inkl. Rumænien med Machiavellian God, som ligeledes kan opleves på Raise Your Horns. Deres seneste album ’Eclipse’ udkom i 2019, så det er på høje tid med et nyt, der skulle være på trapperne til udgivelse på Indie Recordings. Diabolical har en række store festivaler planlagt for 2025, så vi kunne ikke være mere begejstrede for, at dette suveræne band har inkluderet Bornholm på listen.

For more than 25 years, Swedes Diabolical have delivered their uncompromising take on death/black metal, constantly surprising the listener with unsuspected, challenging elements. Fans of names such as Behemoth, Opeth, and Dimmu Borgir might find the group’s music interesting due to the mix of crushing death with symphonic black, and progressive heavy. But Diabolical rise above genre conventions and go their own way which they have proved again and again on five albums so far since 2001.
Diabolical have played the biggest metal festivals and as headliner toured all over Europe including Romania with Machiavellian God who can be experienced on Raise Your Horns as well. Their latest album ’Eclipse’ was released in 2019, so it is about time for a new one which should be on its way for release on Indie Recordings. Diabolical have several big festivals planned for 2025, so we could not be more thrilled that this supreme band have included Bornholm on the list.
