We are very excited to welcome to KILKIM ŽAIBU one of the most respected bands of current extreme metal scene – TRIPTYKON from Switzerland!
The roots of TRIPTYKON goes deep into the start of eighties, when singer and guitarist Thomas Gabriel Fisher (Tom Warrior) formed Hellhammer, which is widely credited as pioneers of extreme metal, and later successfully continued to release albums with his next band Celtic Frost. Today Tom Warrior travels the world with TRIPTYKON, and this will be their first ever visit in Baltic States!
Last year TRIPTYKON, released “Melana Chasmata” which was praised by worldwide metal media as one the best albums of 2014!
“Heavy as a heavy thing weighed down with heaviness, Triptykon takes off from where Celtic Frost left off. This is dark, dense and utterly unrelenting in its blackness. This is close to musical genius.” /Classic Rock, UK/
During the set TRIPTYKON also performs a few selected tracks from Celtic Frost and Hellhammer repertoire. Come to KILKIM ŽAIBU to create a history together!
+ more well-known metal bands, archaic folk groups and ancient battle clubs are to be announced!
Festival territory is smaller than in previous years, therefore we strongly advise to book tickets in advance. As of now 2 day ticket costs 28 euro. After 15th of March prices will increase, hurry up!
