Aborted

Aborted, together with Cryptopsy, Benighted and Cytotoxin, delivered a night of extreme, brutal music and proved just how alive death metal is today.

The second day of the festival was just as genre-hopping as the first. On Thursday, Brutal Assault served up everything from death metal to electronic music.

"A little after three, the main stage kicked off a lineup that wasn't exactly a hit with the supporters of the children-and-family movement, since Aborted and Dying Fetus were up next." - Wednesday served us a hefty helping of blast beats.

Kataklysm's routine set probably thrilled the younger fans, while the older crowd could only hope for an old-school track or two to spice up an already worn-out setlist.

The Necrotic Manifesto shouldn't let fans down, because it's got everything you'd expect from Aborted.

Despite the sour weather, the very first day of this year's Metaldays festival delivered a few early peaks and was living proof of why waiting a whole year for metal holidays and a return to Tolmin is so damn hard.

Vader have proven once again that the Polish death metal monster shows no sign of the Force running dry, even after more than a quarter century on the scene.

Death metal is more than just music of insane speed, inhuman vocals, crushing drums and lyrics about exhuming and desecrating corpses. Need proof? I couldn't hand you better proof than the one sitting right in front of you
