22 NOVEMBER 2013 - BEHEMOTH /PL/, OBSCURE SPHINX /PL/, THAW /PL/

BEHEMOTH /PL/ Until the late 1990s, the band played a traditional black metal style with heathen lyrical content, but soon changed to that of occult and thelemic themes written by their lead vocalist Nergal and Krzysztof Azarewicz. With the 1999 release of Satanica, the band demonstrated their presence in the death metal scene, while retaining their own signature style characterized by the drum work of Inferno, multi-layered vocals and Middle-Eastern influences. Despite the fact that Behemoth has been labeled as death metal, black metal or thrash metal-influenced, Nergal has mentioned that he does not like the band to be labeled.

OBSCURE SPHINX /PL/ Obscure Sphinx is a female-fronted metal band formed in Warsaw, 2008. Their music is situated somewhere near post-metal, but they enrich it with influence of doom metal, post-rock and progressive metal. They merge sonic spaces and electronic samples with the crushing combo of 8-string guitars and 6-string bass rhythmics. All of this is flavoured by a unique voice of the vocalist. Since now they played with bands such as Amon Amarth (se), Coroner (ch), Crippled Black Phoenix (uk), Rosetta (us), City of Ships (us), Talbot (es), My Riot (pol), At The Soundawn (it), Ketha (pol) and many more. Beside that Obscure Sphinx took part in Tides From Nebula (pol) Polish Tour and Blindead's (pol) Affliction Tour 2011.
