ANGEL WITCH + SECRETS OF THE MOON + REPUGNANT til HITS

HOLE IN THE SKY presents Angel Witch, Secrets of the Moon, Repugnant

Hole in the Sky is incredibly proud to present legendary NWOBHM act Angel Witch together with Germany’s finest darkest force Secrets of the Moon and resurrected Swedish death metal masters Repugnant. Hole in the Sky 2010 is bound to be the greatest festival so far with spectacular acts like Venom, Cathedral, Obituary and The Devil’s Blood already announced. And a lot more will follow.

 

 

Legend-alert! Kevin Heybourne & co released one of the definitive cornerstones of NWOBHM and occult heavy metal with their timeless self-titled debut back in 1980. Containing immortal tracks like «Atlantis», «White Witch», and, of course, «Angel Witch», this album has influenced countless bands and sub genres within heavy metal for 30 years. Two more great albums followed before Angel Witch split up, but the recent years have seen them make a comeback on the live circuit, and it is with great pride we present these reborn legends live at Hole in the Sky 2010.

Secrets of the Moon have for years been one of Germany’s premier black metal-acts, as witnessed by those fortunate enough to attend their show at Garage during Hole in the Sky 2007. Since their last visit they have been joined by acclaimed bassist LSK of Hell Militia/Antaeus/Vorkreist-fame, and released perhaps their strongest album to date; the occult and doomish hymns that constitute «Privilegivm». Secrets of the Moon ensure that Germanic black metal is stronger than ever.

One of the Swedish undergrounds best kept secrets, these Stockholm-based Death Metal-maniacs released a string of acclaimed demos and EPs during the turn of the Century, before calling it quits with the modern classic Epitome of Darkness». As time has grown, and more and more serious Death Metal-fanatics have become aware of these fantastic recordings, Repugnant have decided to reform and perform at Hole in the Sky! Mastermind Mary Gore will be joined by the very elite of the modern Swedish Death Metal-musicians, and we can promise a show that no self-respecting DM-fan can afford to miss out on.
