The members of this band, a legendary Metal institution from the Netherlands, are innovators that revolutionized Death Metal and altered what was considered as “progressive”. Groundbreaking albums like “Malleus Maleficarum”, “Consuming Impulse “, Testimony of the Anicents” and “Spheres” inspired generations of bands and fans worldwide while taking them on a sonic journey to unprecedented dimensions with every new studio release. The ancient ones are a testimony of the past, intertwined with the present and the future, imitated through the years by many but never replicated. PESTILENCE redefined the genre and we are proud to welcome them at Kaltenbach Open Air in 2019 for an exclusive festival show in Austria.
