March 3, 2024

Last but not least, a little combo-breaker for our "never played before" rule, as we couldn't turn that offer down:
Délétère from Quebec/Canada will complete the line-up of the 25th anniversary edition of UTBS2024!

Await the Sacrement of perversion! Get your tickets here:

Feb. 29, 2024

With great consternation we had to find out, the long-time friend of our crew and member of our film-team, Jens Meissner passed away.

One of the last shows he filmed was the Nocturnal Demise event at Helvete / Oberhausen. Ortus dedicated this upload to Jens, to make sure he will be remembered.

Here, you can see the full video at the band's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJCY1vApM7I




Feb. 25, 2024

This rather new German band released their debut album AWAKEN THE BLACK FLAME in 2023 and now it's time for their very first live appearance!
Inspired by classic 2nd wave Black Metal, Unhallowed will deliver a raging storm of aggressive songs with melodic guitar works and soul-piercing vocals!

Toward the Abyss! Get your tickets here: https://folter666shop.de/de/advanced_search_result.php...




Feb. 18, 2024

As we always want to find outstanding bands from the underground, this one really convinced us with their release AUS DER TIEFE. We're looking forward to Ortus from Rhineland-Palatinate playing songs of both of their EPs, their debut and their upcoming album on stage at UTBS2024!

In nightly silence - but only as songtitle. Get your tickets here:
https://folter666shop.de/de/advanced_search_result.php...




Feb. 11, 2024

Sometimes, among all the applications we receive, we find some very interesting bands and this is one of them. KILATUS from Malaysia released their debut album THE RETURN AND DARKNESS IT SHALL BE in 2021, and you really should listen to this one - as it's one hell of a ride. And we expect nothing less on stage at UTBS2024!

Enter the Depth of no Rebirth! Get your tickets here:

Attention!
Currently, there is a scammer mirroring our site and creating fake profiles, groups and sites (see pictures). Those are in NO WAY affiliated to Under The Black Sun-Festival, but despite numerous reports to Facebook, said profiles are not taken down.
Please, don't fall for those scam-attempts. There are no fake ticket links/info YET, but that's what we expect the endgame of this guy may look like, as he already is cutting the official ticket-links from copied posts on his site.

Use only the official channels!

Feb. 4, 2024

Founded in Montréal/Québec in 2016, Ossuaire will deliver melodic, raw and powerful Black Metal in the genre's pure tradition. With impetuous vocals, this band heralds a prophetic, anticlerical universe centered around a reversal of religious icons and the power garnered by christianity. So, a lot to see on stage at UTBS2024!

Feb. 1, 2024

Spilled blood at the Shrine of the Dead! Get your tickets here:

Jan. 19, 2024

As Facebook gets weirder by the day, here's a new one:
Earlier today, someone created a Facebook-profile to impersonate UTBS.
Please don't be fooled, the profile shown in the picture is NOT affiliated with us IN ANY WAY. Please, do us a favor and report those scams as they come up before people fall for it!
Thank you.

Good things ahead: a new band announcement is coming this Sunday!

Jan. 14, 2024

Founded in 1991, this one can be truely considered as one of the founding fathers of Norwegian Black Metal. Their album FANDENS KALL from 2023 shows the band's real spirit: aggressive, atmospheric, groovey and honest! Diverse and timeless!
So we're looking forward to: TULUS!

Joerg & Erik




Dec. 24, 2023

Dec. 17, 2023

We are happy to announce a rather vampyric band from Slovakia this time:
KroloK has arisen in 2011 out of a desire to create Black Metal the traditional way it was done in the 90s, rather than following any current trends and their album FUNERAL WINDS & CRIMSON SKY from 2021 proves exactly that!

Who kneel to none and know no sorrow get their tickets here:
