They played as local support for PHILLIP BOA back in 2006 and in 2007 with POLARKREIS 18 at “Radio Sputnik Festival Stage” Just a little breakdown of a band that even though they can look back on a rather short history as band have caused a stir already and in October will put out their second album ‘The Definition’.Source: Newsletter

Founded in 1993 by Shagrath, Silenoz, and Tjodalv and named after unusually shaped lava fields and rock formations east of Lake Mývatn in Iceland, Norway’s DIMMU BORGIR made their debut into the underground metal scene via unofficial rehearsal cassette tapes in 1993. Inspired by incarnations of black metal from the ‘80s and ‘90s and inspired by the works of classical composers such as Wagner and Dvorák, the band’s music was resplendent in its raw & melodic vocals, somber guitar work, destructive drums, and haunting keyboard melodies. Less than a year later, the band recorded their full-length debut, For All Tid, to wild acclaim.- Details

The single day Blitzkrieg event was conceptualised as a poster action (night postering of Trbovlje), a concert of anarcho-industrial music (featuring Laibach, Kaos and Berlinski zid) and as an exhibition of paintings, collages, graphics and short films (Ausstellung Laibach Kunst).- Details
