We are delighted to confirm Malta's veteran doom flag-bearers FORSAKEN for this year's edition. The show will feature new tracks from there upcoming album Pentateuch Vol.1...an epic doom album to end all epic doom albums!!
Also, French heavy doom maniacs CHILDREN OF DOOM are added to the lineup. Prepare for some heavy 'booze-fuelled' doom!
The last band to complete the MDM 2012 lineup are Spain's Doom/Death metallers from EVADNE. Fans of Officium Triste, 11th Hour and other bands of that ilk, will love this band. Their latest album 'The Shortest Way' has been produced by none other than the legendary Dan Swano (Edge of Sanity, Nightingale, Bloodbath etc).
Soon tickets will be made available for pre-order from our official website.
