The Abyss Festival is proud to invite you to classic Doom Metal evening with amazing Lord Vicar from Finland and Hexjakt from Sweden.
LORD VICAR – Finnish Doom Metal
Formed in Turku, Finland, Lord Vicar have been delivering uncompromising traditional doom metal since 2007. Founded by guitarist Kimi Kärki in the wake of the legendary Reverend Bizarre, the band carries the torch of classic doom with crushing riffs, thunderous rhythms, haunting vocals and a dark, timeless atmosphere.
After the legendary doom band Reverend Bizarre was laid to rest, guitarist Kimi Kärki founded Lord Vicar in 2007. Vocalist Chritus Linderson (Count Raven, Saint Vitus, Terra Firma, Goatess and more) and drummer Gareth Millsted (End of Level Boss, Centurions Ghost) were recruited immediately. After four full-length albums, a number of splits and singles, and just as many bassists, bassist Fredrik Jansson (Angel Witch, Witchcraft, Count Raven and more) joined the band in 2023, and work began on the fifth full-length album, scheduled for release in early spring 2027.
HEXJAKT – Swedish Doom Metal
Hailing from Sweden, Hexjakt deliver doom metal driven by massive fuzz-drenched riffs, thunderous rhythms and dark, haunting atmospheres. Blending elements of traditional doom, stoner and sludge, they bring a raw, hypnotic heaviness to the underground.
Looking forward to seeing you all there! Stay Heavy!
