Damnation Festival have announced three new bands for this year’s festival!

After announcing Belgian black metallers WIEGEDOOD, who will perform their De Doden Hebben Het Goed trilogy in full, last month, now, three new bands have been announced for this year’s extreme metal festival in Manchester, which will be a 20th anniversary celebration.

Leading the charge in the new announcement is American stoner metallers HIGH ON FIRE whilst UK black metallers CODE and Irish post-rock outfit OVERHEAD, THE ALBATROSS will all perform across the festival this November!

Speaking about performing at this year’s festival, HIGH ON FIRE says, “we’re excited to return to Damnation after 10 years away. We had a blast playing the festival back in 2015 and we’re looking forward to seeing and hearing what this year’s line-up brings!”

CODE adds, “it has been 11 years since we played Damnation and we are very pleased to be given the chance to return and deliver our resplendent darkness. We are looking to unearth some old tracks for the occasion that we haven’t played in aeons so if you want to see CODE at our blackest then be sure to stop by. Thee wayside pastors.”

Damnation Festival 2025 takes place at BEC Arena, Manchester from 8th November – 9th November 2024. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here.
