It’s no secret NÆSTVED METALFEST is growing. This is clearly backed up by the interest and ticket sales for NÆSTVED METALFEST 2024. With today’s announcement of this year’s headliner – Norwegian legends SATYRICON – the festival can now be labeled as Denmark’s largest independent metal festival. SATYRICON, with Satyr and Frost as the spearheads, has existed for over three decades, and throughout time has managed to stay relevant and contemporary. From pure black metal to several alternative takes on extreme metal and most recently an ambitious album with music based on the paintings and art of the countryman Munch. When SATYRICON visits the big Open Air stage in Næstved in August, it will be the only concert in Denmark in 2024 and we look forward to singing along to hits like ‘K.I.N.G’, ‘Mother North’ and ‘Dark Medieval Times’.

In addition to SATYRICON, we offer a good handful of additional bands on the poster. The seven new names are BRAINSTORM (DE), CENTINEX (SE), RED WARSZAWA (DK), NERVOCHAOS (BR), ADVOCACY (DK), AVARICE (DK) & VANIR (DK).

It is important for NÆSTVED METALFEST to show a wide musical spectrum and book bands that the other festivals do not have on their program. Therefore, it is a minor victory to be able to welcome the classic, German heavy metal band BRAINSTORM, which was formed back in 1989, and which has not played in Denmark in almost a lifetime. The same applies in the more extreme part of the metal genre, where the Swedish death-metal pioneers CENTINEX, who were last in Næstved in 1997, return to South Zealand’s capital. All the way from Brazil, we fly in the cult band NERVOCHAOS, who played over 100 concerts in 2023 alone. And from the national latitudes comes the melo-death veterans VANIR to visit NÆSTVED METALFEST for the first time since the festival was first held in 2019. From the Danish growth layer, we welcome progressive metal from ADVOCACY and death-thrash from AVARICE. This year’s party feature comes from RED WARSZAWA, who have promised to make a performance out of the ordinary.
