Inferno Festival 2013: The label Season of Mist invites itself to Le Romandie in Lausanne for a not to be missed opening night!
After announcing the festival’s program at the DOCKS and at the Château de Chillon, here comes the Romandie, a venue which will welcome the label Season of Mist and two of its top-grade representatives, Hell Militia (FR) and Imperium Dekadenz (DE), Thursday March 14, 2013.
THE NIGHT IN DETAIL
SEASON OF MIST OPENING NIGHT
HELL MILITIA – (FR) Formed in 1999 by experienced hands (Hell Militia shares its members with Arkhon Infaustus & Temple of Baal, among others) the band comes from the French brutal black scene and allows no escape in front of the density of its dark and powerful sonoritites. Their last album, «Jacob’s Ladder» is a model of classical black metal and is marvellously well executed. http://www.hellmilitia.net
IMPERIUM DEKADENZ - (DE) Formed in summer 2004 in Germany, Imperium Dekadenz took their name from a particular affection for the Roman Empire as well as the ancient Norwegian intellectual guides. The Germans will bring their atmosferic melodies and destructing riffs to the Romandie, spreading fire, war and destruction along their way. http://www.imperium-dekadenz.de

THE INFERNO FESTIVAL SWITZERLAND
The first edition of the Inferno Festival in Switzerland was held in February 2011. In March 2012, the Lausanne district of Sévelin lived a memorable second edition which sold out and welcomed more than 2,000 people from all over Switzerland and abroad (Brazil, USA, India). Thanks to Swiss and international headliners such as IMMORTAL and MESHUGGAH, and new collaborations started in French Switzerland (EJMA, Lausanne Tourism Dém'ART, CMA Foundation, Giger Museum) to offer much appreciated lectures and performances, the event took a new dimension.
Besides a definitely metal line up that should thrill all the fans of this style of music (and there are plenty of them in Switzerland!), the Inferno Festival is also a multidisciplinary cultural event in the broadest sense (music, modern dance, photography, plastic arts), open to the world and others. Indeed, each year, exhibitions, performances and lectures are offered to the public, in addition to the concerts performed at the DOCKS. This wish to open up the genres and to take a cultural and social dimension enables the event to appear as a forum dedicated to an extremely creative and dynamic style.
STAY TUNED WITH THE INFERNO FESTIVAL!
