Turmion Kätilöt
Finnish metal has a name, and it’s Turmion Kätilöt. 90s disco rhythms, high-speed metal, catchy melodies, choruses… there are no rules. Their live performances are the fiercest chaos you can witness, a true whirlwind of emotions and dances that you can’t miss at the new edition of the Rock Imperium Festival.
Green Lung
A cult band in every sense, Green Lung emerged from the London hard rock scene with their self-released debut EP “Free the Witch,” which explored progressive and psychedelic sounds. Celebrating the folklore, myths, and legends of Britain in their lyrics, they evoke the wild and magical spirit of their ancestors for a whole new generation…
Praying Mantis
True pioneers of the NWOBHM, Praying Mantis has been an icon of British rock for over four decades, offering performances as energetic as they are exciting. Fundamental pillars in the evolution of what we now know as heavy metal, we wouldn’t understand the emergence of so many bands without their existence.
Plini
Virtuosity will come from Australia to Rock Imperium courtesy of Plini, one of the greatest guitar prodigies of recent times. Plini has earned industry recognition over the years for his ability to blend elements of metal, jazz, and ambient music into exceptionally creative compositions. His live performances stand out for his extraordinary six-string skills. He’s…
Marduk
If we talk about darkness, we have to talk about the brutal Marduk. ‘Memento Mori’ is their latest album, one of the best albums of this year, and it shows the great shape of one of the standard-bearers of black metal. Their darkness will invade Cartagena for one of the most intense and brutal concerts…
Einar Solberg
The leader and composer of the Norwegian band Leprous, Einar Solberg, has become one of the undisputed pioneers of contemporary music over the years. His solo release titled ’16’ is a gem to discover, a unique collection of sounds and melodies that we can enjoy live at the Rock Imperium Festival in Cartagena.
Nestor
We had to have them in Cartagena last year, and we couldn’t forget them. Nestor will be at Rock Imperium, restoring the glory of rock and presenting a ‘Kids In A Ghost Town’ that has us hooked. Their performance promises to be one of the unforgettable gems of this new edition of the festival. We…
In Extremo
Formed in 1995, the Germans In Extremo will be one of the festival’s highlights. Their folk metal, which uses traditional instruments like bagpipes and hurdy-gurdy, serves as a perfect pretext for live performances that are both theatrical and intense. Their unique style, reflected in works like “Verehrt und Angespien” or “Sängerkrieg,” has established them as…
Beast in Black
Por último, al ascenso de los finlandeses BEAST IN BLACK, cuya última gira por Europa fue un completo sold out, llega al Olimpo del heavy metal con su enérgica propuesta con la que sin duda van a conquistar la próxima edición de Rock Imperium Festival en 2024.
