The makers of Prophecy Fest are thrilled and proud to announce that US metal legends
Agalloch - The Official Page have agreed to perform their much longed-for reunion show in the original line-up exclusively in the Cave of Balve (September 7 to 9) this year.
When Agalloch announced their split on May 13, 2016, it sent shock-waves through the metal scene around the globe. The American band from Portland, Oregon had released five full-length albums since their inception in 1995. During their exceptional career that led them to perform on stages worldwide, Agalloch had started out closest to the style of black metal, which remained a part of their sound through many transformations. Their genre has been located within folk and doom metal as well as post-rock, and post-metal, which could also mean all of the above at the same time. Yet despite all changes, Agalloch remained true to their recognisable sonic identity. As their disbanding has been felt as a severe loss, the more welcome is today's news of the original band members reuniting to perform selected shows. Their dedicated and large following will hardly be able to wait until Agalloch are returning to stage at Prophecy Fest in the ancient Cave of Balve this September – the perfect place for this occasion where nature, magic, and myth meet with thrilling music!
