Enter the Void Festival Vol. 1 Announces Lineup for July
Posted in Whathaveyou on April 16th, 2025 by JJ KoczanWith five bands, Bergen Doom Collective‘s Enter the Void Vol. 1 is starting out manageable with their inagural edition. Set for May 31 in Bergen, Norway, the lineup is mostly crushing, with Morpholith making the trip from Iceland to join forces with Old Horn Tooth (UK) and native Norwegian destroyers Dwaal and Bismarck. Holy smokes. That is four outfits who make a point of their heaviness. You want to be obliterated by volume? Bismarck into Dwaal into Old Horn Tooth into Morpholith. By the time they’re done, you’ll be little more than thankful goo on the floor.
But don’t forget Gjenferd! It’s a different sound and intention, but the up and coming rockers released their self-titled debut (review here) and are also set to appear at Desertfest Oslo a few weeks prior. They bring a sense of movement to the bill for Enter the Void that’s like your departure point as you make your way into the consuming darkness of the following four acts. They’re a counterintuitive fit on paper, but it’ll work on stage to set up a flow from one into the next until Morpholith finally capture the heat death of the universe and everyone goes home to sleep it off. Glorious.
