Scar Symmetry closed @progmetalmania.bsky.social with intense growls and clean vocals, plus razor-sharp guitar work by Per Nilsson. A deserved headliner for a thrilling show. #ProgMetalMania #ScarSymmetry

Aeons, from the Isle of Man, brought tight melodic death-infused prog metal. Top-tier growls, heavy groove, and nostalgic dual-guitar melodies. Huge thanks to @progmetalmania for correcting my mix-up with Sweden’s Aeon—oops! 😂

Soulsplitter was my absolute favorite of the fest! Cinematic prog metal with sweeping forms, expressive contrasts, lush vocals, impressionist piano, classical elements, and stunning musicianship. Their new single preview "Algorithm" is phenomenal! #progmetalmania

John Macaluso appeared as a special guest with his Off the Record project—a powerful drummer with finesse, telling a rhythmic autobiography. A few onstage hiccups only added to the charm. Maybe lightness is a drummer’s greatest strength! #progmetalmania

Turbulence is a prog metal band from Lebanon with beautifully crafted and balanced structures. Middle Eastern elements are tastefully woven in—especially in the vocals. A modern, subtler take on fusion than Myrath or Orphaned Land. #progmetalmania

F.K.Ü. was anything but prog—pure, classic thrash! 🤘 With heavy horror-movie-style makeup, soaring high-pitched vocals, nonstop pogoing and circle pits, and non-stop “hey hey hey!” energy, it was chaos in the best possible way. Total fun!

Scar Symmetry brought polished Swedish-style melodeath with a hint of pop sheen. Spotless performance—dual guitar solos were flawless, and the two vocalists handled clean/growl duties with ease. But... no bassist on stage? Something felt missing. 😂 #progmetalmania

Progressive doom band Poem from Greece—tight, mature, and emotionally powerful vocals. Complex polyrhythmic sections added a true prog flair. One of my favorite acts across both days of the festival. #progmetalmania

Relentless double kicks and walls of guitar—Xaon is full-blast blackened death metal with some symphonic touches. The vocalist kept the crowd moshing. The closer song ends on a folky twist, with clean vocals that hit surprisingly deep. #progmetalmania

A traditional German prog metal band with a distinctly refined sound. The vocals were deep and elegant (when not screaming)—carrying that stereotypical “German” character in both tone and delivery.

Obsidious: A band spun off from Obscura, and still, firmly in the tech-death realm. The guitars had that classic tight-yet-complex tone, filled with intricate runs and sweeping melodies. The bass even got some solid solo moments—great stuff!

The vibe finally turned darker—Vulkan was one of the my favorite bands of the fest! More post than prog: sorrowful vocals, intricate 3-part harmonies , dramatic tempo shifts, and guitars that avoid traditional tones with textures and walls of sound.

#progmetalmania Loch Vostok: their vocal was classic and stylized—maybe a bit too “old-school”—but solid. The overall sound leans toward melodic death or thrash, with that distinct Swedish flavor.

#progmetalmania Ihlo is a fresh, modern Scottish band blending djent with electronic-infused prog. Tight grooves, dynamic contrast, and perfect rhythmic chemistry—music that moves you, literally. I loved their set and can’t wait for the new album!
