(Thrash Metal / Germany)
Since releasing their debut album “Have Gun, Will Travel ” in 2010, REZET are known for delivering high-class Thrash Metal with a unique blend and different taste.
The northern Germans‘ successful mix of cutting riffs, pounding grooves, catchy vocals and intelligent lyrics have always made them stand out from the rest of the genre, moving them quickly from the underground Metal scene to successfully conquering stages around the world.
While going through several line-up changes and musical developing, releasing 5 studio albums, 2 EPs and a DVD, REZET have established their name, becoming one of the pioneers of the so called „New Wave Of Thrash Metal“.
Mastermind and founder Ricky Wagner is still going strong together with longtime drummer and friend Bastian „attt” Santen, Lorenz Kandolf (Traitor) and Nikolay Atanasov (ex-Agent Steel), currently working on the band’s sixth studio album, soon to be released.

The band has participated in a number of important festivals in Malta and across Europe, while supporting the likes of Grave, Decapitated, Blaze Bayley, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Memoriam and Pestilence to mention only a few.
As testament to the band’s work ethic and international achievements, in 2019 the band was nominated for the prestigious ‘Best International Achievement’ award by the Malta Arts Council.
Angelcrypt promise to deliver Maltese melodic death metal of the highest calibre accompanied by intense live shows and performances, and given that a number of shows have already been booked in Malta, UK, Germany, Luxembourg, Belgium, Italy, and Greece, this year is certainly shaping up to be another memorable year for the band.

TYPHUS
https://www.facebook.com/typhusmetal
(Athens / Greece / Metal / Thrash / Speed)
Typhus is a metal band from Athens, Greece. Started as Nuclear Terror, the band was formed in 2009, with major influences from bands like Megadeth, Annihilator, Testament etc.
By the end of 2013 they had formed their own Thrash/Speed sound and eventually the band released their first demo.
In February of 2014, the band released its first EP, “Contaminated Salvation”, that received remarkably well reviews from Greek and foreign media.
After some line-up changes the band started working on its first album, while the track “Pride Breaker” from Contaminated Salvation EP was issued for Metal Hammer’s collection about the Greek thrash metal scene.
Having finished with the recordings of their debut album, the band changed their name into Typhus, in November 2019.
The release of the debut album, “Mass Produced Perfection” on 25th September 2020, marked the beginning of a new era for Typhus, where the band pushed the limits and formed its unique style. Storming drumming, high-pitched, relentless vocals, along with earth-shaking riffs were brought together, to create a solid debut for Typhus. Michael Karpathiou at D Studio (Exarsis, Embrace of Thorns, Destroy Them) was the mastermind behind the production and mixing of “Mass Produced Perfection”, adding to the band’s identity, keeping their old-school sound present. The vision was brought in its entirety, with the creation of the album’s artwork, by Par Olofsson (Exodus, Immortal, Unleashed, Revocation etc).
Typhus’ debut album “Mass Produced Perfection” was released via Punishment 18 Records (Italy).
Mass Produced Perfection, equally to its predecesor, receives remarkably positive feedback, adding to the band’s upward course.
Due to unprecedented circumstances because of the pandemic, two European tours with Atheist (Enthralled in Europe Tour) and Suicidal Angels (Winter Aggression Tour), in which Typhus was participating have to be cancelled.
With the return to normality, Typhus takes part in series of important shows in Greece and Europe, with more notable:
– Wacken Open Air 2022 (Germany)
– Riedler Open Air 2022 (Germany)
– Skulls of Metal Festival 2022 (Spain)
In the first half of 2023, Typhus took part in a Balkan minitour with Amken, as well as two shows in Netherlands, as part of the No Sleep Metalfest, along with Macbeth, etc.
Typhus made a loud comeback to its hometown, Athens, on June 25th, in order to support two mighty acts, Ghost and Candlemass, as well as their fellow metal heroes, Rotting Christ.
Typhus’ summer-run of shows was concluded with two successful performances in Croatia and Czech Republic as part of the Goathell Metalfest and Symbolic Festival respectively, prior entering the studio, in order to record their second album.
