ANTHRAX
The New York icons barely need an introduction. ANTHRAX is one of the biggest names in the metal world and a part of the “Big Four” (with Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer). The band’s career stretches over four decades, 11 studio albums and includes countless successful tours around the World. On top of being one of the greatest metal acts of all time, ANTHRAX is one of the leading bands in the thrash metal genre today. We can’t wait for ANTHRAX to turn the Borgholm Castle into a “Madhouse”!
DANKO JONES
The Canadian rock trio, DANKO JONES has been described as one of the best live bands in the world. If you’ve seen the band, you know what that means. It’s raw, live music with unrivaled energy that Swedish-loving DANKO JONES like to bring to the Nordics. During their last trip in Scandinavia, they played to sold out crowds and enthusiastic critics in Sweden, Norway and Finland – leaving us starving for more. With their newest album “Wild Cat” released last September, together with other Danko classics such as “First Date” and “Lovercall”, we welcome Danko Jones to Borgholm!
GRAVEYARD
If IN FLAMES are the metal giants of Sweden, then GRAVEYARD are the hard rock heroes. Having won multiple Swedish Grammys and P3 Guld awards, as well as being praised by critics as one of the most interesting rock bands from Sweden, it goes without saying we are incredibly excited for what GRAVEYARD will bring to Borgholm Brinner. Right now the Gothenburg band are working on their fifth studio album. There’s a good chance we will get to hear all new GRAVEYARD material in the most beautiful setting this July at Borgholm on Öland!
