Singer Kateřina will show that even on our domestic stage there is a female growl aka Jinjer. Another band is Brno melodic death Amorgate. We will stay with death metal, because the line-up is supplemented by coarser grain death metal performed by Bestial Theraphy. Postea will bring excellent variety.
