NOCTEM BIOGRAPHY

2001

Noctem consolidates as an extreme metal band in April 2001. The band defines its ideals, based in the antithesis of the whole absurd human religions, misanthropy and cult to former civilizations, violence, destruction and death.

2002

2007/ 2008
After the departure of two of their most ancient members a restructure takes place in the band to later on, release the record of the mcd “God Among Slaves”. With the release of this work and the big success among the online press and metal heads, the band, with its new components, fulfills different tours through the country accompanied in the Spanish stages by foreign bands…

NIRNAETH BIOGRAPHY

Nirnaeth became an essential of the French extreme metal scene with a devastating Black Death Metal.

In 2002 Yamaël (drums) joined Mutill (guitar) and Malaria (bass). After a long search Zigouille (voice) will complete the line up fall 2003.

Nirnaeth since then has shared stages with bands like Nunslaughter, Necrodeath, Negura Bunget, Panchrysia, Gorath, Handful Of Hate, Asmodée, Merrimack, Vorkreist, Lord, Otargos ...
From his two previous recordings, "Nothing But Ashes" (2004 demo / sold out) and "Thrown Athwart The Darkness" (full length 2006 / Great Dane Records / sold out), Nirnaeth has imposed its own style. Incisive, brutal and effective, the titles of the band have received unanimously positive opinions from the specialized press and fans.

In June 2008 Mutill obtained an endorsement from Laboga (Motorhead, Behemoth, Annihilator, Hate Eternal, etc.).

"Splendour Of The Abyss" (Great Dane Records, december 2009) is the second full lenght of Nirnaeth. Recorded at Studio Midnight, "Splendour Of The Abyss" is more organic, more morbid and more intense.

PORTUGUÊS:

UM FESTIVAL QUE CHEGOU PARA FICAR!
A ‘dar cartas’ desde 2010, o Santa Maria Summer Fest (SMSF) já provou que é um dos pontos de passagem do underground da música extrema nacional. Situado na pequena cidade de Beja, o festival ajuda a promover este tipo de cultura na vasta região do Alentejo. Começou no ano 2010 como nome de Anibeja Metalfest, uma pequena edição com 4 bandas que foi bem recebida entre as pessoas da cidade, e rapidamente cresceu para algo maior. Em 2011, o festival mudou de nome para o actual e desde então que se tem revelado uma excelente oferta no nosso país, apresentando a cada ano uma diversdade eclética de bandas dentro do Metal, Rock e Punk, sempre com o bónus de ser um festival para todos (até 2013 com entrada livre). Em 2013 a afluência foi surpreendente, com a adição de bandas como DOOM (UK), PROCESS OF GUILT, VxPxOxAxAxWxAxMxC (AT) e GWYDION, o Anfiteatro Exterior da Casa da Cultura de Beja esteve muito bem composto, apresentando uma excelente moldura humana (praticamente cheio no dia em que actuaram os DOOM). O festival não tem quaisquer fins lucrativos e apresenta uma causa social adoptada desde a sua 2ª edição: primeiro de apoio às associações da cidade de Beja, e em segundo lugar o apoio à Cruz Vermelha Portuguesa e a outras instituições locais. Em 2014 a organização promete um cartaz sólido, diverso e certamente extremo!

CULTURMAIS – A ASSOCIAÇÃO JUVENIL QUE ORGANIZA O SMSF
Durante as suas 4 primeiras edições, o SMSF foi organizado pela Junta de Freguesia de Santa Maria da Feira de Beja, porém, na sua 5ª edição, a organização ficará a cargo da Associação Juvenil CulturMais, criada propositadamente tendo em vista a continuidade do festival. A CulturMais tem como fim a promoção e divulgação de eventos culturais, nomeadamente música, cinema, teatro, exposições, etc., relativamente aos quais juntará uma vertente de apoio social a diversas instituições, sendo a sua área de intervenção predominantemente Beja, podendo contudo estender-se a outras zonas do distrito e até do país.

O FESTIVAL DE MÚSICA PESADA ONDE A TROIKA NÃO MANDA NADA OU O FESTIVAL ANTI-CRISE / ANTI-TROIKA – UMA REFORMULAÇÃO
Simpáticamente, os festivaleiros atribuíram estes epítetos ao festival. É pois intenção da organização que os mesmos continuem a fazer sentido, contudo, se por um lado se corre o risco de os apoios serem menores, por outro, a qualidade do cartaz, bem como de tudo quanto envolve o festival, vai aumentando. Logo, os custos acrescem. Por esses motivos, a organização fixou um preço de bilhetes altamente competitivo e relativamente ao qual ficarão agradávelmente surpreendidos. Estes preços serão anunciados em breve.

ENGLISH:

A FESTIVAL WITH HISTORY! IT CAME TO STAY!
Born in 2010, Santa Maria Summer Fest (SMSF) has proven itself to be one of the main festivals in the Portuguese Extreme Music Scene. Located in the small city of Beja, the festival helps promote the extreme music culture in the vast region of the Alentejo. It evolved from 4 bands in its first year into something much bigger, with 19 bands being present in its 4th edition. Its first year had the name of "Anibeja Metalfest", but on its second edition, the name was changed to Santa Maria Summer Fest and since then it has been revealing itself to be an excelent offer in Portugal, presenting itself each year with a vast, ecletic choice of bands within the Metal, Rock and Punk genres, always with the bonus of being economically available for just about everyone (with free entrance up to its 4th edition). In 2013, Beja was full of people coming to the festival, with the presence of bands such as DOOM (UK), PROCESS OF GUILT, VxPxOxAxAxWxAxMxC (AT) and GWYDION, the SMSF venue was packed, especially in the day DOOM played. The festival has no means to proit, and since its 2nd edition it has been supporting social causes: firstly, support to local
associations and secondly, support to the Portuguese Red Cross and other social institutions. For 2014, the SMSF Crew promises a solid, diverse and certainly extreme bill!

CULTURMAIS – THE YOUTH ASSOCIATION THAT ORGANIZES SMSF
During its first 4 editions, SMSF was organized by the local municipality of Santa Maria da Feira, Beja, however, on its 5th edition, the festival will be passed onto
the CulturMais Youth Association, created in view of giving continuation to the SMSF legacy. CulturMais has the objective of producing and promoting cultural events, such as music, cinema, theatre, exhibitions, etc., to which a social cause is added. Its main area of effect is Beja, however, CulturMais also extends itself to other areas of the Alentejo region and even of its country.

THE ANTI-CRISIS FESTIVAL – A REFORMULATION
The SMSF festival-goers have named the event as the “Anti-Crisis Festival”, due to its free entrance policy. It is the intention of the organization that SMSF continues to be the “Anti-Crisis Festival”, however, on the one hand, they have the risk of the monetary support being less every year, and on the other hand, they want to make the festival’s quality grow bigger and bigger, so the organization has decided to have friendly ticket prices in the 5th edition, relatively to which the festival-goers will be satisfied. Those prices will be announced soon.

HATE BIOGRAPHY

Considered as one of the leading extreme metal acts coming from Poland, HATE have endured quite a few lineup shifts during their career, with founding singer/guitarist ATF Sinner being the only constant member. HATE started in 1990 as four-piece playing straight uncompromising death metal, which later developed into a more elaborate form containing industrial and ambient elements as well as distinct black metal influences. In the first half of the nineties, HATE issued several demos (Abhorrence - 1992, Evil Art - 1994, The Unwritten Law - 1995) before releasing their first full-length record - "Daemon Qui Fecit Terram" in 1996 on a Polish label Vox Mortiis. The record demonstrated great potential of the group, presenting ferocious death metal with obvious influences from American acts like Morbid Angel and Deicide. Two years later HATE released another album titled "Lord Is Avenger" (1998), which is considered as highlight in their early years. It was the group's first material distributed outside their native homeland of Poland. The next record "Cain's Way" (2000) showed further development of the band and gained good reviews in the metal press. The album had also its premiere in the USA on World War III/Mercenary Musik, but poor distribution and promotion made it a relatively unknown record.

The first breakthrough in the band's career came along with signing a record deal with French-based label - Listenable Records in 2002. One year later HATE released their highly acclaimed album "Awakening of the Liar" (2003), which is considered the essence of the band's early style. The material demonstrated socalled Polish death metal at its best and gained the band rave reviews in the metal press. A year later HATE recorded their first official audio-visual material - a DVD titled "The Litanies of Satan", which had its worldwide premiere on Metal Mind Productions (2004). It was the moment when the band's style gained new musical characteristics and a kind of black metal vibe. This was fully developed on the next album "Anaclasis - A Haunting Gospel Of Malice & Hatred" (2005), which no longer presented traditional death metal, but ingenious combination of death and black metal with distinct industrial influences. The album's fierce brutality and innovative approach constitued HATE's new style. "Anaclasis" got great reviews in almost every metal magazine across Europe, and was highly acclaimed among metal fans.

In 2006 the band hit the road supporting Carpathian Forest and Keep of Kalessin on their European tour, and performed on a few prestigious live events such as Party.San Open Air and Winter Assault. Supporting their countrymen Decapitated, the band once again went on a European raid, and soon their after, HATE invaded 10 major cities on their headlining tour in Russia.

In January 2008 the next album "Morphosis" had its worldwide premiere - again on Listenable Records. It showed fast development of the band's style as well as the production part. The record was a logical follow-up to "Anaclasis", but sounded more massive, varied and again - innovative. This also marked the point in their career when HATE received offers to play at numerous festivals throughtout Europe, such as such as Metalcamp, Neurotic Death Fest, Brutal Assault, Screamfest, Metal Mean, Summer Breeze etc. In May 2008, HATE recorded their first official video-clip for the song "Threnody" which was shot in a real coal mine in Silesia/Poland. The band hit the road again in February of 2009, and for the first time they were headlining a European tour on their own. The same year HATE also invaded Brazil to headline a few shows, and soon afterwords toured Europe again in company of Blood Red Throne. In november 2009, the band visited Mexico for the first time to headline 9 concerts. Throughout all that, the musicians already started writing new material which was planned to be recorded later the same year. In January 2010 the unstoppable force of HATE went on another rewarding tour, this time accompanying Incantation on a long series of shows across Europe. And only a few months later the band flew across the Atlantic to play their first ever US tour, supporting Hypocrisy and Scar Symmetry.

Just a few days after arriving back in Poland, the musicians entered Hertz Studio in Bialystok to start recording their next album titled "EREBOS". This new masterpiece was completed in only five weeks' time and promises to be the strongest HATE album thus far. Ferocious, challenging, complex, varied, innovative, and extremely well-produced - EREBOS - is HATE in full-swing! The album is set to be released in Europe in November 2010, and in the USA in January 2011 as an extended version containing a few additional live tracks. Once again, supporting Decapitated, HATE will venture on a tour through Poland in October of 2010. In November, the band will tour Russia and Ukraine, and plans to return to North America in early 2011 are well under way.

Until then prepare to HATE and "Taste my Blood From a Thousand Cuts"!

HATE's line-up:
ATF Sinner
- Guit, Voc.
Destroyer - Guit.
