We are bringing a big early Christmas gift with something for everyone!
24.12.2023

Death metal classics CARCASS will return to Brutal after five years. Together with them you can look forward to a proper brutal death metal charge from CYTOTOXIN, grindcore PIG DESTROYER, death-grinders ROTTEN SOUND or gothic UNTO OTHERS. Finnish melodicists KALMAH will dig out of the dark swamps and the riders of the apocalypse in the form of VLTIMAS will also arrive.
A whole bunch of other bands will make their first visit to the fortress - popular industrial goths DEATHSTARS, heavy-rock-metal SOIL, honest and ruthless grindcore squad ESCUELA GRIND, brutally honest SVALBARD, 8-bit computer geniuses MASTER BOOT RECORD and YELLOW EYES with their solitude black metal. Black metal will be continued with folk psychedelia of HEXVESSEL and disharmonics AKHLYS.

We are announcing an exclusive commissioned show at Brutal Assault 2024 – a renown black metal act CULT OF FIRE together with BOHEMIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRAGUE pay tribute to BEDŘICH SMETANA!
02.03.2024

This year, worlds of classical music and black metal will meet for the very first time at Brutal Assault – CULT OF FIRE will play a special set commissioned by Brutal Assault, to pay a tribute to BEDŘICH SMETANA and his works. The band has joined their dark forces with the BOHEMIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRAGUE, led by Martin Šanda, and this expanded group of musicians will deliver an experience not yet seen at Brutal Assault before – and rarely elsewhere.

Year 2024 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of one of the biggest composers in the history of Czech classical music. BEDŘICH SMETANA, born on 2 March 1824, rightly earned a special place in the hearts of his contemporaries and generations that followed. And his music and his passion for the Czech culture have helped pave the path for the Czech modern era nation.

More than a century and a half later, an extreme metal scene started forming in what was still Czechoslovakia. A handful of bands planted seeds for what would later become part of the so-called second wave of black metal. True to this tradition, CULT OF FIRE have picked up the torch of the black flame and become one of the very few internationally known metal bands emerging from the homeland of Brutal Assault. By now, they have brought their music and visual experiences to most continents of the world, and have grown into a headlining act for many special events.

This unique performance will exclusively feature new music by CULT OF FIRE, directly and indirectly inspired by BEDŘICH SMETANA. While you may have seen black metal bands with symphonic orchestras before, you have not seen one at Josefov Fortress yet. It’s important to note that this is not a usual concert of a metal band playing their own songs with orchestral arrangements. This is a commissioned piece of music, written by Vladimír Pavelka (CULT OF FIRE) and arranged by Martin Šanda for the band and BOHEMIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRAGUE, paying homage to a classical composer – either by directly reworking BEDŘICH SMETANA’s music, or writing their own music inspired by his works. This performance may as well become the fastest one in the history of the BOHEMIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRAGUE (or any other such metal-meets-symphonic collaborations on that matter), as CULT OF FIRE bring their fury along with the passion for one of the greatest composers in the Czech history.

This special project is poised to become yet another milestone in the history of Brutal Assault. One that has to be eye-witnessed.

Line-up Puzzle
09.05.2024

Even this year's BA has not avoided line-up changes. We've done our best to live up to our reputation and replace artists who, for various reasons, cannot make it with other names of equal renown. It took quite an effort to confirm the replacement acts, but we are very happy to welcome them to our ranks.
After MY DYING BRIDE cancelled their participation at festivals we subsequently re-opened the discussion of their reconfirmation which, unfortunately, turned out to be out of possibility. But now we can present the iconic doom masters CANDLEMASS!
PIG DESTROYER had to cancel their participation due to logistical reasons and we hope to bring them back next year. As their replacement, CEPHALIC CARNAGE will exclusively fly out to Europe to play not just one, but two sets! First, a celebration of the 20 years of ANOMALIES and second, a cross-section of their work. Pure Rocky Mountains hydro grind elitists right in your face - do you know the reptoids from Denver?
Below is a list of other changes in the line-up. Our apologies go to all those of you looking forward to seeing one of the cancelled bands, but we hope the newly added bands will make it up!
Stay tuned for the day schedule in the upcoming days...

ACID ROW

We are slowly unveiling this year's accompanying programme: Moments of Silence
28.06.2024

The exhibition of black and white photographs by Miroslav Hlinka from the series Moments of Silence will take you into the mysterious world of ossuaries. They will take you to places that are both accessible and normally inaccessible, and that bring you closer to the phenomenon of ossuaries, which were once quite common in European culture. But this is not just a photographic documentation of places that are slowly disappearing today. Thanks to the play of light and shadow, the images have a deeper, artistic overlay. The author captures the ossuaries with sensitivity and allows their atmosphere to affect the viewer. The exhibition not only reveals their unexpected and somewhat unconventional beauty, but also invites us to reflect on the age-old message of "memento mori".

František Štorm brings Endemic Monsters to Brutal Assault
19.07.2024

This year's next exhibition, entitled Endemic Monsters, a somewhat mysterious and slightly scary title, will showcase the art of František Štorm, an outstanding painter, typographer, graphic designer and musician (Master‘s Hammer). But no monstrous and dangerous monsters await us in the exhibition. Instead, the artist’s boundless creativity has escaped into the fascinating world of endemic creatures, endangered species of animals or plants whose uniqueness lies in the fact that they are always found in only one place in the world - whether in reality or in the author's imagination.
