The Maltese doomsters are surely no people who like to rest on their laurels. Less than two months have passed since the last successful edition of the Malta Doom Metal Fest, but the organizing committee, involving both musicians and fans (like Albert Bell of Nomad Son/Forsaken/Sacro Sanctus and Glenn Gauci – here), started quite rapidly working on the next edition, which will be the seventh!

So in the last few days the organization was already able to announce a substantial part of what the juicy bill will be for the Malta Doom Metal Fest 2015.
The festival will take place during October 23rd and 24th 2015 at the by now classic, picturesque location of the Buskett, right in the middle of the woodland occupying the heart of the charming Malta Island.
Here is the comment that officially announced the festival:
“ MDM returns for a mammoth and much awaited seventh edition on the 23rd and 24th of October 2015 with a hard-hitting line-up that should appeal to doomheads and true metallers alike; covering all the shades and hues of doom metal and related genres including epic metal, NWOBHM and early thrash!”
And here is the preliminary list of the bands that so-far confirmed their attendance to the festival (in alphabetical order):
Circle of Witches (Italy) Stoner metal
Facebook
Doomed (Germany) Doom Death
Facebook
King Heavy (Chile) Heavy Epic Doom
Facebook
Marche Funebre (Belgium) Doom Death
Facebook
Mother of Six (Wales) Stoner/alt Rock
Facebook
Stonegriff (Sweden) Doom Metal
Facebook
Void Moon (Sweden) Epic Doom Metal
Facebook
Many more bands will be announced in the next future.
Hence the official website of the festival as well as its Facebook pages should be kept checked out by those who would very much like to experience this highly involving festival again (like me, for example …) or else for the first time! And it won’t likely be the last one …
