The first five bands that are announced to perform on the Dutch Doom Days festival are Hooded Menace (Finland, first BeNeLux appearance), Desire (Portugal), Evadne (Spain), Fall of the Idols (Finland) and Iron Hearse (UK). Former organiser of the festival responds:

“The first announced bands for this year’s edition of the longest running doom festival in the world are again absolutely great. Doom metal is one of the genres with the largest variation of styles and again the festival will present every subgenre the best way possible. Highlights so far are Hooded Menace’s first steps on Dutch ground and the return of Desire from Portugal, one of the best bands to perform on the second edition. The first weekend of November will shake Rotterdam on the downtuned sounds of doom!”

Hammer Of Doom IV - Update

Mit SOLITUDE AETURNUS konnten die Veranstalter einen würdigen Headliner für das Hammer Of Doom 4 verpflichten. Die Band wird eine spezielle Setlist mit vielen alten, schon lange nicht mehr gespielten Klassikern darbieten und der Gig am HOD4 wird ein Einzelgig sein, d.h. es wird keine Shows um das Festival herum geben.
Weiterhin konnten die schwedische Doom Legende SORCERER zu einer Reunion auf dem Hammer Of Doom überredet werden. Neben CANDLEMASS waren sie wohl die beste Epic Doom Band aus Skandinavien und werden am HOD4 zum ersten Mal in Deutschland spielen. Auch die Doom Legende IRON MAN spielen auf dem Festival ihre erste Show auf europäischem Boden:

”It is with great pleasure that Iron Man and it's Management along with the Promoters of Hammer Of Doom IV, are able to make this announcement. We again apologize to the Promoters of DSR and wish them continued future sucess.

To all Iron Man fans in Europe and the rest of the world... the 17 year wait is OVER!

Sincerely,
Michael Lindenauer
Manager for Iron Man“

Line Up:

GRIFTEGARD (SWE)
IRON MAN (USA)
MIRROR OF DECEPTION
SOLITUDE AETURNUS (USA)
SORCERER (SWE)
