DARKNESS PREVAILS METAL FEST 2025

DARKNESS PREVAILS METAL FEST 2025 (V.C. INC presents)
Columbus, Ohio: A evening of Darkness and Macabre madness awaits you February 15th at WITCHLAB LOUNGE. A true, intimate underground festival set place in an Occult-inspired venue. Featuring notorious bands in the Metal genre, that all will unleash total HELL!

Satanic Death Metal veterans ACHERON is headlining the fest. The band broke up in late 2018 and is doing its first show in 6 years. This will be the debut appearance of ACHERON doing their worldwide 2025 “GOD CAN’T SAVE YOU” limited shows. A band once a part of the legendary Tampa Death Metal scene in the '90s (MORBID ANGEL, DEICIDE, OBITUARY, NOCTURNUS, etc.) put out several albums from 1992 till 2014. ACHERON’s unique style of Old School Satanic Death Metal had left a nice infernal scar on the world. And this show will be a special setlist of music from their 1992 album RITES OF THE BLACK MASS and 1996 EP ANTI-GOD, ANTI-CHRIST.

MORDANT RHED, the Black Metal maniacs from Houston, TX, will also make a special appearance. Known for their original style of Black Metal blended with the Old School underground, the band’s YOUTUBE channel is very popular. Doing only limited shows, MORDANT RHED is promoting their new album EAT PUSSY FOR SATAN on GOAT THRONE RECORDS.

SATHANAS from Pittsburgh, PA, are underground legends who have been around since 1988 and have been putting out solid albums for years. A great mix of Black, Death, and Thrash sounds. Promoting their new album INTO THE NOCTURNE on MORIBUND RECORDS.

VINCENT CROWLEY, who like to call themselves the “Musical Horror Experience,” plays Macabre Horror Metal that embodies Heavy Metal and Doom with a touch of Death. This band’s new album, ANTHOLOGY OF HORROR, features ACHERON members and is now on HAMMERHEART RECORDS.

CHURCH, one of Columbus’ most brutal Death Metal bands, will be joining in to start off the fest. A great band of hungry musicians that will kick your teeth in! The band has four amazing demos.

JDAWG (Justin Horval) will also have a special appearance from HELL'S HEADBANGERS and DEAD BY DAWG channel on YOUTUBE.
