Malmö Metal Madness // Live at Plan B — Malmö

_________________ Malmö Metal Madness är tillbaka. Vanir Forged in Denmark in 2009, VANIR have established themselves as a powerful force in historical melodic death metal, blending crushing riffs, epic melodies and atmospheric arrangements with stories drawn from the bloodstained pages of history. Moving beyond their roots in Norse mythology, VANIR explore the rise and fall of empires, legendary battles, betrayal and the human cost of war. Their music brings history to life through an uncompromising combination of aggression, melody and grand storytelling. With their eighth studio album, Wyrd (2026), released through Mighty Music, VANIR continue their exploration of fate, conflict and the choices that shape our world. Having brought their music to stages across Europe, including Wacken Open Air, VANIR deliver an intense and commanding live experience where history, atmosphere and melodic death metal collide. Vittra Vittra is a Swedish Melodic Death/Thrash Metal band with strong songwriting, catchy hooks and highly energetic live performances! Originally called “Vildvittra”, based on the characters created by Astrid Lindgren as part of “Ronja Rövardotter” (Ronja the Robbers Daughter), their name later evolved into Vittra, inspired by the mythical creatures appearing in Swedish folk stories. And while Swedish folk is a recurring theme weaving in and out of their music, the band is firmly rooted in Melodic Death and Thrash Metal in the veins of At the Gates, Dissection and Megadeth. Founded in 2017 by David Döragrip (vocals) and Johan Murmester (guitar), adding on Alex Smith (drums) and Gustav Svensson (bass) in 2018, the lineup was complete with the addition of lead guitarist Lars Elofsson in 2021. Their sophomore album “Intense Indifference” was released September 19, 2025. Throne of Roaches Hailing from Malmö, Sweden, Throne of Roaches deliver a dark and aggressive blend of melodic death metal and deathcore.
