The eighth edition of the Malta Doom Metal Fest returns at Chateaux Buskett in Rabat this weekend.

This year’s edition will be headlined by doom legends and old school death metal Elite Vanguards Master.

The festival will also feature Monasterium from Poland, Desolate Pathway (UK), Trinakrius (Italy), Warhammer (Germany), Barabbas (France), Cauchemar (Canada), Bunker 66 (Italy) and Mortalicum (Sweden).

Pure cult prog-folk doom will be delivered by Northwinds (France), the seminal Dutch doom death band Phlebotomized and Brazilian legends Mythological Cold Towers.

Further entertainment will be provided by the stoner doom of Men of Mayhem and Malta Dio’s Disciples.

One of Malta’s leading metal deejays, Toty, will also be spinning an old school metal set.
