London's SAVAGE MESSIAH have been confirmed for this year's Hammerfest, which takes place from March 13th to 16th in Pwllheli, Wales.
SAVAGE MESSIAH will be joining the likes of KREATOR, OVERKILL, SOILWORK, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY and more at the festival, which takes place following the band's UK headlining tour in support of their upcoming new album, THE FATEFUL DARK.
SAVAGE MESSIAH lead guitarist JOFF BAILEY comments:
"We really can't wait to return to Hammerfest again this year! Such a cool vibe there and we've always met killer people and had some real crazy times there! Our new album - The Fateful Dark - is being released on the Monday of that week, plus we'll have just finished a run of headline dates around the UK, so it'll be an amazing end to our first run of shows for the year. Looking forward to getting savage in North Wales with you all again! LETS... GET... HAMMERED!!!"
