Info
Amaranthe lead a night of modern metal at Nöjesfabriken in Karlstad on October 20, 2026. Formed in Gothenburg in 2008, the band built its identity around a three‑voice setup that balances female clean vocals, male clean vocals and harsh parts. Between metalcore drive, melodic death metal accents, power metal energy and a pop‑leaning sense for melody, their tracks play on contrast and precision. From the early Amaranthe and The Nexus era to The Catalyst in 2024, the group has kept refining its mix with a contemporary production edge. On stage, the interplay between Elize Ryd, Nils Molin and Mikael Sehlin pushes the dynamic further, threading melodic lines through riff‑heavy passages and electronic touches.
From Tarragona, Ankor bring a modern sound that folds metalcore, alternative rock and a clear melodic focus into compact, high‑impact songs. First rooted in melodic metal, the band shifted gears across albums, moving to English while keeping Spanish in the mix, and opening up to more progressive structures and electronic textures. With Jessie Williams on vocals since the mid‑2010s, their material like Beyond the Silence of These Years shows a taste for sharp contrasts, from clean choruses to more aggressive breaks.
Swedish band Self Deception completes the lineup.
