Extol is finally ready to play in the US again! The band is set to play Furnace Fest in Birmingham, AL this weekend.
Extol, the pioneering death metal band from Oslo, Norway, formed in 1993, gained rapid recognition in the extreme metal scene for their innovative fusion of intricate technicality, and melodic sensibilities.
Over the years, Extol's distinctive style evolved, incorporating elements of progressive metal, black metal, thrash, and avant-garde influences, yet remaining committed to defy genre conventions.
The band’s enduring legacy continues to inspire new generations of metal musicians.
After almost 10 years of near silence, Extol returned with to brand new melodic death metal tracks: LABYRINTH OF ILL and EXIGENCY in October 2023, to appraisal from fans and media alike. The band picked up right where they left, bringing forth passionate, energetic and technical music metal, and are currently working on their next full-length album.
“Labyrinth of Ill has definitely renewed my faith in Extol and our ability to play rock music once again. Who doesn’t wanna go to church when they hear the "Patience" passages play ping pong with Ole's guitar solo? Brutal, but at the same time disturbingly cozy.”
– David Husvik
The original plan was to return to the US last year, but in fate would have it otherwise, and the band had to cancel their planned trip.
As such their show at Furnace Fest this weekend is highly anticipated!
The band is set to play Sunday Oct. 6th , where they will share stage with bands like Norma Jean, Blindside and Underoath.
Don’t miss out on this one!
