A small town in the far north of Germany is poised to make its mark on metal history.
That sounds like a familiar success story, but no, we're not talking about Wacken.
In Bremerv rde, right on Lake V rder, a new metal festival is taking place in 100 days featuring e.g. Warlord, Rage, and Victory, as well as ANCIENT CURSE, who have also agreed to compose the festival anthem and release it as a new single today.
Top-notch progressive metal with an anthemic feel!
METAL LAKE - The metal open-air festival on the lake stage in Bremerv rde, Lower Saxony, July 18, 2026
Biography:
The North Germans have been shining with convincing progressive power metal for almost 40 years. With the premise of "breaking new ground" (literally), the band achieved cult status in Cuba in the mid-nineties and were the first western band since the Beatles to actually tour there with their No.1 hit! Even though the band went noticeably quiet for a while, the new album - their second since 2020 - is even more impressive and multi-layered than its predecessor.

The professional standard also applies to the live performance: whether headlining or supporting (Brainstorm, Rage, Victory, Rough Silk, Tankard and many more), Ancient Curse have always managed to captivate the audience with their energetic live show. They also composed the festival anthem for the upcoming "Metal Lake" metal festival!
