Cult of Dissolution manifests for the fourth time, bringing returning and new guests to The Black Heart.

Stahlsarg return to Cult of Dissolution, this time at the head of the bill, bringing the first taste of material from their new album — with more still to be revealed. Joining them as main support are London-based Sardinian black/death metal band CogaS, with a set spanning their catalogue from their earliest EP to their latest full-length, Among the Dead: How to Become a Ghost. Ominous Covenant also return, now with a new line-up and their debut full-length, Legacy of the Dead God, released through Wulfhere Productions.

Continuing a tradition from previous editions, Cult of Dissolution once again gives the opening stage to a new band: KosmokratoR make their live debut.

And while the stage upstairs falls silent, Black Meadow takes over downstairs — music at the bar before the first band, between sets and after the last.
