Nordic Noise 2026 - erste 8 Bands bestätigt
Nordic Noise 2026, May 14 + 15 + 16. Heavy Metal Rock Festival based in Copenhagen (est. 2013).
Nordic Noise 2026 will run over three days: Thursday, May 14 (Ascension Day), Friday, May 15, and Saturday, May 16. The first eight bands announced include none other than a true legend, Chris Holmes – best known as the legendary guitarist and songwriter from one of the world’s biggest heavy metal bands, W.A.S.P. (get ready to scream along to hits like “I Wanna Be Somebody”, “Wild Child” and “Animal (Fuck Like A Beast)” when H.O.L.M.E.S – The Sound Of W.A.S.P. takes the stage). Two additional international acts are on the bill, both within the melodic heavy rock genre: THUNDEROR from Canada and CAPTAIN BLACK BEARD from Sweden. From the Danish scene, we welcome back the country’s leading speed metal band and crowd favorites STEEL INFERNO. For the first time at Nordic Noise we present thrashers IMPALERS and old-school metal veterans WASTED, while MERIDIAN, with a new sound and new frontman (Søren Adamsen, ex-Artillery), delivers pure heavy metal. Last but not least, BLACK SWAMP WATER, bringing heavy southern rock to the stage.
