Brutal Assault 2025: First batch of bands confirmed for their next edition

With a hangover still in our bodies after the last edition of the Czech festival Brutal Assault 2024, the festival’s organisers are already preparing the next edition of the European extreme competition par excellence, having revealed some names that will be part of the 2025 line-up. Those who attended the festival were able to experience first-hand the bands that will be part of the upcoming line-up, as they were announced on-site by the organisers, highlighting the confirmation of Gojira after their spectacular performance at the Paris Olympic Games.

The rest of the bands confirmed so far are Dimmu Borgir, Ministry, August Burns Red, Angelmaker, Benighted, Between The Buried And Me, The Kovenant, Dope, Obituary, Pig Destroyer, Static X, Suffocation, Thrown and Unleashed. As usual at Brutal Assault, the number of bands confirmed so far once again shows the variety of subgenres within extreme metal that the organisers always handle in their line-ups, with a bit of everything for all tastes.

Brutal Assault 2025 will once again be held at the Josefov Fortress in Jaroměř from August 6th to August 9th, the first digital tickets have gone on sale at a price of €171 and at the time of writing this article, 68% of the first tickets at this price have already been sold.
