Das legendäre Berliner Label Pelagic Records hat die ersten Künstler für das Pelagic Fest 2026 bekanntgegeben, das am 28. und 29. August in der Muziekgieterij in Maastricht, Niederlande, stattfinden wird.
Mit dabei sind die Post-Metal-Legenden The Ocean, die mit neuer Besetzung und einem bald erscheinenden neuen Album zurückkehren. Das Pelagic Fest 2026 verspricht ein weiteres sensationelles Event des renommierten Labels zu werden.
Neben The Ocean treten auch das Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble für einen extrem seltenen Auftritt, Oh Hiroshima, EF und weitere Künstler auf.
Pelagic kommentiert: „We are excited to share a first glimpse on the lineup of Pelagic Fest 2026 with you. The Ocean will return to the stage of Muziekgieterij with a new lineup and a new album release just around the corner, to inaugurate the next chapter in their journey spanning eleven albums and 25 years of existence. This will be the first show for the European audience and the first opportunity to hear new material.“
„We are incredibly excited to welcome Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble to Pelagic Fest. After ten years of hiatus, the collective reunited this summer for a single Berlin show, which sold out months in advance. The vibe in the room was sublime and full of anticipation, and proved that even after such a long hiatus their music has been all but forgotten. TKDE have pioneered and shaped a musical genre of their own with albums like Here Be Dragons‚ From The Stairwell and the self-titled 2006 debut album. We can’t wait to immerse ourselves in their mesmerizing dark soundscapes.“
„Oh Hiroshima will return to the MainStage of Pelagic Fest with a new album that we can’t tell you more about at this stage, only that it’s coming out before the festival. EF will grace us with their 2025 re-recorded debut album Give Me Beauty… Or Give Me Death! in its entirety. Spurv will be releasing their new album Kelolågen next spring and Lost In Kiev will drop We’re All Going To Be Fine in the summer, and Pelagic Fest will be your chance to watch them perform their new offerings in full. The Devil’s Trade will bring us a full band performance this time, and Predatory Void, Otay:Onii, Zatokrev, Norna, Abraham, Hanry and Preyrs will all make their debut appearance at Pelagic Fest.“
„This is not the full lineup! More names tba.“
„See you in Maastricht!“
