Borknagar / Rotting Christ “Devastation On The Nation” North American Tour 2020

Post-Molested Norwegian blackened death metal band Borknagar joins avant-jazz / heavy metal hybrid Rotting Christ for a North American tour in 2020 named “Devastation on the Nation,” including guests Wolfheart, Abigail Williams, and Imperial Triumphant.

BORKNAGAR is Øystein G. Brun (Clean and Electric Guitars), Lars A. Nedland (Keys & Vocals), I.C.S. Vortex (Bass & Vocals), Jostein Thomassen (Lead Guitars), and Bjørn Dugstad Rønnow (Drums). Famous for late-period black metal which combined folk and stadium rock elements with blistering black metal riffs, Borknagar continues this general theme with its latest album, True North, released via Century Media.

Band founder Oystein G. Brun states, “we are truly delighted to be part of the ‘Devastation on the Nation’ tour 2020! The tour we did with EMPEROR back in 1999 was one of our definitive highlights throughout the years, and since then we have longing to get back for a proper tour across the North American continent. Now, that is a reality ahead, and we are so much looking forward to get going with this massive tour on March 19th together with our fellow gunslingers in ROTTING CHRIST, WOLFHEART, ABIGAIL WILLIAMS and IMPERIAL THRIUMPHANT. This will be huge, let’s make some musical history!”
