British extreme metallers CARCASS have been confirmed for this year’s Brutal Assault Festival. Reactivated grindcore legends are putting the finishing touches on their first studio album in 17 years with acclaimed producer Colin Richardson. Guitarist Bill Steer said: „People can expect to hear a fairly different Carcass set, the old favourites will in there, of course, but we’re also planning to play a couple of the less obvious tracks from our past, as well as songs from the album we’ve just completed.“
Another confirmed bands are Finnish Viking/folk metallers ENSIFERUM and British melodic death/thrash metallers SYLOSIS.
