The first few bands for the Dutch Doom Days 2008 are announced. Amongst others Worship, Skepticism and Pantheist will perform on this years festival. Previous editions made the festival one of the most important events in doom metal, the bill was a nice blend of both young talented bands as well as doom veterans.
This year the festival will take place on October 25th and 26th and will offer fifteen bands a stage. The first bands that are announced to perform on the Dutch Doom Days festival are Worship (Germany), Skepticism (Finland), Pantheist (UK), Fall Of The Idols (Finland) and Ophis (Germany). In the right Dutch Doom Day-tradition some new Dutch talent will be presented as well. In the following weeks more bands will be announced. Pim Blankenstein, founder and organiser for the first four editions: "The first names for the 7th annual Dutch Doom Days are of some high calibre bands. Every year we try to bring the best of the doom genre without repeating ourselves and giving the fans the chance to see bands perform and perhaps even discovering new acts. Expect an apocalyptic weekend in October!"
