Complexity Fest announces its next wave of bands for the 2018 iteration of the festival, its third year.
Expanding to two days, on 23rd and 24th of February 2018, the Dutch festival (located at Patronaat, Haarlem) focuses on the complex, experimental, progressive and adventurous side of heavy music.
The following new acts have just been announced: extreme electronic act BLANCK MASS (Benjamin John Power, formerly of Fuck Buttons), tech-prog rockers VOLA (with a new album coming up in early 2018), deathcore brutalists OCEANO, EMPLOYED TO SERVE bringing their nasty post-hardcore, modern metalcore outfit AVERSIONS CROWN, avant-garde prog-punks POIL and brutal technical death metal band DISENTOMB from Australia.

The announcement follows a highly successful second year for Complexity in 2017, which led to Kerrang Magazine stating:
“They’ve really upped their game, with a line-up of rising stars and heavyweights that go way beyond your average run-of-the-mill Meshuggah worship.”
In 2018 Complexity will consist of a Friday evening (18:00-02:00) and full Saturday (12:00-04:00).
