After Kampfar, another big band has been announced for Inferno festival 2014: Watain.Here is the announcement on Inferno's homepage:
“The Swedish black metal band WATAIN is ready to headline one of the nights at INFERNO METAL FESTIVAL 2014. WATAIN has been one of the most talked about bands in black metal this year after releasing their fifth masterpiece, "The Wild Hunt". An album that takes WATAIN a step closer to world domination. We look forward to a tremendous show at INFERNO METAL FESTIVAL 2014.
Swedish Watain was formed in 1998. The band has since then made the leap from the underground to become one of the leaders in today's black metal scene. From underground favorites like "Rabid Death's Curse" and "Casus luciferia", they have now taken the step up to release one of the year's best metal albums with "The Wild Hunt", which has received great reviews from all over the world. Their concert at Inferno Metal Festival 2014 can quickly become one of next year's highlights – so this is not something you want to miss.”
