First time at Basin
In recent years, the Slovak scene has been churning out one genre gem after another, and the Banská Bystrica-based formation GÁGOR is the freshest proof of that. Forget about over-polished studio projects. Gágor brings back to the modern metal underground what it so often lacks – absolute spontaneity, grit, and an uncompromising drive. They describe their own style as "hard violence," which in their execution is an explosive mix where the raw animality of the old-school hardcore scene meets uncompromising crust punk blast beats and the crushing, heavy sludge of death metal.
