After 18 years in rock, Bombus has never played Musikens Hus - until now. The band celebrates its "creamy and tough rock era" and the 10th anniversary of the album "Repeat Until Death" with a full weekend event. As a bonus, their self-titled debut will be reissued on vinyl soon.

Friday 20 November - special guests: Mass Worship
A Stockholm-based metal band that creates a new kind of heaviness in Scandinavian metal sound in a genre-transcending way, where classical and technical death meets progressive doom/sludge with punk attitude.

Saturday 21 November - special guests: Troubled Horse
The original rock heroes of Pennybridge! The band hasn't played Göteborg in eight years and has barely been seen in five - except for one show back home in Örebro. Their two albums Step Inside (2012) and Revolution on Repeat (2017) have put them on the map among rock fans worldwide. The connection to Bombus is simpler than you might think: at least one member of Bombus has played in Troubled Horse.

Support both days: Draconian Descent.
