About
Abbath Doom Occulta is widely regarded as one of black and extreme metals mostprominent frontmen. For nearly three decades he helmed one of the most in9luential metal bands ever to emerge from Norway - Immortal.
With his characteristic voice, signature guitar riffs and undisputed talent as a stage performer, the charismatic singer helped spearheading the Norwegian trio from local clubs to the biggest festival stages in the world.
From the early beginnings with albums such as “Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism” and “Battles in the North”, to chart toppers “At the Heart of Winter” and “Sons of
Northern Darkness”, Abbath has through his work with the group left a major imprint on the worldwide phenomenon that is Norwegian Extreme Metal.
This year will see Abbath embark on a second leg of the 'Return to the Raven Realms Tour', including stops in the US and Canada, before returning to Europe for a new string of festival and headline dates.
The set will revisit Abbath's past and pay tribute to the legacy spanning the years 1992 - 2009, performing a carefully selected set of old fan favorites and iconic metal anthems.
‘Return to the Raven Realms Tour’ is framed by the most spectacular stage show Abbath ever has undertaken in his nearly 40-year long career.
"He delivers an utterly glorious, perfectly-crafted heavy metal show and no one leaves without acknowledging that he’s a fine musician indeed. Every note of his famous toad-croak rasps your ears exactly as you’d hope; and every tremolo flurry is as tight and distinct as you’d expect."
- Echoes and Dust
"I can’t wait to get back on stage this summer to perform some old favorites that I haven’t played for a long, long time. Mark my words – It’s going to be loud and epic! "
