The first Kill-Town Death Fest was held in 2010 so this years edition is billed as "10 Years of Death". Due to 2015-2018 hiatus it's actually fest number eight, but hey, ten years is ten years. All 36 bands of the lineup has been announced and here's a Bandcamp playlist of nearly all of them in announcement order, some with a quote from the announcement telling why the band is extra special. Even if you won't be visiting Kill-Town this year there should be something to enjoy for any lover of Death Metal.
Like the last years the fest takes place in Pumpehuset in Copenhagen, a venue with small and a larger stage. Expect the small stage to become super crowded for some of the sets.
