London’s Incineration Festival have made their latest announcement for 2025’s line-up. As well as confirming Conjurer and Blackbraid, headliners Tryptikon will play a special set by frontman Tom G. Warrior’s legendary Celtic Frost. We saw them do it at Bloodstock last year, and it was awesome.
“Celtic Frost’s path would have been a very different – likely far more subdued – one if it hadn’t been for the lustrous support the band received from the then largely London-based UK music press from mid-1980s on,” says Tom. “This, along with uncounted crucial musical influences in my youth, was the basis of a lifelong bond between the UK and all of my musical endeavours.
“It is thus with utmost pleasure that we in Triptykon accept Incineration Fest’s invitation to take a break from work on our new album to perform a very distinct Celtic Frost-based concert in May 2025.
“Let’s make this a truly morbid moment before the world finally falls apart entirely.”
Incineration - also featuring Blood Incantation and Spectral Wound, among others - takes place at Camden’s Roundhouse, Electric Ballroom, Underworld, Black Heart and Devonshire Arms on May 3, 2025.
