Tygers of Pan Tang is a legendary heavy metal band founded in 1978 in Whitley Bay, England. Along with Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard and Diamond Head, they are certainly the most important band of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement. In their 46-year-long career, they released 13 studio albums, and the last one, Bloodlines, was released in 2023. From the very beginning, the band has been led by the main and original member – Robb Weir, who throughout history gathered around him phenomenal musicians who were also in bands such as Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, Angel Witch, Blitzkrieg, Tank, White Spirit and many others. We are extremely honored to host the iconic Tygers of Pan Tang at our festival!

Gutalax was founded in the spring of 2009 in the Czech city of Křemže. Studio and split albums with witty names like Shit Beast, Shit Evolution, The Shitpendables and Shit Happens! they secured Gutalax the status of porngrind/goregrind champion. Their live performances are filled with various aids that you can find in toilets, and at some festivals the toi-toi booth dances on the tips of the hands of the crazy audience. Prepare your taroguz, because Gutalax is back after 6 long years of waiting!

Tight skin, heavy metal, bloody riffs, beastly howling, all this is synonymous with this heavy metal trio from Croatia that will make you go crazy! Since 2004, Zagreb’s Flesh has been defending the metal faith. Last summer they rocked the region with their phenomenal performances at Exit, MetalDays, Vlajternativa and GoatHell. Journalists write about them that they are proof that heavy metal still lives in our region. Our favorites will perform at the Valhalla MUF festival!
ANAL MANDICA (Metal, Đakovo)
facebook.com/p/Anal-Mandica-Fan-Page-100045429206269
The band Anal Mandica was formed way back in 1942 and, despite its high-quality musical expression, was banned in all countries of South-East and Central Europe for a number of years due to its controversy. In 1946, the band members moved to Zimbabwe and continued their work unhindered in East Africa. However, already in 1948, the band experienced a new collapse. The bass player was eaten by African natives, and his genitals are still found somewhere in the vastness of the Zimbabwean desert. After the tragic event, the members return to their native Yugoslavia and suspend their musical work for a while. It wasn’t until 1954 that Anal Mandica reunited (but this time without the bass player) and continued its activities. Despite the change in economic conditions in the former Yugoslavia, the members do not manage to get the green light to publish their songs, so they secretly perfect their musical creativity somewhere underground, where they conceived their projects until 2003, when they came out into the light of day again and started recording their , so far the first and only album, which was released in September 2004. Anal Mandica’s album was a great success, both from critics and fans. Unfortunately, the band still does not have a bassist today, but we hope that in the near future even this small deficiency will be replaced by some great playing talent. Anal Mandica is considered one of the world’s most influential bands. Their songs, although published only in 2004, were stolen much earlier, so great similarities can be found in the songs of Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Metallica, Immortal, Nargaroth, Mayhem, Miroslav Škora and other big names who gained their fame at the expense of Anal Mandice, whose achievements in one way or another they managed to get hold of and process in their own way. The topics that the band Anal Mandica sticks to are tits. Namely, the gang members saw that after the death of Kurt Cobain, more and more young girls were doing their daily activities without breasts. Surveys have shown that 75% of the young female population today have no or very small breasts, which threatens the survival of the human species and leads to doomsday and the apocalypse. Anal Mandica sees the salvation of humanity in silicone, which today is not only used to strengthen window panes, while the music it creates stimulates the accelerated work of hormones, the secretion of mammary glands, and thus the growth of breasts.
