FORTRESS FEST 2025 [UNITE KINGDOM]

Fortress Fest – 30 May 2025 Perennial Isolation unleash the atmospheric fury of black metal in an unforgettable night [United Kingdom – Scarborough], 31 May 2025 – The 30th of May at Fortress Fest turned into an unforgettable experience thanks to the powerful performance by Perennial Isolation, the acclaimed atmospheric black metal band from Barcelona. With a dark, immersive, and emotionally charged stage presence, the group left an indelible mark on one of the most anticipated days of the festival. The concert, held at the iconic Fortress Fest venue, drew close to 5,000 attendees, nearly reaching the maximum capacity set by the organisers for the day. Anticipation to see Perennial Isolation was high among extreme metal fans, many of whom had travelled from across the country and abroad to witness the band’s return to the stage after a period of relative media silence. During their set, the Catalan quartet delivered a sonic journey through their latest work, including tracks from their critically acclaimed 2021 album Portraits, as well as unreleased compositions that hinted at an even more ambitious musical evolution. Their sound was a symphony of melodic fury, hypnotic blast beats and ambient passages that transported the audience to wintry, melancholic landscapes. Songs such as “Autumn Legacy Underlying the Cold’s Caress” and “The Silent Solace” were met with enthusiastic sing-alongs, while cool lighting and stage smoke helped create an atmosphere of Nordic mysticism. Expectations exceeded The Fortress Fest organisers celebrated the date’s success, highlighting the overwhelming public response and the flawless technical execution of all bands on the bill. Perennial Isolation’s performance, in particular, was considered one of the standout moments of the festival so far, praised by both specialised press and fans alike.
