Press Release Summary = Metalunderground.com furthers its goal of spreading the word about underground metal by sponsoring extreme black metal festival, Norway’s Hammerslag Festival.

Press Release Body = October 25, 2005, Frederick, MD, United States –
Metalunderground.com announces that it is an official sponsor of Norway’s Hammerslag Festival. The festival, which is to take place on December 16 and 17, 2005, is a two-day showcase of extreme black, death and grind metal bands. Sponsorship of the Hammerslag festival fits with Metalunderground.com’s mission of promoting
underground heavy metal.

The two-day extreme metal festival, in its second year, takes place in Norway’s oldest city, Tønsberg (est. 871). Friday night’s show will be held at Rivals Rockpub and Saturday’s will in an old church built in 1857. The festival boasts more than nine confirmed bands including Tsjuder, Myrkskog, Svartahrid, Grand Alchemist, Framferd, Draugstafur, Mindgrinder, and She Said Destroy with more in negotiations.

“The Hammerslag Festival is the ideal metal festival for Metalunderground.com to announce its first sponsorship deal with,” said Metalunderground.com owner Doug Gibson. “With our large American readership, there is not a more fitting genre of metal to bring to their attention than Norwegian black metal. Every reader that
discovers a new metal band that they like through Metalunderground.com reinforces why I started this website in the first place.”

“Promotion of this event to an American audience benefits Hammerslag Festival, the Norwegian Extreme Metal Scene, and metalheads alike,” said the festival’s organizer, Bjørn Almar Rolstad Johansen. “The bands as well as the experience of a black metal
festival at the old church are quite special as well, considering the theme of the fest.”
