Afsky will perform instead of The Ruins of Beverast

Even tomorrow, we won't avoid a schedule change. The Ruins of Beverast will not be performing at the fortress this year due to health reasons, but we managed to secure a great replacement at the last minute—Danish black metallers Afsky. Thank you for your understanding!

Ill Niño will not be performing this year

Ill Niño will not be playing at the fortress this year either, as they were forced to cancel their summer European tour due to family reasons. German band Slope will play in their slot today, and Jaroměř-based death metal band Dysangelium will perform on the Octagon stage in their place. Thank you for  your understanding!  ...

Extreme weather warning

In addition to extreme music, this year’s Brutal Assault won't escape extreme weather either. While we know that a bit of discomfort won't easily shake a true metalhead, temperatures around 36°C are no joke. We strongly encourage you to stay hydrated with non-alcoholic drinks, wear head coverings, limit your time in direct sunlight, and use sunscreen.If you experience any health issues related to the heat, please seek assistance from the medical team. ...

Bands update

We are coming with another unfortunate change - American band PeelingFlesh will not perform at this year's edition due to unforseen personal reasons. We are very sorry and hope to see them at the fortress next year.

Their spot in the line-up will be taken by German slammers Gutrectomy, so a solid dose of the most extreme metal is guaranteed!
