When they take our stage in 2027, power metal anthems will meet a visual world that runs consistently throughout their work: dark fantasy, sci-fi glamour\u2014and that distinct Berserk DNA, which for them functions not as a narrative but as a genuine core inspiration. Founder and lead songwriter Anton Kabanen has described how some of their songs are directly inspired by \u201cBerserk\u201d (manga\/anime), while others draw on personal experiences and original stories.  <\/p>\n<p>Musically, it\u2019s as melodic as it gets, as driving as it gets\u2014but with a twist that makes them instantly recognizable. BEAST IN BLACK combine power metal with an \u201980s sensibility for hooks and glitz: big choruses, clean lines, guitar riffs that take the lead, and a dramatic structure that makes every song feel like a scene. <\/p>\n<p>And in person, it all comes together: relationships, literature, dark fantasy, science fiction\u2014this range of themes is part of her world.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s exactly why a BEAST IN BLACK set feels like a good movie: The hooks stick with you\u2014and the images keep playing in your mind long after you\u2019ve headed back to the campground.<\/p>\n<p>Reload 2027: This is going to be one of those performances that you don&#8217;t just hear\u2014you take with you.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-2055655639 {\n  font-size: 1.25rem;\n  line-height: 1.35;\n  text-align: left;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div class=\"social-icons follow-icons artist-single-social-icons\" style=\"font-size:147%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/beastinblackofficial\" target=\"_blank\" data-label=\"Facebook\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip facebook\" title=\"Follow on Facebook\" aria-label=\"Follow on Facebook\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bib_band\" target=\"_blank\" data-label=\"Instagram\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip instagram\" title=\"Follow on Instagram\" aria-label=\"Follow on Instagram\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-instagram\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/beastinblack.com\/\" data-label=\"Website\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip website tooltip\" title=\"Follow on Website\" aria-label=\"Follow on Website\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-website\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/bands\" class=\"button primary is-xxlarge artist-single-all-bands-btn show-for-small\" style=\"padding:3px 25px 0px 25px;\">\n\t<i class=\"icon-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>\t<span>All bands<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1489323204 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n  margin-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9199,"parent":6448,"menu_order":10,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9203","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9203","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9203"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9203\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9464,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9203\/revisions\/9464"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6448"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9199"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
