Gros drama dans le milieu du metal états-unien après le Metal Threat Fest, organisé du 2 au 5 octobre dans l’Illinois, qui a mis à l’affiche plusieurs groupes phares de la scène néonazie, comme Graveland, Grand Belial’s Key et Arghoslent.

Post Facebook du groupe Dead Congregation
We feel it's time to clarify our position regarding our participation in this year’s Metal Threat Festival, especially in light of recent discourse. Here are the facts:
• This was our third time performing at the festival. Previous editions had no association with politically charged bands and nothing in our past experiences suggested this year would be any different.
• Beyond the festival itself, Metal Threat organized a 14-day North American tour for us. Tours of this nature require extensive planning and coordination over several months, involving local promoters, venue staff, crew, merchandise suppliers and others who invest significant time and resources.
• Importantly, Metal Threat is also our official sponsor for U.S. work visas, which makes them our legal employer during our stay. This means our ability to act independently is limited by U.S. immigration law and the terms of our visas.
• When we agreed to play this year’s edition, we had no knowledge of the controversial last-minute additions to the lineup. By the time those bands were announced, backing out would have led to serious consequences — not only for us but for everyone involved in the tour. These could have included the cancellation of our visas and a potential 10-year ban from reapplying for entry into the U.S.
• Even if we had withdrawn, we recognize that some would still accuse us of acting too late or doing so purely for damage control. In other words, our reputation was at risk regardless of the path we chose.
• Given these circumstances — and the fact that our performance took place on Sunday, a day untarnished by sketchy bands — we made the difficult decision to proceed. Choosing to fulfill our commitments was not an endorsement of other bands’ ideologies.
Let us be clear: we did not appreciate being on the same bill as a handful of NS white power acts. However, when contracts are signed and obligations set in motion, choices become limited.

Post Facebook du groupe Ripped to Shreds
refusing to play with a neonazi band like arghoslent that glorifies the black slave trade is the lowest possible bar and master still failed it by playing metal threat, so we're withdrawing from friday's show at @924gilmanstreet support to @bitterendbooking for doing the right thing and canceling the show. we're still leaving heavy talent, but i would like to clarify that heavy talent only reps sinister, the sinister and master tour was booked as a package, and master booked their show with metal threat directly through paul dunski and not through heavy talent

Post Facebook de Kris Kros
The Nile Theater canceled the Dead Congregation show for tomorrow due to their involvement in Metal Threat Fest. I guess anyone who played the fest is now a sketchy band. C'est la vie.
But we have a backup venue. Share the flyer, spread the word. Also need a sound dude to help out with the gig. Dm me.

Post Instagram du groupe Graveland
After years of struggle and perseverance, Graveland has finally unleashed its sound upon the USA! 🇺🇸⚔️
At the legendary Metal Threat Fest 2025, that night the stage became an arena for the old unholy Black Metal hymns and the pagan war songs of Graveland. 🌑🔥
Our deepest thanks to all who made this journey possible and above all to the Legions of Fans who came to stand shoulder to shoulder with us beneath the banner of Black Metal! 🤘🔥
It was a historic moment for Graveland – the echo of ancient battles and the spirits of our forefathers rose above the stage, and your energy made the flames burn even higher! 🔥🛡️⚔️

researching this area obviously brings dangers & all my fascism researching UON colleagues have had degrees of contact with the enemy, but the current mainstreaming of fash thot & tactics is terrifying. fascists have ZERO INTEREST IN FREE SPEECH, it’s just a pretence and soon abandoned

I’ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa ‘financier.’

I have been forced to move my classes online.

You can't REALLY strip 'everything' else away from this band as they're bigger than the music. But - if you were just left with the music this would still be a grade A, top tier, original and wild music making collective of people who put out some amazing records
