SADISTIC DRIVE is a murderous five-headed death fiend from Joensuu, excreting Death Metal with influences ranging from a hammering Cannibal Corpse style to the Autopsy-like slime gurgling. The band was formed in 2018 by Jusa Janhonen and Niklas Heiskanen as a deranged two-man cellar experiment. 

This great name hides an equally great trio of Italian stallions playing absolutely furious grindcore with the power of fresh radioactive waste!!! 

As every year at Obscene Extreme, but also in the area of the Battlefield there are small changes. There will be a few changes in the OEF 2025 program. 

This Dutch outfit has already appeared on the OEF stage once before, when they broke onto the scene with their killer debut "Feasting on Blood" in 2000. Since then, maniacs clubbed together from scraps of names of other notable, local bands with a love for death metal have been melting this hard metal into beauty. 

Emerging from Ravenna, Italy, SLUG GORE is a relentless Death/Grind force, blending the raw energy of Death Metal, Grindcore, and Hardcore
 with the eerie atmosphere of classic B Horror and monster flicks. 

Belgian SCHIZOPHRENIA!!! Absolutely without a doubt one of the hardest working underground bands of today, constantly touring and active in the field of their recordings, and incredibly sympathetic guys. 

FULCI is an Italian death metal band that pays fierce tribute to the
 Godfather of Gore, Lucio Fulci, blending bone-crushing riffs with
gore-soaked lyrics inspired by his cinematic legacy.

A flood of the most vicious rectal smegma is rushing to Trutnov's
 Battlefield. 

Doctors Without Borders save lives in more than 70 countries around the world and this year we supported them with a record amount of 307.023,- CZK (approx. 12 281 euro), which makes us really happy!!!

For all fans of weird, experimental, but still fucking hard music, here is a real treat!!!  Old masters of "weird riffs" DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA will come to OEF!!! The trio, which was founded in 1987 and was at the origin of the extreme metal scene in our southern neighbours, Austria. 

from the end of the nineties as a grinding project of Dutch and Belgian musicians. After some time, this project went silent when the guys formed the band F.U.B.A.R., but after more than twenty years, I SCREAM PROTEST! is getting back together in the trio of Bas, Mark and Paul to breathe new energy into the project and believe me, it's worth it!!!

Hell of a blast coming from Sicily!!!! ERASER is another great discovery for OEF 2025. The four grind mafiosi have been around for ten years, but only now have they come to our attention. 

CADAVERIC INCUBATOR was formed in 2005 by Necroterror (bass/vocals) and Humiliator (guitar/vocals) with the help of various drummers who came and went during the band's first incarnation, which lasted around two years. 

Everything has a beginning and an end. This almost "home-grown" band has played at Obscene Extreme at least five times, not only at Battlefield, but also at the American version of the festival. It is none other than the well-known French grinders INHUMATE!!! 

This ultra-brutal machine from the land of the rising sun will come to the Battlefield for the third time after several years!!! It is none other than the band of the great enthusiast and collaborator OEF Naru and his BUTCHER ABC ensemble!!! 

"Slowly We Rock" these veterans say about themselves, but it's not entirely true. MASSGRAV from Sweden are on fire!!! Minute-long burnouts at hellish speed with an admixture of great catchy riffs and melodies. This is exactly what MASSGRAV is and for the third time they will prove it to us at the Battlefield!!!

One of the very first Spanish Death Metal bands, UNBOUNDED TERROR was formed in 1991 in Mallorca by Vicente Payá. By the end of 1992, the band released their debut album, widely considered the first Death Metal record in Spain, titled "Nest of Affliction", still regarded by many as a "cult classic" within the national scene. 

For all fans of furious and high-octane hardcore we have here a real treat!!! VITAMIN X from Amsterdam, Holland are the true pioneers of the second wave of this energetic style. 

This five-member gang from our antipodes is called KING PARROT and its specialty is razor-sharp hardcore, slightly mixed with other extremes like grindcore or thrash metal!!! 

For the second time this true old school legend will visit Battlefield. It's none other than German thrashers DARKNESS!!!
