Draconian’s grand finale: An unforgettable evening in Kortrijk

On Nov. 17, 2024 Draconian concluded their “30th Anniversary Tour” with a breathtaking performance at DVG Club, Kortrijk. The intimate venue was packed with dedicated fans eager to witness the show. The evening opened with Greece’s Fragment Soul, whose progressive doom melodies set a haunting yet mesmerizing tone. A perfect choice to start the evening and get everyone in the mood. Following them, Nailed to Obscurity brought their signature blend of melancholy metal, whipping up the crowd with raw emotion and precision.

When Draconian finally took the stage, the atmosphere peaked. The band delivered a flawless setlist, mixing classics like ‘Death, Come Near Me’ with songs from their more recent albums. The dual vocal interplay between Anders Jacobsson and Lisa Johansson resonated deeply as their voices wove sad tales of despair and beauty. Every note of Johan Ericsson‘s guitar seemed to carry the weight of three decades of passion and dedication.

The evening was a fitting tribute to Draconian‘s legacy, filled with gratitude and connection. As the final notes ebbed, the audience stood in awed silence before erupting in applause. For those present, it was an evening they will not soon forget.
