This year, all Thrash Metal fans in Europe received a special treat, an early Christmas present: KREATOR & ANTHRAX feat. TESTAMENT. All three bands were in a class of their own that evening – there was no support, only headliners. This evening will be remembered by all thrashers for a long time.

For more than 40 years, AGNOSTIC FRONT brings the finest New York Hardcore to the concert hall stages and festivals around the globe. Europe and its loyal NY HC fan base is a reason to tour annually.
