OBSCENE EXTREME FESTIVAL 2025 lineup is heating up, with new bands being revealed every day for the upcoming festival, set to take place from July 9 to 13, 2025.
The latest announcements are bringing even more legendary acts to the stage, promising a lineup packed with thrash, grindcore, and death metal that will push the boundaries of extreme music.
A soundtrack to your decaying corpse being devoured by worms – LARVAE bring their festering blend of raw doom/death and gore-drenched horror to OEF! This Italian/Czech abomination, born in 2020 from the twisted mind of frontwoman Lucilia Sericata, drags you into a suffocating underground nightmare.
Joined by bassist Maso Alastor Desekrator and OEF’s own lost son, Tom Coroner, now back behind the drums, LARVAE conjure a rotting, frowsty atmosphere steeped in morbid doom and grotesque splatter themes. We had to dig deep to unearth this band, but once they hit the Battlefield, the worms will crawl, and the madness will begin!
