First bands announced for Dublin’s Perverting The Innocent fest

The first four bands to appear at this year’s instalment of the Perverting The Innocent one-dayer have been announced.

This year’s event takes place on Saturday September 12, once again at Fibber Magee’s in the heart of Dublin.  Confirmed to play so far are German death metallers Chapel Of Disease and Casket, both of whom will be making their first appearances in Ireland, as well as Dublin’s own blackened death dealers Syphor and Limerick progressive metallers Shardborne, with six more acts to be announced in the near future.

In addition, organisers JD Metal Promotions are adding a pair of feeder gigs to this year’s fest.  Warm up shows will be held in Galway and Cork on the Thursday and Friday, featuring some of the headline acts, before the main ten band extravaganza on the Saturday.
