For the first time, in more than 30 years of existence, Evergrey is performing in Banja Luka with the support of the bands Klogr, Inner Vitriol and Decontrolled! If you are a fan of metal and live performances, this is an opportunity you should not miss.
Evergrey is promoting new album “Theories Of Emptiness” on a big European tour in November and December 2024 through 18 countries, with the support of special guests Klogr and local support Decontrolled. After more than 30 years of existence, metal masters from Gothenburg, Evergrey, have no plans to slow down. The five-piece, led by founder, singer and guitarist Tom S. Englund, released their fourteenth studio album, “Theories of Emptiness”, on June 7th, 2024, via Napalm Records. Without a doubt, the new album represents one of the most dynamic achievements that the band has ever made during their impressive career. “Theories of Emptiness” was produced by Tom S. Englund and Jonas Ekdahl and mixed by Adam “Nolly” Getgood (ex-Periphery), who has worked closely with the band since the beginning, highlighting the vividness of the album’s overall sound profile. Final processing of the album was done by Thomas “Plec” Johansson (Soilwork, The Night Flight Orchestra, Onslaught, The Gems, Eleine and many others).
Since they were formed in 2011, Klogr has performed tirelessly until 2020, conquering international stages and performing alongside bands such as Prong, Limp Bizkit, Guano Apes and Puddle of Mudd. After their last album, “Keystone” (2017), on which Klogr shared the stage with bands such as The Rasmus, Infected Rain and Butcher Babies, the band is finally ready to return with new music and a new tour. In the same year, the band also released a video recording of their intense live performances with special guest Art Kruz. Klogr is ready to ignite European scenes again. In the winter of 2024, they will show their unbridled power and energy, confirming their place on the alternative metal scene.

The debut album “Self Portrait” was officially released on December 1st, 2008. At the end of 2009, the band finished recording the second album called “The Circle”, which was released in 2010 under the label Serbian Metal Portal. In the meantime, the band is very active in concerts both in the region and in Europe. They played as support for bands like: In Flames, Meshuggah, Tthe 69 Eyes, Decapitated, Rotting Christ,# etc. After several years of intensive performance and studio work, the band goes on an indefinite hiatus due to internal disagreements among the members. The band was revived in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in 2020 by its original founder Marko Tica with a new line-up and a new musical perspective. The band’s third album is currently in the early stages of production. With a performance with Evergrey and Klogr, where they will present both new and a good part of old material, Decontrolled officially returns to the scene.
