Hippotraktor have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with, blending technical prowess with an emotive depth that resonates deeply with fans of modern progressive music. Their live performances are a tour de force, delivering complex compositions with precision and raw power. In addition, they have performed at the prestigious Arctangent Festival for two consecutive years, further solidifying their reputation as a premier act in the progressive metal scene.

Cobra The Impaler, known for their high-energy shows and unique blend of thrash-inspired riffs and epic vocal arrangements, continue to ascend in the global metal scene. Following the success of their 2024 tour supporting Katatonia, and ballbreaking performances at Arctangent and Bloodstock, Cobra The Impaler are set to solidify their status as one of Europe’s rising stars in heavy music.

The Serpent And Colossus tour represents a significant milestone for both bands, showcasing the depth and innovation within Belgium’s vibrant progressive metal scene. Fans can expect a seamless blend of styles, where the distinctive sounds of each band complement and amplify the other’s intensity.
