Therion
2023 starts with a blast, since Athens welcomes Swedish metalheads Therion. Active since the late 80s, Therion pioneered the symphonic metal sound: their black metal past gave way to operatic vocals and melodic orchestrations and they’ve been going strong for 17 (!) studio albums. Therion draw inspiration from the occult and mythology while alluding to religious themes to create their own dark universe. Throughout the years they have refined their sound and have collaborated with live orchestras on later albums.
Fun fact: Although not listed as an official member of the band, Thomas Karlsson has written lyrics for most Therion albums. He is now the lyricist for Serpent Noir, who open for Therion alongside Greek progressive death metalheads Gentihaa. It’s a metal family business, folks. See you at the mosh pit.
