VADER Announce REIGN FOREVER April 2026 Australian Tour
Polish Death Metal veterans VADER stand as one of the most enduring and uncompromising forces in European extreme music. Formed in 1983, the band has carved a fearsome reputation through sheer consistency, relentless touring, and a signature sound that fuses razor-sharp aggression with unmistakable hooks and anthemic brutality. Across four decades, they’ve risen from the underground to become an institution—commanding stages across every continent and influencing generations of death metal acts who followed in their wake.
Now, VADER return to celebrate a monumental milestone — the 25th anniversary of their iconic releases Reign Forever World and Litany. These records represent two defining moments in the band’s legacy, capturing their evolution from raw, relentless chaos into a refined, world-dominating war machine.
Originally unleashed at the turn of the millennium, Reign Forever World showcased VADER at their most ferocious and inventive — a crushing mini-album that blended fresh, blistering originals with devastating covers, cementing their reputation as masters of controlled violence and precision riffing. Critics hailed it as “one of the best mini-albums of the 21st century,” and fans embraced it as a cult classic that bridged eras of the band’s sound.
Meanwhile, Litany remains a cornerstone of modern death metal — an album that perfectly balanced speed, groove, and technical mastery. Its thunderous production, blistering drumming, and frontman Piotr Wiwczarek’s commanding vocal assault made it an instant landmark. From the opening blast to the final riff, Litany captured the pure, unrelenting essence of VADER’s power — a record that continues to influence and inspire to this day.
In 2025, the band will honour these two monumental releases with a special anniversary celebration tour, revisiting the albums that defined their legacy and ignited their global domination. Expect a night of pure Polish steel — fast, feral, and forged in fire.
Prepare for total annihilation.
VADER: Reign Forever World + Litany — 25 Years of Chaos.
