RISE OF KRONOS – Slaves of time Tour 2026

  In 2021, RISE OF KRONOS erupted onto the death metal scene, rising from the ashes of the well-established band Surface. After 11 relentless years of intense touring, three hard-hitting albums and an uncompromising dedication to their craft, Surface reached a turning point. Driven by the urge to evolve and break free from creative boundaries, the band embarked on a transformative journey to push both their music and themselves to the next level. This rebirth was a conscious and carefully considered step. Determined to honor their past while forging a stronger and more focused future, the band adopted the name RISE OF KRONOS - a tribute to their 2015 album and a symbol of transformation, uniting legacy, evolution and defiance under one banner. RISE OF KRONOS stands for a brutal and modern incarnation of death metal, blending the razor-sharp aggression of Swedish death metal with progressive precision and the raw intensity of hardcore. As seasoned musicians, they deliver a sound that is both ferocious and refined - deeply rooted in extreme metal tradition while pushing relentlessly forward. Lyrically and conceptually inspired by Greek mythology and existential themes, the band explores the darker aspects of power, fate and human existence. Their live performances are intense and immersive experiences, driven by crushing riffs, relentless rhythms and an overwhelming sense of force - pulling audiences into a sonic battlefield where chaos and control collide. With their new album Slaves Of Time, RISE OF KRONOS take another decisive step forward. The record delves deeper into themes of time, mortality and enslavement to forces beyond human control - both divine and internal. Slaves Of Time is a darker, more focused and uncompromising release, showcasing the band at their most intense and mature yet. Each track channels urgency, rage and inevitability, reflecting humanity's struggle against the unstoppable passage of time. Slaves Of Time marks a new chapter for RISE OF KRONOS, solidifying their position as a powerful force in modern death metal. With unwavering determination and a sound forged in brutality and precision, the band continues their relentless ascent. Kronos reigns, and time bows to no one!
