About the tour
Spiritbox (CA), the new metal sensation of our days, considered the only band in recent years, since Slipknot, that experienced such a rapid ascent will perform for the first time in Romania at ARTmania.
Spiritbox, named after the device believed to be able to speak to those who have passed on to the other world, is the band that amassed 66 million streams before releasing their debut album, further increasing that number to 300 million after the release of their first LP, “Eternal Blue” (2017), which reached #1 on the US’s and Canada’s rock and hard rock charts, peaking at #13 on the Billboard 200.
The renown “Kerrang!” magazine gave this album a perfect review of 5/ 5, calling it “the debut of the year” and reserved its cover for the band, an appearance which was followed by others on the covers of Revolver, Poll Star, Rock Sound or Metal Hammer magazine (which gave a 10/ 10 review and called it “a masterpiece of modern heavy metal music”) and by articles in other well-known publications like Loudwire, Forbes, Billboard, AltPress or Spin. After the debut album whose name was inspired by the eponymous computer virus, Spiritbox released two more EPs, which were well-received by both the public and the music industry, a mashup in collaboration with rap artist Megan Thee Stallion and, this year, received (2024) its first Grammy nomination, in the “best metal performance” category, for the song “Jaded ”
At ARTmania, on the 27th of July, rock and metal enthusiasts will have the chance to meet the ferocious intensity carefully combined with melodic passages, the technical splendour and the deep emotions generated by the unique Spiritbox signature!
