Mystic Festival has added four new bands to its lineup for 2026. The additions include Fulci, Eihwar, Soilent Green, and Der Weg Einer Freiheit.
Fulci is a band paying homage to cult giallo director Lucio Fulci, known for radical and underground cinema. Their music mirrors the brutality of Mortician and Autopsy, with gruesome death metal that embodies Italian horror.

Eihwar is a group blending Nordic legendary drums with folk poetry set against a backdrop of war and battle fury. The duo aims to merge tradition with modernity in their unique sound.
Soilent Green brings the swampy sounds of New Orleans' sludge metal scene, with over three decades of experience pushing genre boundaries.

Der Weg Einer Freiheit is a German post-black metal outfit known for its dark and rage-filled music, with critical acclaim from reviews describing their music as an endless resource of coldness, despair, and controlled chaos.
