PREDATORY VOID

As heavy as it gets

Sunday 22 March 2026

Predatory Void emerged from a clash of contrasting backgrounds. Guitarist Lennart Bossu (Amenra, Oathbreaker, Living Gate), known for his atmospheric and introspective sound, began writing harsher, more immediate material during the pandemic. He brought together drummer Vincent Verstrepen (Carnation) and guitarist Thijs De Cloedt (Cobra The Impaler, ex-Aborted), musicians rooted in more direct forms of metal, alongside vocalist Lina R. (Cross Bringer) and, more recently, bassist/vocalist Kris Auman (ENDLINGR).

The result is a volatile blend of styles. Shoegaze, doom, hardcore, black and death metal held together by emotional weight and raw power. It’s a sound as haunting as it is punishing, and one that will resonate with fans of alternative metal’s current vanguard, from Ragana and Agriculture to Thou.

Predatory void’s debut album Seven Keys To The Discomfort Of Being (2023) captured that collision in full force, drawing attention across underground circles. Since then, the band has played Roadburn, Alcatraz, and Rock Herk, and delivered a standout performance at Soulcrusher Festival 2025 that affirmed their place among the most compelling live acts in heavy music today.

With new material set for early 2026, the band enters a new chapter—leaner, sharper, and more layered, thanks to Kris Auman’s dual role on bass and backing vocals. The intensity remains, but the edges have changed shape.
