TOUR OF THE GRAVE
Orden Ogan belong to the spearhead of modern power metal - dark, melodic and technically adept. Classic metal structures meet cinematic breadth and a keen sense of atmosphere and storytelling. In January 2027, Orden Ogan will be coming to Z7 with their new masterpiece "Lords Of The Grave" - and will be bringing along a top-class special guest in the form of Finnish folk metal giants Ensiferum. Bandleader Sebastian "Seeb" Levermann explains: "Although we come from different subgenres, our styles complement each other perfectly. This tour combines epic power, melody and intensity at the highest level - exactly what both bands stand for."
Germany's melodic power institution Orden Ogan is getting the 2027 concert year off to a great start. The new tour kicks off in Munich on January 7, with the new album "Lords Of The Grave" being released a day later. With two consecutive top 3 albums ("Final Days" and "The Order of Fear"), an almost completely sold-out headline tour in 2025 and massive festival shows that have long since reached headliner level, Orden Ogan are one of the dominant forces in modern power metal. Hardly any other band in the scene combines epic storytelling, monumental live shows and such a loyal fan base at this level. Following their joint tour with Wind Rose, Orden Ogan are now announcing their biggest and most ambitious concert tour to date: the "Tour Of The Grave". The new album marks the band's next stage of development. Musically, "Lords Of The Grave" continues the band's uncompromising direction: dark, powerful power metal, punctuated by massive walls of guitars, sublime melodic arcs and choruses that are made for arenas. Sebastian "Seeb" Levermann tells us what we can expect from the next tour: "An even more epic show than ever before. Anyone who knows Orden Ogan knows that our shows are always a huge party with the audience - but this tour will be the biggest party of all."
One of Europe's most influential folk metal bands, Ensiferum, will be joining them on stage. The Finns have been combining Nordic folklore with melodic heaviness, anthemic power and epic choruses for decades. With their unmistakable style of folk, viking and melodic death metal, Ensiferum have gained a loyal fan base worldwide and are one of the style-defining bands of their genre. Their history with Orden Ogan goes back a long way: Ensiferum headlined the WinterNachtsTraum festival organized by Orden Ogan back in 2008. Almost two decades later, two established European metal acts are now coming together again - a package that combines epic melodies, powerful heaviness and thrilling live energy.
