Novelization
An underground, high-energy black metal artist.
Novelization emerged in 2023, featuring Chris Garnier (guitar, vocals), Max Bloemendal (guitar), Daan Huls (drums), and Koert Janssen (bass).

Their King's Day performance at Willemeen, opening for a packed crowd, was fully recorded, capturing the band’s raw live power. Novelization delivers atmospheric black metal with melodic passages, fused with old-school death metal, drawing inspiration from bands like Death, Ultar, and Dissection.
