Formed in 2001, Swedish metal band Avatar have spent more than two decades building a reputation as one of the most inventive and entertaining acts in heavy music. Led by ringmaster frontman Johannes Eckerström, the five-piece blend crushing riffs with dark carnival theatrics, creating a self-styled "metal circus" that has won them devoted fans around the world. Across ten studio albums, including Dance Devil Dance (2023) and Don't Go in the Forest (2025), released on their own independent label, Black Waltz Records, they have constantly reinvented their sound while keeping the electric guitar firmly at its heart.
Their single "The Dirt I'm Buried In" topped Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart in 2023, and the band have supported Iron Maiden on tour as well as lighting up festival stages across Europe and the United States. Above all, Avatar are a live band: wildly theatrical, ferociously heavy and enormous fun.
