The Norwegian Grammy award-winning metal band will perform its 1998 album, Nexus Polaris, in its entirety, at Eindhoven Metal Meeting 2024, 70000 Tons Of Metal, and Karmøygeddon Metal Festival 2025. The band is in the process of booking more shows throughout 2024 and into 2025.
The band comments on its return and upcoming performances: "Exciting News Alert!

Fans can rejoice as The Kovenant promises to deliver electrifying performances featuring tracks from their Grammy award-winning cult albums, Nexus Polaris and Animatronic, along with the timeless classics from their debut album, In Times Before The Light. While the band faces challenges with the absence of founding member Psy Coma due to health issues, fear not! The incredibly talented Knut Magne Valle from the legendary band Arcturus steps in to ensure that the magic continues to flow seamlessly. Stay tuned for an epic series of worldwide shows that promise to transport you into a realm of artistic brilliance and neo-classical symphonic space metal like never before!

The Kovenant was formed as a symphonic black metal act Covenant in Norway in 1993. Following a dispute with a Swedish electronic band of the same name, in 1999, the band subsequently changed its name to The Kovenant. The change also saw a musical shift into an industrial metal-influenced sound. Link
