Celtic Frost singer/guitarist Tom G Warrior has unveiled a series of events in support of Avant-Garde Extreme metal act Triptyklon in Camden Town, London this May.

The show will be a UK exclusive of of Celtic Frost‘s music, upon request of the venue


Tom G Warrior told a press release about the upcoming events - “Celtic Frost‘s path would have been a very different – likely far more subdued – one if it hadn‘t been for the then largely London-based UK music press from the mid-1980‘s on. This, along with uncounted crucial musical influences in my youth, was the basis of a life-long bond between the UK and all of my musical endeavors. It is thus with utmost pleasure that we in Triptykon will perform a very distinct Celtic Frost-based concert at the iconic Roundhouse.”
