"The first announcement for Metal East Nove Kolo 2019 fest in Kharkiv is Hate Forest. The band will reunite for a single live appearance. The band's fee for the show will be passed to children with cancer charity foundation."

"Their music is fresh like a mountain wind, deep as a sky blue and pure as waters of forest lakes. We're happy to present you the next participants of the festival — the Scottish masters of Caledonian metal Saor! With three full-length records behind its belt, the project run by Andy Marshall will bring to Kharkiv the romantic spirit of freedom hardened in numerous battles and rebellions.
