Portal to play Whelan's in September

Portal have announced a show at Whelan's in Dublin on September 17, 2025.

The Australian extreme metal band are returning to Europe after ten years for the Gnomonic Incursion 2025 tour, alongside fellow metal band Impetuous Ritual.

The five-piece took to social media to talk about their upcoming concerts:

"Elaborate darkness weaved into masses of Death Metal in its own antiquity of sonic violence and perpetuating the mythos self-created," they wrote on Instagram.

"The henchmen within this brood pledge to open up its gates to feed upon mortal terror, a duty to destroy the senses and sanity."

Since 2009, the band's line-up has comprised The Curator, Horror Illogium, Aphotic Mote, Ignis Fatuus and Omenous Fugue.
