ABOUT
Since 2011, KLOGR have carved their own path through the alternative metal landscape, building a reputation as a powerful and uncompromising live force across Europe.
From their debut album Till You Decay to the darker and more refined Black Snow, the band quickly moved from club circuits to major European stages. In 2013 they appeared at Sweden Rock Festival, and in 2014 they hit the road for a 23-date European tour supporting American metal legends Prong, marking their first major international breakthrough.
Momentum continued to build. In 2015, KLOGR opened for Limp Bizkit in Florence, further expanding their exposure. A decisive turning point came with their collaboration with Grammy-winning producer David Bottrill (Tool, Godsmack, Staind), which led to the release of Keystone in 2017. That same year, the band toured Europe supporting The Rasmus, with Art Cruz joining them on selected dates.
Between 2018 and 2019, KLOGR intensified their international presence with European and UK tours alongside Butcher Babies, Eyes Set To Kill, Infected Rain, and Buckcherry, establishing themselves as a consistent and reliable force on the continental circuit.
After a period dedicated to writing and redefining their sound, the band returned stronger than ever. In 2022, they performed at Hills of Rock, sharing the stage with global heavyweights including Slipknot.
In 2024, KLOGR released Fractured Realities, a bold and uncompromising statement produced by Rusty, followed by a 43-date European and UK tour supporting Evergrey. The album marked a new sonic chapter — heavier, sharper, and emotionally direct.
In 2025, they reinforced that evolution with Reborn, a reimagined collection of 15 tracks from their catalog, featuring Art Cruz (Lamb of God) on a renewed version of Bleeding. The release was supported by a 32-date European tour alongside Katatoniaand Evergrey, further cementing their status on the international stage.
Now entering a new creative phase in 2026, KLOGR continue to evolve — driven by intensity, precision, and a relentless commitment to the stage.
