Claustrofobia are on the bill for Bangers Open Air 2027, which will be the first time they have played in Brazil in seven years.

The brothers Marcus and Caio D'Angelo started the band in 1994 and have kept it independent since, which is most of the reason the career reads the way it does: seven albums from Claustrofobia in 2000 through Thrasher, Fulminant, I See Red, Peste and Download Hatred to Unleeched in 2022, hundreds of shows across Brazil, Europe and the United States, and a Rock in Rio slot in 2019.
