Indar is a Barcelona-based metal quartet blending progressive, black and post-metal influences, weaving clean vocals with gutturals. Drawing inspiration from Opeth, Gojira, Amenra, Alcest, and Jinjer, their sound ranges from crushing heaviness to haunting melodies.

The band debuted in late 2023 with the two-part single Rotten Roots and Prey, followed in June 2024 by Udol, their first track in Catalan. Accompanied by their first music video, Udol surpassed 100k views in less than three months. They continued to showcase their versatility with Nostalgia, a more melodic piece contrasting with earlier releases.

Over the past year, Indar has shared stages with bands like Madrid’s Bones of Minerva and US heavyweights Inter Arma, supported by Aloud Music. They’ve also appeared at independent festivals such as Le Reyerté and Metalokolypse in Galicia.

In April 2025, Indar released ANLAGE, their debut full-length album, born from collaborations with La Rubia Producciones and Four Skulls. At CastellHell 2025, expect a cathartic journey through light and darkness.
