Dödsmässa

Dödsmässa (swedish word for Death Mass, Requiem) - The Dödsmässa Association is dedicated to arrange underground live masses/events/performances in Sweden.
We operate mainly around the city of Uddevalla and the surrounding area.
All events are arranged completely non-profit (DIY philosophy) and if possible partly in collaboration with the performing constellations (bands/artists).
All events in Uddevalla at Kulturhuset Bastionen are arranged in conspiracy with Musikföreningen Adrian.
For more information, purpose and goals of the association, read more under "Information".

The purpose of Dödsmässa

The purpose of the association is to arrange small-scale closed private music and related artistic events. The core of the association and invited bands/artists/performers is to work together with activities around the events. The focus of the events is on so-called underground metal and dark ambient, but other genres and performances may occur. We like to see smaller local performing acts but are also open for other national and international performers in the future. The purpose is also for like-minded people to meet, but there should be openness for new interested people to join the association to discover the "art form" of Dödsmässa.

The goals of Dödsmässa

The goals of the association are that the events and other things that are arranged should go at least break even financially and the membership fees cover our and our partners expenses like rent and related costs. There is no profit motive, all money should go to the events and hopefully some to the bands/artists. The goal is also to work for a live music scene in the above mentioned genres. A long-term goal is to arrange a multi-day festival.

Do you have a band or are you an artist who wants to perform at our masses?

Read the information on this page twice so you understand the concept, purpose and goals. Do this before contacting us please! At the time of writing, we do not have the finances to pay bands to travel here and arrange accommodation. It may change in the future, but this is the situation right now. We also do not have time with bands that do not fit our concept either. But otherwise you are very welcome to contact us to see if it is possible to make a collaboration.

Agreement

The standard agreement and collaboration with Musikföreningen Adrian is if there is money left over after their expenses for venue rent, sound technician etc. the bands share the surplus. It therefore depends on how many members come to the mass. That is why it is important that we all help to promote it! Sometimes it can be a few thousand kroner per band, but in the worst case it will be nothing. We want to be open about this so everyone knows what applies.
Exceptions for certain bookings and arrangements may occur.

- We all do this for the underground.
- "DIY" with no goal of profit other than trying to cover costs and hopefully be able to give the bands/artists something.
- As well as offering bands, artists and other artistic forms to show and perform their music and art.
