League of Distortion opened the night for Lord of the Lost on the Tour Noir 2026 at Carlswerk Victoria with a powerful and energetic set lasting roughly half an hour or so. Their sound blended hard rock with symphonic metal elements, combining heavy riffs with melodic atmospheres that worked well in the venue.
The audience was into it from early on, and the energy in the room kept building throughout the performance. A brief bass cable issue appeared during the second song, but it was fixed quickly and had no real impact on the flow of the set. The band handled it professionally and kept the momentum going without interruption.
Overall, the set was a strong start to the evening and proved why League of Distortion are a fitting opener for this tour, based on their reaction the audience was happy with the strong start.
