Warm-Up – L’Empreinte de Montcul

The PLANE’R FEST Warm-Up is back in 2026 at L’Empreinte in Savigny le Temple, ’cause building up the pressure is not something that can be improvised (contrary to what some prog bands think).

After a previous edition that brilliantly proved that this partnership was neither a casting mistake nor an industrial accident, we’re back with a new evening dedicated to metal that exudes honesty and sweat.

Better known by its technical alias L’EMPREINTE DE MONTCUL, this Warm-Up will continue to defend a clear vision: no unnecessary polish, no half measures, just bands that hit where it makes noise.

The 2026 line-up features three bands who will prove that you don’t need a Glastonbury headliner to get the crowd going! What’s more, all three projects feature female lead singers! In an environment where testosterone still reigns supreme, this is a welcome change:

The evening will open with 111, just to set the tone right from the start. Minimalist in name, but much less so in impact: perfect for reminding us that the simplest number can sometimes do the most damage.

Next up is Parallyx, tasked with locking the venue into a state of controlled tension. Modern metal to keep the pressure on, test the strength of your neck muscles and make sure the audience is properly warmed up.

We’ll finish this warm-up with IMPARFAIT. ‘Cause there’s nothing more reassuring than a perfectly mastered imperfection.

And since a warm-up worthy of the name is never limited to music, PLANE’R FEST will once again bring out the usual goodies: festival passes, merch, invitations to future concerts at L’Empreinte… in short, everything you need to bring Christmas back in March.

See you on 13/03 in Savigny-le-Temple.

Prepare your prayers, absolution is going to taste like Montcul!
