The BMOA started as a regular metal festival, covering a wide range of genres. It moved more towards a Black Metal oriented lineup from mid-2000ers and started to book bands with ties to the NSBM scene from around 2010 on, resulting in booking the NSBM band Kroda for the 2026 edition of the festival.
