British all-star tribute bands celebrating System Of A Down and Slipknot return to Europe in 2027. Their travelling festival FOREVER NU! hits Zappa Barka in Belgrade on March 11, 2027.
Chop Suey and Slip-NOT are already familiar names to Belgrade audiences. Anyone who has experienced their shows knows how seriously they approach the music of the bands they celebrate.
This time, the festival will be even bigger. Two more tribute bands will join the tour, with both names to be announced soon.
FOREVER NU! is much more than a show by a single tribute band. It is a travelling festival celebrating bands that defined one of alternative metal’s most exciting eras.
One of the headliners is Chop Suey, the British all-star tribute to System Of A Down. Their live performances have already earned them a dedicated following across Europe.
System Of A Down songs demand much more than simply recreating the originals. Sudden changes, precision, speed and controlled chaos are all essential. Chop Suey brings those elements together on stage.
Two more tribute bands will also join the show. Their names will be announced soon, completing the FOREVER NU! festival lineup.
The festival’s second headliner is Slip-NOT, one of Europe’s most exciting Slipknot tribute bands.
Behind the drums is Andre Joyzi, who once worked as drum tech for the legendary Joey Jordison. Their connection later entered another chapter. Joyzi eventually succeeded Jordison as the drummer of Sinsaenum.
Slip-NOT focuses on the most aggressive side of Slipknot’s catalogue. Their relentless set takes audiences back to the era that transformed modern metal in the early 2000s.
Expect songs including “Left Behind,” “Wait & Bleed,” “People = Shit,” “Eyeless” and “Psychosocial.”
When an entire venue screams those songs together, you understand exactly what FOREVER NU! is about.

CHOP SUEY come from the United Kingdom and have held the title of Europe’s most authentic System of a Down tribute band for over a decade. Their career has been defined by relentless touring across Europe, from intimate clubs to major festival stages.
From the very beginning, the band has focused on absolute loyalty to the original sound. This includes not only musical accuracy but also stage attitude and intensity. These elements made System of a Down one of the most influential bands of the early 2000s.
CHOP SUEY are far from a typical tribute band. The lineup features seasoned professional musicians with extensive international experience. Members include current and former players from Dragonforce, Anti-Nowhere League, Breed 77, Tigertailz, and other recognized acts.
This strong musical pedigree is heard in every performance. Arrangements are tight, the rhythm section is powerful, and the vocals are convincing. As a result, CHOP SUEY feel less like a cover act and more like a living re-creation of the original band.
The band’s greatest strength lies in recreating the raw stage presence of System of a Down at their peak. Audiences do not just get a set of well-known songs. They experience a full-scale concert charged with adrenaline.
Sudden dynamic shifts, aggression, and dark humor define each performance. Every trademark element of SOAD is delivered with high musical precision. Careful attention to detail enhances the overall authenticity.
Through powerful live shows, CHOP SUEY have earned a reputation as a must-see act. Across Europe, their concerts consistently receive strong audience reactions.
Fans throughout the region have already experienced this firsthand. Today, CHOP SUEY stand as an unstoppable force on the European tribute scene. Their shows are not to be missed.
Slip-NOT is a relatively new but exceptionally powerful tribute band from the United Kingdom, dedicated to the legendary nu-metal group Slipknot from Iowa. The project brings together experienced musicians, including members of the band Chop Suey, ensuring a high level of professionalism and credibility from the very start.
Although new to the scene, Slip-NOT quickly established itself as a no-compromise live act. The mission is clear: deliver the raw energy and aggression that made Slipknot a global phenomenon.
Special attention goes to drummer Joyzi, a member of the extreme metal supergroup Sinsaenum. In that band, he replaced the late and greatly missed Joey Jordison, Slipknot’s original drummer and one of the most influential figures in modern metal.
This level of experience is audible in every performance. The drumming is brutal, precise, and relentless. The entire band sounds tight and powerful, with no loss of intensity.
Slip-NOT deliver a ruthless live set built around the most aggressive and iconic songs from Slipknot’s early 2000s era. The focus is on rawness, anger, and chaos — the elements that defined the band’s most intense period.
The audience is never passive. Entire venues erupt into sing-alongs for “Left Behind”, “Wait & Bleed”, “People=Shit”, “Eyeless”, and “Psychosocial”. That shared energy turns each show into a full-scale experience.
Slip-NOT do not offer polished nostalgia. They deliver sweat, chaos, and unfiltered emotion. Their shows are loud, intense, and physically demanding.
For fans of early Slipknot, this is more than a tribute band. It is a live experience that hits hard — and stays with you.
