Wir möchten uns an dieser Stelle ganz herzlich für die Einladung für dieses Kleinod an Festival bedanken. Die Organisation trotzte dem Wetter, sie war flexibel genug, als auf der A5 ein Unfall passierte und Destruction in Zeitnot kamen, sie organisierte Traktoren, um die Zuschauer aus den nassen und schlammigen Wiesen abzuschleppen.

Full blown Metalcore and Thrash Metal, created by youngsters and monsters. We wanted to see Lost Society after nine years, as the played old school Thrash Metal on Hellfest´s Mainstage and a couple of months later as a support for Destruction. And, of course, Vended, Slipknot light, from Des Moines, Iowa.
Yeah, now it´s complete and the organisation team added Sonja, Voodoo Zombies and Dead Chasm. Check the added Spotify playlist and get your tickets soon.
A festival with bands far away from any mainstream, situated in the centre of Freiburg im Breisgau (Germany), two clubs, I guess a quite nerdy audience. Check the bands on my self created Spotify playlist.
