![]() ![]() The arc of energy is reaching his highest point on ‘ Elegy’ the most famous hit. Like on the latest hit ‘ Take The Devil In Me.’ Everyone is waving their hands, singing along and clapping on the rhythm. Fascinated, and a real eye-catcher! Also grunter Alex Krull knows how to create a good atmosphere. On ‘ Farewell Proud Men’ Liv Kristine shows what a good front woman she is, moving her dress, arms and easily produce such a high clear tone. It is like Liv Kristine says: ‘ Good that you face the heat’ and that the sign for the security to move the fire hose and that makes the crowed even more excited. It is also very special to see them perform for their own crowd, with many fans and a very, very excited clapping crowd! Dutch team JB from Aborted (bass) and Sander van der Meer (guitarist) has a more heavy sound and together with the new drummer Roland Navratil (ex-Sirenia) the set is very uptempo and powerful. With bombastic arrangements, groovy guitars and the powerful voice of Liv Kristine the adrenaline is soon on the surface. ‘ Emerald Island’ is a personal favourite and it starts to bubble inside me. Tortured by the sun, but with all the energy they got presenting an excellent setlist, the best I have seen of them. With their recent album ‘ Njord’ the success is taking a big step forward. She invented the gothic metal, and with Leaves’ Eyes she developed a whole new style. Vielen Dank Vocanto!įor many years vocalist Liv Kristine is the figurehead of female singers in the metal. They give the audience so much energy, good music and a big smile on their faces. ‘ Fear Of The Dark’ is last song of a much too short set, and the big climax. It gives you pimples to see all those hands in the air. It is not only their talented voices, but also the natural charisma and the pleasure they reflect on the crowd and so easily to like. The crowd gets crazy on ‘ Master Of Puppets’ and it is in my eyes even better than the original with compliments to their energy and intensity. Touring in Europe with Blind Guardian at the moment, no wonder they cover ‘B ards Song ’ with strong melodies, two high voices and five vocalists, the drummer also participates. The high and poppy voice from Dennis Schunke is a real eye-catcher and also he is a natural front man with a lot of charisma. ![]() Opener ‘ Lost Forever’ (own composition) immediately grabs the attention, front woman Inga Scharf has a high pure voice, a perfect contrast with the heavy men parts producing the sounds of guitars, rhythm section and accompanied by Bastian Emig on drums. They introduce themselves as ‘We sing some metal songs for you A capella.’ It is erudite and very talented how this formation manages to create such a natural sound, not indistinguishable from the original. I saw them once, but this time the power is unprecedented. The band has an easy start, because they are so unbelievable popular. ![]() ![]() A dynamic crowd welcomes Van Canto and stays enthusiastic till the end. There is no green grass left, because the whole field is packed. It is a fact that a ray of sunlight make people happy and with a golden waze, the gods are with us today. Summerbreeze makes the summer complete and I am very thankful it exits, this little escape from reality. Driving around the church, down the hill, passing green fields to the highway (where we totally give full power in our yellow bird) the complete happiness is there. Where bands are easily amenable, fans are always optimistic, and the German politeness is heart warming. When for the last time the bags are counted, a double feeling occurs: it was a long week without my favourite habit (a long shower), so I am longing for home. It seems that everyone wants to show all their energy for the last time, and there is an unforgettable feedback on every band this day. The last day begins with a promising sunshine. ![]()
