Black Troll Festival


Well, this was a very eventful weekend. But let's take it from the beginning...

We left Sölvesborg at 4 o'clock in the morning to catch the boat at 8. The boat trip lasted 5 hours and 45 minutes. Extremely boring, by the way. Then we drove from Rostock to Bornstedt and we arrived at 8 in the evening.

We were really exited cause the festival was built around an old ruin on top of a hill. It looked really cool and you could really feel the medieval theme of the festival. We received free food, drinks and everything. It felt really good.

At midnight we entered the stage and we did a really great gig! I actually headbanged til my hair got stuck in my piercing and the piercing fell off haha. After the gig, people were screaming for more so we gave them "Nifelheim" as a bonus act but we really f***ed that one up haha.

Anyway, it all went good and we had to leave early to catch the morning boat. Well here it all went to hell I tell you.

At 5 in the morning one of our cars crashed on the autobahn and was totally wrecked. All of us who were in the car, me, Thommy & Emil, survived with only a couple of bruises. Incredible! Jimmy & Reine drove in a car behind us and witnessed how our car suddenly flew off the road in a really high speed, volting further out on a big field. We were guarded by angels, I tell you. Or Valkyrians perhaps? Almost everything in the car was wrecked, including my bass, Jimmie's guitar and other gear.

Anyhow we're extremly happy to be alive and now we have to take a break from the music for a while to gather new stuff and rise from the ashes once again =)

Cheers!

Travel issues!

Tomorrow we will be playing at the Black Troll Festival. At first we we're planning to use a big tour bus for our trip to Germany and we also planned to begin our journey today. The boat tickets were booked and everything was in order until suddenly the bus broke down.
Yesterday, Jimmie found a replacement bus but today it turned out to be malfunctioning. Lots of bad luck indeed.
Well our boat tickets have been rebooked and now it seems we're leaving tomorrow morning instead and we will be driving there in a smaller car. We'll also be leaving the festival much earlier than planned. It sucks....
Well, see you on stage tomorrow evening at 11.30! Cheers!

Siesta!

Today we did a really great performance at the Siesta!- festival! This festival is mostly known as a pop festival so we really thought it would be at most 3 or 5 people in the audience (lol) but it turned out to be a lot lot more =)
Here you have some live pictures!

Cheers!

Today we rehearsed the playlists and it went great. Can't wait to show the world how to kill on stage \m/
By the way, I've been writing on a new song lately and it's finally finished. Just some lyrics missing. When it's titled I will give you a little taste.

Battle Metal Fest 2

So, I'm finally back from a great weekend in Germany. We spent about 22 hours on the road but we had a really great time and we drank a lot of beer of course.
We made a lot of great new friends and did get to meet our bosses from Trollzorn for the very first time. Kai & Stefan, thanks guys, it was really nice meeting you!
We also made friends with the bands Obscurity, Slechtvalk, Dyrathor & Kromlek. Great bands all of them. Special thanks to the Obscurity- guys who hosted the evening. You made us feel very welcome, thanks!
The audience was loud, happy & cheerful. We had to cut off two of our songs to fit the schedule but it all went real smooth.
I got really drunk and I actually went lost in the city of Essen while heading back to the hotel. Woops... Eventually I found a cabdriver who told me I had walked 3 km too far and then he drove me to the hotel, haha, thank you mr cabdriver!

Ready to fight, win, kill & conquer!
