METALCAMP 11 - Varg confirmed

Viking Metal Band “VARG” (which comes from Swedish and Norwegian meaning “wolf”) are able to look back on 5 years of glorious band history after their release of “Blutaar” in 2010. Numerous live gigs and festival appearances like on Legacy Fest, Metaldays, and Summer Night gave the band an excellent name in the scene. Now, the time is right to unleash their new album called “Wolfskult” via NoiseArt Records and the band has made two big steps forward, not only in regards to their songwriting skills, but also production and layout-wise as well as the professionalism of the band. VARG 2011 are one highly aggressive kill machine, ready to strike! The band is considered THE hope among the Viking/Pagan Metal scene! The record was once again produced by Andy Classen (Legion Of The Damned, Belphegor, Die Apokalyptischen Reiter) at Stage One Studios and this time around, the sound of the CD just kills it! A furious mix and one massive production let songs like “Wolfskult” or “Wir sind die Wölfe” rage out of your speakers! A true massacre! It´s literally the double-edged sword: The fluffy fur of the wolf spends warmth and security, but there´ll always be that hungry beast with its edged teeth and claws. The new opus is aggressive to the bone and kills at first sight! After a phenomenal show in 2010, the wolves are back at METALCAMP 2011 to performe some of their brand new material! 

Their new album „Wolfskult“ is out now as limited 2CD Digi Pak with Bonus CD, Jewelcase and Download. Order your copy right away at:

Live Chat With Moonspell

On Wednesday 6th April  you have the chance to chat live with Moonspell frontman Fernando Ribeiro at 9pm CET at www.metalcamp.co.uk 

"A true sovereign of the dark side announces his marching in the Slovenian paradise and threatens to rip your summer dreams with black-magic-music like a hungry wolf! MOONSPELL coming from deep religious Portugal know how diabolical music has to sound: On the one hand very emotional and melancholic, on the other hand like a brutal beast, that possesses the body and soul of it‘s victim. In the occult world of MOONSPELL, there is no place for aesthetes and do-gooders. The dark philosophers around singer and bandleader Fernando Ribeiro have the gift to catch the might of darkness in their songs and to show it obviously to the masses. Taste the bitter-sweet blood of the moon at METALCAMP 11!" 

Metalcamp 11: SLAYER confirmed

SLAYER confirmed

The time has come to announce the last big headliner – a true giant - for your headbanger’s holidays. The high rated main-act-position will be occupied by none less than the legendary, unique, sacrosanct and glorious thrash-gods of SLAYER. Honestly, this is simply the truth: Tom Araya, Kerry King, Jeff Hanneman and Dave Lombardo will honour METALCAMP 2011 with a typical killer-performance, destroying the wonderful metal-paradies completely. Feel free to celebrate the „Unholy Alliance“ at your headbanger’s holidays – „Hell Over Paradise“ becomes reality! SLAYER already entered the Main Stage in 2005 and convinced themselves of the amenities of the festival. We think back to an amazing live-show-experience! Now the US-cult-thrashers return for devastating Tolmin and blasting your brains out of your heads with their all-time-classics. If you didn’t save your ticket yet, it’s urgently necessary now!
