20 años de metal: Wacken

20 años de metal: Wacken

Wacken y su Festival metálico arrasan con 75.000 personas diarias en su 20 aniversario. Tres días y tres noches de sobredosis heavy en Alemania

Dos redondas décadas ha cumplido en su edición 2009 el prestigioso festival alemán Wacken Open Air (WOA), desde hace años, referente a nivel europeo, y posiblemente mundial, en cuanto a macrocitas metálicas al aire libre. Las altas expectativas por una edición que conmemoraba el 20 aniversario dispararon la venta de entradas de tal manera que, a finales del pasado año, ya se colgó el sold out, con lo que, mas chula que nadie, la organización del WOA se apuntó dos anuncios de «entradas agotadas» el mismo año, porqué también se acabó todo el papel meses antes de la edición 2008, con Iron Maiden como gran reclamo.

De nuevo, cerca de 75.000 camaradas heavies llegados desde todo el mundo (no faltaron ikurriñas y hasta alguna camiseta de la Real) tomaron con buen rollito Wacken, que si bien durante el año es un remanso de paz con vacas pastando plácidamente por sus verdes praderas y apenas 2.000 habitantes, durante el primer fin de semana de agosto se tiñe de negro convirtiéndose en capital mundial del metal. La fe del personal ante este festi es tal que la gente compra su abono sin conocer prácticamente que grupos tocarán. De hecho, para la edición 2010, que se celebrará entre el próximo 5 y 7 de agosto, ya se ha vendido en tiempo record (10 horas) la primera remesa de 10.000 abonos en oferta puesta a la venta.

Es la fidelidad heavy llevada al máximo, a sabiendas de que el WOA jamás defrauda porque tiene semejante prestigio que los grupos lo dan todo y hasta echan la casa por la ventana en cuanto a montaje escénico: el WOA es una oportunidad única, una especie de Champions heavy. Dicho esto, sí ha habido este año en parte cierto desencanto por un cartel en general con pocas estrellas, o al menos, con cabezas de cartel no demasiado espectaculares para un 20 aniversario. Quizás por eso no ha habido con ningún grupo la sensación de llenazo agobiante, y hasta de peligro (afortunadamente), que sí hubo la pasada edición con Iron Maiden.

Maratones metálicos

La primera jornada solía ser hace años un día de calentamiento, con un puñado de grupos actuando por la tarde. Ahora ese primer día, el jueves, es el bautizado como Night To Remember y aunque sigue siendo una jornada «a medio gas» por aquello de que arranca a la tarde, suele estar presidida por algún grupo de alto estatus como Whitesnake, Scorpions o Maiden en 2008. Este año los reyes de la añoranza fueron Heaven & Hell, es decir, Black Sabbath con Dio al frente. Show vistoso y repertorio sobrio con el que reivindicar sabiamente una muy valiosa época de Sabbath quizá no tan valorada al no estar encabezada por Ozzy Osbourne. Pese a la lluvia y el barro, H&H dio muestra de su buen estado de forma y el himno que les da nombre fue coreado largamente en las amplias campas de Wacken. Antes, Running Wild, que jugaban en casa, dieron cancha a su incansable listado de estribillos y melodías típicamente alemanas bajo un diluvio en el que se anunció como su último concierto. Veremos.

Al día siguiente arrancaron ya los cuatro escenarios (tres grandes en la campa principal y uno menor en el exterior donde incomprensiblemente metieron a Turisas el último día) y los horarios habituales, de mediodía hasta las tres de la madrugada, con conciertos casi sin pausa. Entre los grupos mañaneros, leyendas tan dispares como Napaln Death (grind core), UFO (hard) y sobre todo Gamma Ray (power metal) movilizaron a ingentes cantidades de público que no se sintieron defraudadas, cada una en su estilo. A Nevermore se les vio menos enchufados, sobre todo si les comparamos con los australianos Airbourne, que, como el año pasado, volvieron a arrasar plenos de energía a lo AC/DC en uno de los mejores conciertos del festi. Unos muy recuperados Hammerfall dieron más de lo que muchos esperaban, lo mismo que los jovenzuelos y agresivos Bullet For My Valentine, con la chavalería esperando impaciente a verles. A ellos y a In Flames, lejos de su estilo trallero de hace una década. En horario estelar atronaron Motorhead, en su habitual buena línea, y Doro, que se trajo un bonito montaje escénico y un repertorio que incluyó Breaking the Law, de Judas Priest. A gran altura y con entrega máxima, como siempre tratándose de Doro. Otra guapa como Simone Simons centró antes todas las miradas en el show de unos Epica correctos. Cerraron jornada los cada día más grandes Amon Amarth, con no demasiado volumen y show estelar, barco vikingo y guerreros incluidos.
Para el sábado, ya con el buen tiempo que reinó desde primera hora de la tarde del día anterior, destacaban por la mañana los siempre poderosos Rage, que se trajeron un porrón de invitados (entre ellos el cantante de Blind Guardian con una imagen ciertamente dejada), quizá demasiados. Testament repartieron su thrash metal como una apisonadora, sonando atronadores y brillantes. Increíble también la aceptación de In Extremo, combo germano que mezcla folk, instrumentos medievales y algo de tralla metálica, que si bien son perfectos desconocidos aquí (apenas un centenar de asistentes en su concierto de hace unos meses en la Rock Star de Barakaldo), en su país son verdaderamente grandes. La montaron parda. Aunque no tanto como Machine Head, quizá en su mejor momento pese a que siempre han sido un grupo de directo. Pusieron aquello patas arriba y las imágenes que mostraban las pantallas con el público enloquecido eran por si solas puro espectáculo. Bestiales. A Saxon les colocaron prácticamente como cabezas de cartel y aunque siempre gustan y hasta sacaron su águila luminosa, esta vez su repertorio no pareció el mejor.

El show GWAR, que deberían de contratar los de nuestra Semana de Terror, entretuvo a base de guarrería gore y con una imagen monstruosa a la que los mucho más populares Lordi deben mucho. Mientras, Korpiklaani convocaba a una multitud con su folk metal a ratos casi verbenero. Pura fiesta para cerrar un WOA como siempre estimulante, potente y. agotador.

Matt Tuck Interviewed By ALTITUDE TV

Matt Tuck Interviewed By ALTITUDE TV

Full Metal Jackie of Altitude TV conducted an interview with guitarist/vocalist Matt Tuck of Welsh metallers BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE at this year's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. Watch the four-minute chat below.

Regarding how the new BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE song — which the band has been played at some of its recent shows — compares to the group's previous material, Tuck recently told the German edition of Metal Hammer magazine, "It's kind of completely new. I don't think it's like anything on 'Poison' [2005] or 'Scream Aim Fire' [2008], is it?" Moose concurred, "It's kind of more classic, if you ask me. It's not speedy, it's not thrashy." Tuck added, "It's not thrashy or really intense metal or anything. It's just like a mid-tempo kind of really nice, hard rock song. I don't even class it as metal, really. It's got metal influences and a really cool metal riff, but the song, as a vibe, is more hard rock."

BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE recently entered a Malibu, California studio with producer Don Gilmore (LINKIN PARK, LACUNA COIL) to begin recording the band's third CD for an early 2010 release. According to Tuck, the as-yet-untitled effort will mark a slight departure from the more aggressive sounds of "Scream Aim Fire", which has sold 321,000 copies in the United States since its January 2008 release. "On the last [album], we tried to be a bit more thrashy, and that was cool, but we just wanna go back to more kind of classic sound now," he said. "We want people to [think] it's a good blend of what we've done in the past.

He continued, "It's a lot more mature-sounding. The record, as a whole, is a lot more mature-sounding, it's a lot more classic. It'll stand the test of time [more] than both the previous things we've done.

"I haven't done the vocal session yet, but it's something I'm really gonna put everything I have into. The last record was what it was 'cause I had loads of problems with my throat — I had an operation and all that shit. So that's why it kind of sounds a bit weird compared to the first one — 'cause I wasn't doing good. But this time, the voice is back, it's firing, it sounds like me again, and I'm really gonna make it a great vocal rock/metal album."

WINNERS Interviewed At KERRANG! [VIDEOS]

WINNERS Interviewed At KERRANG! AWARDS


In the sixth and final installment of Kerrang! magazine's Kerrang! Awards 2009 podcasts, Simon Young is joined by Kerrang! award winners SLIPKNOT, LIMP BIZKIT, MACHINE HEAD and BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE. Watch the 11-minute clip below.

According to ContactMusic.com, SLIPKNOT walked away with "Best Live Act" and "Best International Band" at the event, which frontman Corey Taylor co-hosted. He branded the double award win "really gratifying" and added, "I can't think of many bands that have worked harder, and it really feels good that people are starting to turn around and really see what we're about and appreciating it for what it is."

METALLICA won "Best Album" for "Death Magnetic", while THE PRODIGY walked away with the "Best Single" honor for "Omen".

Kerrang! editor Paul Brannigan stated: "SLIPKNOT and METALLICA are the two monsters of rock who have been picked out by the Kerrang! readers this time around. They've both had a really good year, No. 1 albums in the States and No. 1 and No. 2 albums over here, sold-out arena tours, headlining major rock festivals in this country... it's not really a surprise that they're up for every single category they're eligible for."

BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE scooped "Best British Band" for the second year in a row and San Francisco, California band MACHINE HEAD were handed the night's "Inspiration Award" for their contribution to heavy metal.

Reunited grunge rockers ALICE IN CHAINS and reformed LIMP BIZKIT were presented with the night's "Icon Award" and "Hall of Fame" prize, respectively.

Saturday saw Mayhem in Dallas

If you’re a fan of metal then you were probably at Mayhem Fest yesterday. The heat certainly didn’t stop huge crowds from flooding Superpages.com Center. And with bands like BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE, SLAYER and MARILYN MANSON you can see why.

I missed most of the second and third stage bands, unfortunately. Planning on getting there for ALL THAT REMAIN’S set – which my set list said started at 4:35 – ended up being a no go. I arrived in what would have been plenty of time but apparently those stages were running a good ten minutes early. From what I could hear, though, they did an okay job but the sound seemed a bit off. BEHEMOTH, however, had the crowd chanting their name before they hit the stage and put on a hell of a set. I had to feel a little sorry for them in those costumes and face paint though. August in Texas is not very forgiving.

I hid from the heat in the press tent for a bit – at least until the power went out. Thankfully it was only in some backstage areas (and a bit of the food court) and the main stage was just fine because it was time to shoot the big acts and they did not disappoint. BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE was up first and my hearing was pretty much gone from then on. KILLSWITCH ENGAGE decided to add to the heat of the day with some pyro and while it might have made us poor photogs down in the pit melt it provided some great pictures. These guys were definitely on top of their game and seemed to be having a great time, as was the audience.

Things were amped up several notices when gods of metal, SLAYER, took the stage. Believe it or not this was my first time to see SLAYER play and I was very impressed. Fantastic stage presence and they are still showing the younger guys how it’s done. I had heard that at some other stops on this tour large portions of the crowd left before MANSON took the stage. That was not the case in Dallas. Seats and lawn were packed and the sound deafening as the lights began to flash behind the huge black curtain covering the stage. MANSON came out to a roar from the crowd and I was surprised. Many of the pictures I’ve seen of him lately had him looking bloated and not well but last night he looked good. He prowled the stage, spitting drinks over the audience and crouching down at the end of the catwalk to touch hands with those on the front row – much to their delight. I have to admit I found it funny when he would blindly hold out a hand and some stage lackey came running with a drink or when another came and put a pack of ice on the back of his neck. I guess the heat in Dallas was to much for him even after ten.

I’d love to give you a list of songs from these bands but I’ll admit – this generally isn’t my type of music so I don’t know them. Don’t get me wrong, I like metal, but I prefer the type where the singers – you know – sing. Not scream. A bit of screaming here and there can add to it but when it’s the vast majority of the song I just lose interest. That being said I still thoroughly enjoyed the acts on the main stage, even MANSON who I’ve never really been much of a fan of. They survived the Texas heat and put on a great show.

Many more pictures will be up at RenegadePhotos later today so keep checking back

Michael Drummer Interviewed In Bristow Virginia

Metal Til Death conducted an interview with drummer Michael "Moose" Thomas of Welsh metallers BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE on August 9, 2009 at the Bristow Virginia stop of this year's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. Watch the chat below.

Despite gaining widespread acclaim for the festival's inaugural year, Galbraith isn't resting on his laurels.

"We haven't got everything right and we didn't promise we would in year one," he said.

"The day we say it's perfect is the day we should give up."
