No, I liked them a lot too...these videos fake a lot of the real impression..DaN wrote:I'm feeling more & more alone in thinking they were great. Seems a lot of people are slagging them. I haven't seen that vid but being there I thought the best part was the fact that it actually sounded a lot like the old recordings. Maybe I was just in the right mood...MEXDefenderOfSteel wrote:i saw a video of Angel Witch on youtube, and hell it sounds way "different" the vibe is totally lost....sucks big time

Angel Witch were brilliant at Headbangers- much better than in London recently- and they were great there.
First time I had been, but I was with friends who had been before, and even I could sense the vibe wasn't quite right.
Still: Razor, Manilla Road, Portrait, Enforcer, Angel Witch, Killers, Cloven Hoof, Tyson Dog, Piledriver made it all worthwhile.
The lack of lights/ swamp combination was not great!

Maybe they should organize an olde cult metal quiz where more correct answers = cheaper ticket price!Bane wrote:too many Wacken shitheads there
Angel Witch ruled! Not really sure if they (Kevin) were (was) old and tired as I am just that and was happy to being able to keep up with their (his) pace. It may be sad them only living off those nwobhm-era years of creativety - but you wouldn't want them to omit any of that stuff in order to include songs off "screaming assault" or that rather horrid nineties t(h)rash.
Other highlights for me: Exxplorer and Manilla Road.
Nightshade also was really cool. Rick Pierce played some cool stuff and his hair-do was, along with MR performing Cage of Mirrors, the proto-metal event of the event.
I doubt it. Razor are still active and Bob Reid is thier vocalist.big mouth wrote:RAZOR were damn intense..played a mix of old shit and "shotgun" era stuff.... Reid sounded great again (like ibn Montreal a couple years ago) on the Sheepdog stuff.... now let's hope next time they will be in Europe it will be with Sheepdog...hehe....

Starting of with saying that the bands I saw absolutely rocked, great line-up this year. How great were Tyson Dog, The Rods, Tank and Razor.. amazing..
I was suprised by how big the whole thing got in a couple of years, we arrived in the early morning after the pre-party, and the (I thought only) camping was already full. WTF, but there was another camping luckily ;p . Still a lot of familiar faces and good fun. Nothing to complain at all for me. the music totally makes up for whatever is not all right there.
