Metalfest – HYPOCRISY & KRISIUN confirmed! ARCH ENEMY had to cancel!

Metalfest - http://de.metalfest.eu/

Just a few weeks from now the gates to METALFEST LORELEY will open and from June 20 – 22 more than 30 handpicked bands are taking part that belong to the biggest, heaviest and most exciting acts the genre has to offer. Bands like SLAYER, SUBWAY TO SALLY, ACCEPT, CHILDREN OF BODOM, TESTAMENT, SAXON, DORO, DOWN and many more are going to rock the Rhine Valley!

Now HYPOCRISY & KRISIUN have been confirmed for METALFEST LORELEY 2013. ARCH ENEMY had to cancel their performance due to familial reasons, find the band statement below.

These are the new entrants:
HYPOCRISY
Peter Tägtgren wrote death metal history in 1990: the year he founded HYPOCRISY! Gems like “Penetralia” (1992) or “Abducted” (1996) turned out to be landmark releases in terms of Scandinavian brutality mixed with epic melodies – could anyone ever forget that immortal hymn “Roswell 47”? The Swedish death metal legends are far from being done though: just check out their brand new opus “End of disclosure” (2013)!

KRISIUN
Founded in 1990, Brasilian death metal worshippers KRISIUN made sure pretty fast the whole extreme metal world would never forget their name. The power trio killed everything with its debut “Black force domain” in 1995, and their sheer old school force and brutal approach hasn`t faded a bit to this very day. Recently KRISIUN unleashed the demo and rarities collection “Arise from blackness”.

Statement ARCH ENEMY:
“It is with great disappointment that we have to cancel our shows at European festivals this summer. The reason for this being private family matters that demand our full attention, making it difficult to fulfill our commitments in that time frame. We are currently looking into the possibility of rescheduling these festival slots for next year. We would like to thank the festival promoters, and of course the fans for their understanding and continued support. We will use this downtime to finish up the work on our upcoming DVD/Blu-ray and continue with the songwriting process of the next Arch Enemy album. We look forward to seeing you all in 2014! Metal on!”

Dong 2012 Running Order

News from our Dong-Friends:
Hey everyone,
wow, wow and wow again! We never dreamed of the sheer amount of responses to our call to arms earlier this week. Thanks to you and your many “likes” on Facebook, we currently stand a good chance to make it into the selection for Kreiskulturtage des Kreises Wesel. For those not in the know, the thirteenth Dong was selected to run in a regional cultural competition (Kreiskulturtage des Kreises Wesel). If we win, we’ll get financial support from the district of Wesel. Although all competitors will be evaluated individually by a jury, there is also a poll online up until May 11th: Check it out on www.facebook.com/kreiswesel
The project with the highest number of votes will automatically become a competitor for 2013. So get on facebook and vote for the Dong! You can vote until May 11th, 10 a.m., but please feel free to go there and raise your hand on our behalf. After all we are talking about an awesome festival weekend in 2013! You can help us a great deal, not only by voting for us, but also by spreading the word, sharing the link and mobilizing your friends, granny and the family dog to “like” us. We’re neck-in-neck with a few other competitors, so every single vote counts!
But now on to news about this year’s festival: Starting today, you’ll find the running order of the 2012 D.O.A. on our website. We mixed up the bands so you’ll find a decent mixture of all sorts of different, newcomers, old skool metal veterans and a bunch of awesome headliners each day.
Take care and thanks in advance for voting for us,
Your Dong Team
