SUMMER BREEZE 2013<\/strong>
\nIn the meantime nearly every metalhead in Central Europe knows each festival summer is just completed with its final highlight Summer Breeze! Travelling to Dinkelsb\u00fchl while these days you can find besides a beautiful town an open air that guarantees continuity by confirming lots of interesting bands from different subgenres for a fair ticket price. After 35000 sold tickets they declared Summer Breeze 2013 sold out.
\nWhat we really appreciate about the Summer Breeze is the fact they don’t just concentrate on the headliner positions being represented by Sabaton, Lamb Of God and In Flames this year, but on a strong billing in general as well. The weather was as good as it had been all the years before, just as a Summer Breeze. The organisation did as well. The most remarkable change were the extended size of the Party Stage Tent, the huge screen besides it and the new regular program on the Camel Stage on wednesday. On this year’s Summer Breeze 100 bands appeared on four stages (including the Camel Stage) in four days for about 35000 visitors (Sold out!).<\/p>\n

Wednesday<\/strong>
\nParty Stage<\/strong>
\nBury Tomorrow<\/strong> After the First Blood competition the Nuclear Blast Labelnight began by the quintet from Southampton. The probably because of the before happened New Blood Award mainly young spectators celebrated the Metalcore. Melodic hooklines met breakdowns and convinced me from \u201cLionheart\u201d to \u201cRoyal Blood\u201d despite the fact I hadn’t heard of them before. First band = first surprise!
\nVader<\/strong> The polish Death Metal institution left no doubt the brutality level raised quite a lot as the opener \u201cSothis\u201d, \u201cCarnal\u201d, \u201cReborn In Flames\u201d, \u201cCome And See My Sacrifice\u201d showed. The packed tent headbanged until \u201cWings\u201d and \u201cHelleluyah!!! (God Is Dead)\u201d finished this hour of a Death Metal lesson.
\nExodus<\/strong> No less hard, just a bit slower the US Thrash Metal acted on stage. The Slayer-supporting guitarist Gary Holt got replaced by Bay Area Thrash college Kragen Lum. After the Vader blast it was hard to attract the headbangers again, but from \u201cPiranha\u201d on everything worked for the Californians. So \u201cBonded By Blood\u201d, \u201cA Lesson In Violence\u201d and \u201cToxic Waltz\u201d could just succeed.
\nDestruction<\/strong> After the mentioned performances many fans had left the tent in which much space wasn’t civilized. The Thrash trio began by \u201cThrash Till Death\u201d and let follow by \u201cNailed To The Cross\u201d, \u201cMad Butcher\u201d as the end consisting of \u201cThe Butcher Strikes Back\u201d, \u201cBestial Invasion\u201d and \u201cCurse The Gods\u201d several classics which got jubilated by the few fans.
\nKadavar<\/strong> The Stoner Rock threepiece from Berlin replaced the canceling Witchcraft. And they did their job well bringing the Rock vibe back on stage. Of course their set mainly consisted songs from their debut record \u201cAbra Kadavar\u201d which sounded well to me. Nice!<\/p>\n

Thursday<\/strong>
\nMain Stage<\/strong>
\nFirst Blood<\/strong> Just after the New Blood Award winner it was time for First Blood. What a program pun! Hardcore from San Francisco was just the right instrument to wake up the visitors. Just too monotonous, but the Californians reached their goal and took care about one of the earliest wall of deaths I have ever seen on festivals.
\nThe Bones<\/strong> The Punk Rock band played several times on the Summer Breeze, and again they rocked the crowd. This time the Swedes did this even in the heat of the early afternoon by \u201cScrewed, Blued And Tattooed\u201d, \u201cGazoline Business\u201d and the Accept-cover \u201cI’m A Rebel\u201d.
\nSoilwork<\/strong> In spite of the heat the Melodic Death Metal institution from Helsingborg had the pleasure to welcome lots of fans in front of the stage. In contrast to most festival appearances the sixpiece took the risk considering by the opener \u201cThis Momentary Bliss\u201d, \u201cSpectrum Of Eternity\u201d, \u201cTongue\u201d and \u201cRise Above The Sentiment\u201d four songs of their new double album \u201cThe Living Infinite\u201d, but because of the high quality of this masterpiece it worked. Of course it worked even better with the classics \u201cFollow The Hollow\u201d, \u201cNerve\u201d and the final \u201cStabbing The Drama\u201d.
\nFear Factory<\/strong> The US Industrial Metal icon started with a strong combination between old and new by \u201cThe Industrialist\u201d, \u201cShock\u201d, \u201cEdgecrusher\u201d and \u201cPowershifter\u201d. The many fans didn’t hesitate to headbang and to start the pit-action. In comparison to the Wacken-appearance two weeks ago fronter Burton C. Bell’s voice seemed to be in a much better mood coping with most of the clean passages. So the wonderful \u201cArchetype\u201d became a real pleasure, the classics \u201cDemanufacture\u201d, \u201cSelf Bias Resistor\u201d and the final hit \u201cReplica\u201d of course as well.
\nDer W<\/strong> The ex-B\u00f6hse-Onkelz-fourstringer Stephan Weidner and his band seemed to had no credibility in Dinkelsb\u00fchl. The festival area was pretty empty, and the left persons showed their middle fingers. Not the best atmosphere to appear, I guess. On the other hand the show didn’t rock at all.
\nSabaton<\/strong> What followed wasn’t quite better. But only in my opinion. The masses had returned to celebrate songs about war historic. What sounds quite sarcastic is a bestseller, and so the Swedish fivepiece had no problem to start after Europe’s \u201cThe Final Countdown\u201d as intro by \u201cGhost Division into their set. They had to play this with lent instruments after they had lost their luggage by their airline. But this didn’t disturb the band. Supported by many pyro-effects \u201cAttero Dominatus\u201d, \u201cPanzerkampf\u201d, \u201cThe Cliffs Of Galipoli\u201d, \u201cThe Art Of War\u201d and \u201cPrimo Victoria\u201d got much jubilation. <\/p>\n

Pain Stage<\/strong>
\nStormborn<\/strong> The same procedure as every year. The winner of the underground competition which had been held one day before was honored by the New Blood Award as by the first slot on the open air festivalsite. The young band from London wasn’t more as an average Power Metal band that had listened a lot to Iron Maiden. Were the other bands in this competition really worse?
\nCultus Ferox<\/strong> The medieval Folk band bored me for another time. But they are Summer Breeze frequenters and could count on their own fan base in Dinkelsb\u00fchl to which I definitely don’t belong to. \u201cAhoi\u201d!
\nAlestorm<\/strong> It didn’t become much better in my opinion, but lots of fans celebrated the Folk Metal about piracy. The scottish fivepiece knew how to animate their supporters by \u201cThe Sunk’n Norwegian\u201d, \u201cShipwrecked\u201d, \u201cKeelhauled\u201d and \u201cCaptain Morgan’s Revenge\u201d causing several crowdsurfers.
\nWe Came As Romans<\/strong> The variable Metalcore of this sixpiece from Detroit was the right contrast to the combos before. The two vocalists as all the hooklines convinced absolutely as the live interpretation of \u201cTo Move On Is To Go Now\u201d, \u201cFade Away\u201d, \u201cBroken Statues\u201d and the The Wanted – cover \u201cGlad You Came\u201d inspiring their many fans to sing along with. And those even happened while the opener \u201cHope\u201d and the title song from the brandnew album \u201cTracing Back Roots\u201d.
\nKorpiklaani<\/strong> And another Folk Metal combo wanted to make party. The musicians seemed pretty drunk just entering the stage. Several of their fans seemed to be as well, and so the party could start. Musically this turned out to a bad joke.
\nPowerwolf<\/strong> The triumphal procession moved on to as through Dinkelsb\u00fchl. Of course, the Summer Breeze is some kind of a home match for the five wolves performing there for about the fourth or fifth time. The opening \u201cSanctified With Dynamite\u201d and \u201cWe Drink Your Blood\u201d were sung by thousands of fans. The filled festivalsite celebrated \u201cAmen & Attack\u201d, \u201cIn The Name Of God (Deus Vult)\u201d, \u201cColeus Sanctus\u201d and \u201cKreuzfeuer\u201d from the very new album \u201cPreachers Of The Night\u201d as classics like \u201cWerewolves Of Armenia\u201d, \u201cResurrection By Errection\u201d or \u201cAll We Need Is Blood\u201d. Technical problems couldn’t stop band as fans, and so a jubilated amazing show ended by \u201cRaise Your Fist, Evangelist\u201d and \u201cLupus Dei\u201d.
\nSaltatio Mortis<\/strong> What happened to this stage on this day? The next medieval Folk Rock ensemble became even more horrible than their genre colleges had been before. But even after midnight there fans applauding. Whatever!<\/p>\n

Party Stage<\/strong>
\nMustasch<\/strong> Five years after their latest Summer Breeze – participation the quartet from Gothenburg showed how Rock has to sound like. Beginning with the lower tones of the semi-ballad \u201cIt’s Never To Late\u201d the tent crowd noticed pretty fast this show was about to turn to rock at all. Supported by Ralf Gyllenhammer’s german comments the audience had fun with \u201cBring Me Everyone\u201d, \u201cDown In Black\u201d and the hit \u201cDouble Nature\u201d.
\nIlldisposed<\/strong> Ironic announcements held in german are a typical attribute of the Danish as well. Fronter Bo Summers knew how to entertain by pointing out on the development of the band which had played on an open air stage the last time in 2007. Besides much laughter the quintet caused headbanging- as pit-action especially by the classics \u201cWeak Is Your God\u201d, \u201cI Believe In Me\u201d, \u201cDark\u201d and \u201cThrow Your Bolts\u201d. A strong as much appreciated Death Metal performance got finished by \u201cA Child Is Missing\u201d, \u201cFear The Gates\u201d and \u201cNow We’re History\u201d.
\nCult Of Luna<\/strong> After five piece the eightpiece (!) from Northern Sweden returned to the same stage to fascinate again by creating a melancholic atmosphere filling the whole tent. The band including their four guitarists (!) put their main focus on their new masterpiece \u201cVertikal\u201d by the opener \u201cI: The Weapon\u201d as the two finally played tracks \u201cDisharmonia\u201d and \u201cIn Awe Of\u201d which got as massively supported as \u201cGhost Trail\u201d and \u201cFinland\u201d. The band seemed to fascinate by their performance combined with an amazing light show. Best show of this year’s Summer Breeze!<\/p>\n

Friday<\/strong>
\nMain Stage<\/strong>
\nFeuerschwanz<\/strong> The Bavarians attracted thousands of supporters in front of the stage what definitely astonished. But many of them seemed to be the nowadays usual event freaks with costumes and stuff not singing the trivial singalongs than just something. Anyway their Folk Metal stuck much more on my nerves than those freaks did.
\nNeaera<\/strong> Finally: Deathcore smashed the audience backt to what the festival mainly is about. After they had succeeded at all two weeks ago in Wacken the quintet from M\u00fcnster striked again. Considering by the title track as opener, \u201cThrough Treacherous Flames\u201d and \u201cMy Night Is Starless\u201d material from the new \u201cOurs Is The Storm\u201d – hammer the classics \u201cLet The Tempest Come\u201d, \u201cArmamentarium\u201d and the finisher \u201cSpearheading The Storm\u201d left no trace about the heavy- as tightness of this band. Shouter Benny Hilleke thanked for the suppport and the audience was completely satisfied.
\nAgnostic Front<\/strong> The fathers of old school – Hardcore from New York City rocked Dinkelsb\u00fchl by hymns like \u201cFor My Family\u201d, \u201cCrucified\u201d and of course by \u201cGotta Go\u201d. Roger Miret, Vinnie Stigma & Co obviously enjoyed being celebrated by nearly all present visitors who might have been ten thousand then. To the pleasure of the fans the five guys closed their set by the Ramones cover \u201cBlitzkrieg Bop\u201d supported by a tremendous sound.
\nEisbrecher<\/strong> The follower of Megaherz has the same problem as its named forerunner: It sounds like a Rammstein-clone. And this attracted a huge audience, but on the other side it was kind of significant the only hit \u201cMistst\u00fcck\u201d from the mentioned Megaherz got extended to a twelve-minute-version .
\nAnthrax<\/strong> The Thrash Metal icon from New York started phenomenal by \u201cAmong The Living\u201d, \u201cCaught In A Mosh\u201d and \u201cEfilnikufesin (N.F.L.). The following \u201cIn The End\u201d got dedicated to Ronnie James Dio and Dimebag Darrel what caused much applause by the audience. By \u201cFight ‘Em ‘Til You Can’t\u201d they considered another song from the current \u201cWorship Music\u201d – album. But the classics \u201cDeathrider\u201d, \u201cIndians\u201d and \u201cGot The Time\u201d earned the most support by the headbangers, crowdsurfers and moshpitters. And so they during the surprising AC\/DC\u00b4-cover \u201cT.N.T.\u201d. After \u201cI Am The Law\u201d Scott Ian & Co left the stage to return with the encores \u201cMadhouse\u201d, \u201cMedusa\u201d and \u201cAntisocial\u201d.
\nLamb Of God<\/strong> While viewing the running order for the first time I got astonished about the headliner position of the quintet from Richmond after Anthrax. But from the first tones of the opener \u201cDesolation\u201d it was clear they deserved it. The following \u201cGhost Walking\u201d, \u201cWalk With Me In Hell\u201d, \u201cSet To Fail\u201d and \u201cRuin\u201d impressed by heaviness, groove and tightness. Lead by shouter Randy Blythe whose latest prison drama in the Czech Republic took its well-known end of being declared as unguilty the charisma as sympathy was another factor, especially while stressing this was the first headliner show on a european festival or while thanking for the support as for the german beer. After \u201cContractor\u201d the fivepiece returned on stage to fulfill the wish for encores by \u201cIn Your Words\u201d, \u201cLaid To Rest\u201d, the hit \u201cRedneck\u201d and \u201cBlack Label\u201d. The probably twenty thousand fans celebrated those ones nearly ecstatic. After this performance it was easy to see Lamb Of God is ready for any festival headliner show.<\/p>\n

Pain Stage<\/strong>
\nPsychopunch<\/strong> The planned Sister Sin needed to cancel their appearance and got short-term-replaced by regular guests of the Summer Breeze. The four Swedes had to play in front of a small crowd which probably wouldn’t have happened in case of being on the proclaimed billing. Cool Punk Rock show!
\nLetzte Instanz<\/strong> Because of its name this sevenpiece usually played as last act the years before. Anyway, their German-speaking Gothic Rock didn’t rock at sunny noon as well, except for the \u201cFinal Countdown\u201d – intro.
\nLeaves’ Eyes<\/strong> Even more epic became the following show. Liv Kristine, her husband and the Atrocity-backing-band stuck on my nerves for another time. Exclusive was the very first performance of \u201cHell To The Heavens\u201d from the forthcoming release.
\nEnd Of Green<\/strong> The next appearance turned out to a home game for another time. The regional heroes added another one to their collection of great Summer Breeze – shows. From the opener \u201cHighway 69\u201d on their cool combination between Rock and Gothic rocked Dinkelsb\u00fchl. The crowd obviously was pretty familiar with \u201cKillhoney\u201d, \u201cGoodnight Insomnia\u201d, \u201cTie Me A Rope… While You’re Calling My Name\u201d and \u201cDrink Myself To Sleep\u201d. The quintet presented by \u201cHangman’s Joke\u201d and \u201cDe(ad)generation\u201d material from their brandnew album \u201cThe Painstream\u201d being released the same day. \u201cDead End Hero\u201d marked the end of a rocking gig.
\nWalls Of Jericho<\/strong> Fresh mother Candace Kucsulain ruled the stage as she had done before the baby break. After each of her advises circle-pits or crowdsurfers were just a question of seconds and the band added the US-Hardcore-soundtrack by \u201cA Trigger Full Of Promises\u201d, \u201cThe New Ministry\u201d and \u201cThe American Dream\u201d.
\nTiamat<\/strong> The quartet from Stockholm took care about a more silent break which sounded quite chilling. And although tracks like \u201cVote For Love\u201d, \u201cCain\u201d or \u201cBrighter Than The Sun\u201d rock, the highlights were for another time: \u201cWhatever That Hurts\u201d, \u201cThe Sleeping Beauty\u201d and \u201cGaia\u201d. What a surprise!
\nFinntroll<\/strong> After years the Finns returned with ridiculous plastic hobbit ears and filled by the title track as opener, \u201cMordminnen\u201d, \u201cH\u00e4xbrygd\u201d, \u201cN\u00e4r J\u00e4ttar Maschera\u201d and \u201cSkogsdotter\u201d nearly half of the gig with new \u201cBloodsvept\u201d-material. But most appreciated of course got the final \u201cTrollhammeren\u201d and \u201cJaktens Tid\u201d.<\/p>\n

Party Stage<\/strong>
\nEvergreen Terrace<\/strong> Finally the Metalcore-fivepiece from Florida returned to Dinkelsb\u00fchl. This time they rocked the Party Stage Tent from the opener \u201cEnemy Sex\u201d over \u201cWhere There Is Fire, We Carry Gasoline\u201d and \u201cWolfbiker\u201d to the great final consisting of Tears For Fear’s \u201cMad World\u201d, the hit \u201cChaney Can’t Quite Riff Like Helmet’s Page Hamilton\u201d and the U2’s \u201cSunday, Bloody Sunday\u201d. Shouter Andrew Carey was obviously pretty much drunk, but he matched all his passages, so this circumstance didn’t mean any live-quality losses, it just turned out funny. Lead by clean vocalist as sixstringer Craig Chaney the band succeeded with their groove as by their catchy hooklines. The tent population celebrated this enormously, even a wheelchair user practised crowdsurfing.<\/p>\n

Saturday<\/strong>
\nMain Stage<\/strong>
\nOrden Ogan<\/strong> The germany Blind Guardian – fans still sounded to similar to their obvious idols, their stageacting was lame and the most celebrated \u201cWe Are Pirates\u201d was no more than a bad joke.
\nVan Canto<\/strong> A much more individual approach wasn’t set by the following ensemble by one drummer and five vocalists singing and interpreting the remaining instruments to own tracks as to Nightwish’s \u201cWishmaster\u201d, Grave Digger’s \u201cRebellion (The Clans Are Marching)\u201d and Iron Maiden’s \u201cFear Of The Dark\u201d. This worked as always that way: Interesting for the first few minutes, tedious for the rest of the concert.
\nMoonspell<\/strong> Portugal’s finest played a solid Gothic Metal show as they are known for. The duet between mainman Fernando Ribeiro and Tristania’s Mariangela Demurtas to \u201cRaven Claws was nice, but the real highlights were the evergreens \u201cOpium\u201d, \u201cVampiria\u201d, \u201cAlma Mater\u201d and \u201cFull Moon Madness\u201d. Cool live appearance!
\nDevildriver<\/strong> The Thrash Metal fivepiece from California didn’t attract to much people, maybe because of the heat. Anyway, Dez Farfara demanded a wall of death to destroy a few guys in Teletubbies-costumes. They considered by \u201cRuthless\u201d and \u201cThe Appetite\u201d two tracks from the forthcoming output \u201cWinter Kills\u201d to be released two weeks later. The biggest circle-pits of the gig were seen during \u201cI Could Care Less\u201d and \u201cClouds Over California\u201d.
\nHatebreed<\/strong> From then on Jamey Jasta and his Hardcore-comrades took over Dinkelsb\u00fchl. The thousands of fans just seemed to had been awaiting these 75 minutes. The Connecticut-fivepiece considered by \u201cDead Man Breathing\u201d, \u201cHonor Never Dies\u201d, \u201cIndivisible\u201d and \u201cThe Language\u201d material from the new \u201cThe Divinity Of Porpose\u201d – record. The biggest moshpit-action happened and the most crowdsurfers were counted while \u201cTo The Threshold\u201d as while the great final consisting of \u201cThis Is Now\u201d, \u201cI Will Be Heard\u201d and \u201cDestroy Everything\u201d. Another highlight was the Slayer-cover of \u201cGhosts Of War\u201d which got dedicated to Jeff Hanneman.
\nIn Flames<\/strong> The last show of the \u201cSounds Of A Playground Fading\u201d – world tour was supposed to happen in Dinkelsb\u00fchl. Its title song set the start for the following 90 minutes containing a best-of-set, an ambitious band and fire works show with many pyros and other special effects. The band which attracted the biggest masses on the festivalsite inspired by \u201cPinball Map\u201d, \u201cOnly For The Weak\u201d, \u201cCloud Connected\u201d, \u201cThe Quiet Place\u201d and \u201cThe Mirror’s Truth\u201d to headbanging as moshpits. Anders Frid\u00e9n entertained pretty relaxed and announced to come back with an awesome new album before disbanding by the amazing final consisting of \u201cDeliver Us\u201d, \u201cTake This Life\u201d and \u201cMy Sweet Shadow\u201d. Impressive!<\/p>\n

Pain Stage<\/strong>
\nNachtblut The most horrible wake-up-call I have ever experienced happened that morning. The musically as visually ridiculous fivepiece from Osnabr\u00fcck set just one little highlight when they covered Die Prinzen by \u201cAlles Nur Geklaut\u201d.
\nArkona<\/strong> The Russian Pagan-combo entered the stage in viking-pelts despite the heat. And as ridiculous became their following ‘tralala’-music. The fact they sang in russian probably hided some more ridiculous lyric circumstances.
\nFiddler’s Green<\/strong> The approach of the band before got fulfilled by the Folk Rock \u2013 sevenpiece. The Bavarians presented by \u201cThe More, The Merrier\u201d a new track from the brandnew \u201cWinners & Boozers\u201d release. The fans danced, partied and initiated the wall of Folk.
\nKnorkator<\/strong> The weirdoes from Berlin should have better played on the neighbored Main Stage. Masses filled the place in front of the Pain Stage to celebrate the show from the beginning marked by \u201cDer Ultimative Mann\u201d and \u201cIch Will Nur Fick’n\u201d. The following covers of Ace Of Base’s \u201cAll That She Wants\u201d and \u201cBoney M.’s \u201cMa Baker\u201d convinced those spectators who hadn’t been familiar with the band. Its show elements convinced as well shooting vocalist Stumpen inside a big gum ball as ultimate crowdsurfer over the crowd. All this lead to maximum sympathy and support while \u201cIch Lass Mich Klonen\u201d, \u201cAlter Mann\u201d and \u201cB\u00f6se\u201d and \u201cWir Werden Alle Sterben\u201d.
\nEnsiferum<\/strong> Another victim of Air Berlin became the Finns who had to lent their instruments from other bands and dedicated \u201cTale Of Revenge\u201d to the airline. Anyway this show turned out to a party within \u201cToken Of Time\u201d, \u201cBattle Song\u201d and the final \u201cIron\u201d before the Star Wars theme marked the outro.
\nAmorphis<\/strong> Another stirring performance was held by Amorphis in Dinkelsb\u00fchl. It had become colder and under a clear sky the melodies from the thousand lakes suited the atmosphere totally. By the opener \u201cShades Of Gray\u201d, \u201cNightbird’s Song\u201d and \u201cThe Wanderer\u201d compositions from the new album \u201cCircles\u201d found their consideration. Those ones got as much celebrated as the classics \u201cThe Castaway\u201d and \u201cOn Rich And Poor\u201d. The crowd jubilated each song by much applause. So \u201cThe Smoke\u201d and \u201cHouse Of Sleep\u201d meant the end of a wonderful show.
\nDark Funeral<\/strong> As three years ago at the same festival fronter Emperor Magus Caligula proclaimed by the last played \u201cMy Funeral\u201d his parting from the band. He should have better held his promise because the Swedish Black Metalers didn’t impress at all by their wannabe-evil-performance.<\/p>\n

Party Stage<\/strong>
\nArchitects<\/strong> It’s a tough question to say who jumped around more: The Metalcore-band from Brighton or its fans. The melodies combined with breakdowns worked very well with the crowd around midnight. So they finished an inspiring performance with \u201cThese Colors Don’t Run\u201d.
\nPrimordial<\/strong> Pure Heavy Metal reigned during the following 55 minutes. Lead by the charismatic mainman Alan Averill Nemtheanga \u201cGods To The Godless\u201d, \u201cAs Rome Burns\u201d, \u201cThe Coffin Ships\u201d, the surprise \u201cHeathen Tribes\u201d and the finisher \u201cEmpire Falls\u201d earned much jubilation.
\nLong Distance Calling The tent won an astonishing number of spectators for the last dance. The Postrock turned out to be the right chilling as rocking soundtrack to bring this wonderful festival to an ideal end.
