(I forgot my camera, so unfortunately I didnt get any pictures from the show..)

So.. I'm sitting in my camp.. drunk off my ass from a Cuban themed pre-party.. I believe that one of the concerts I have looked most forward to this year starts an hour earlier than in my head - so I got the fuck up and out!

Ran.. ran.. ran my ass off! - Got to the pavillion stage - just in time..

The first riffs came puring out from a band in total confidence of their stage-prescence and heavy metal style (both in music and in outfit) - they love to be here!

And all of that combined makes me even more excited to actually be there with them to complete the illusion of total metal darkness this sunny afternoon! and lead singer Raz (Rasmus) sounds even better live than on record - wow! The only let-down were some of the more melodic parts that felt a little unfulfilled in context to the rest of the show - but then again - at least I had a chance to catch my breath!

Call it sludge, call it doom, call it stoner - call it whatever! I call it rock n' roll in it's purity and when it all peaks and collapses in awesomness with the hit (yes, it's a hit!) Rise Of The Lizard King.. Yeah - some guy in an orange vest even had to make me calm down.. - you can't help but feeling thankful to be alive!

So if the rest of this years festival goes as well as this first musical experience, I can tell with confidence that this will be the best festival ever!

5,5/6 stars

So please come to Denmark again - soon!
