This article is VERY old (older than 2 years)!

The bands behind the 19th door!

Created by WackenJasper
12/19/2017

Today we add two bands from the other side of the planet (as seen from Wacken) and one German act to the lineup of W:O:A 2018!

 

Dezperadoz

The Western Metal act Dezperadoz has already played threet imes at W:O:A and now they will return once again! The band was founded by Alex Kraft (Onkel Tom) and Tom Angelripper (Onkel Tom, Sodom) originally and combines Heavy Metal with Thrash elements and the usual Wild West soundtrack.

 

Alien Weaponry

These three folks are hailing from New Zealand and they will play at Wacken for the very first time! Their music combines Thrash Metal with traditional Māori music. Even some songs are sung in the Māori language. We're looking forward to have them!

 

Clowns

The Hardcore / Punk Rock outfit Clowns from Australia will make its Wacken debut too! Mangy and gawking, but not dull, is the maxim of the young band. This year they have released their new album "Lucid Again" which they are now promoting with several concerts all over the world.

 

And here are the x-mas winners from the 18th of December 2017:

Anita B - Geislingen

Elisa G - Weimar

Simone D - Wuppertal

Daniel E - Helsingborg (Sweden)

Dan D - Skælskør (Denmark)

 

All winners will be informed by email!

 

Tomorrow we will announce the next bands and xmas winners!
