Important

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

Three new acts for 2018 behind door 4!

Created by WackenJasper
12/04/2017

Today's band package is a wild mix and should satisfy a lot of different tastes. Next to one W:O:A veteran we can also announce two debutants. And we can also announce the next winners of our big raffle!

 

Oomph!

Oomph! have rocked Wacken several times already - their first show here was back in 1996! Now it is time again, the German rock band will return once more to play another powerful show.

 

Vallenfyre

The death metal project Vallenfyre is active since 2010 and gained a lot of attention already. Not without a reason, the musicians are known from acts like Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride and the sound combines Entombed, Bloodbath and early Paradise Lost.

 

Long Distance Calling

Long Distance Calling are one of the spearheads of the German post-rock scene. The band creates its very own cosmos with its unmistakable sound. We are looking forward to their debut!

 

And here are the x-mas winners from the 3rd of December 2017:

Klaus S - Diez

Frank M - Gudensberg

Stephanie L - Erfurt

Florian E - Mirabel et Blacons (France)

Mikko K - Kuusankoski (Finland)

 

All winners will be informed by email!

 

Tomorrow we will announce the next bands and xmas winners!
