Yep, it´s soon time again to attend the Copenhell festival: http://copenhell.dk/" rel="nofollow - http://copenhell.dk/
The 2016 version of the festival includes quite a few interesting artists (check the lineup here http://copenhell.dk/line-up/" rel="nofollow - http://copenhell.dk/line-up/ . Not every artist is announced yet), and of course I´m going
 : I´m personally looking forward to Black Sabbath, Megadeth, Alice Cooper, King Diamond (hell yeah...playing the full Abigail album
 ), Blind Guardian, Decapitated, Red Warszawa, Entombed A.D., Converge, Tribulation, and With the Dead. And as usual I´ll probably be positively surprised by some of the other artists when I see them performing onstage. Hopefully a few more old school death metal bands will be announced. It´s the only thing I miss this year. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

It´ll be my 5th year at the festival, which has gotten better and better each year. The lineup is of course a bit up and Down, but of course they can´t only cater to my personal tastes (even though they should of course indulge the true metal king   ). ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

Great lineup, I always get jealous of European countries because of all the metal fests that are over there. Here in the US the best I get are some great bands among some duds playing during a destruction derby.  ------------- If I say fuck two more times that's forty-six fucks in this fucked up rhyme |

If you weren´t jealous, you would have bad taste in music ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

I might go. Last year, I didn't feel like it. But I might go this year, if I have the time for it. -------------

It´s become a tradition for me. It´ll be the 5th time I attend. I didn´t go the first two years of the festival´s existence and bitterly regret that now. It´s a really fine Little festival with around 10.000 - 15.000 people, which is many, but not too many. The toilet fascilities are OK, the food is alright, and there aren´t long lines to purchase beer  ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

It is definitely what we call "hyggelig". -------------

I really want to go to Copenhell (it seems like a nice, cosy festival and its an excuse to visit Copenhagen. Also, I wont have to sleep in a tent) at some point but it probably wont be this year. ------------- Þessi undirskrift kemur málinu bara alls ekkert við! |

^It´s possible to sleep in the tent camp, which I do, but the festival site is so close to the center of Copenhagen, that renting a hotel room or something like that isn´t an issue either (if you got the Money to buy). If you enjoy reefers the festival site is placed right next to Christiania, so that´s not exactly a minus either . ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

That is what Brutal Truth found out when they played Copenhell. -------------

Just home from 3 days of beer, beer, fun, great gigs, crazy hot weather, a Little rain, and more beer. Although I personally could have wished for more bands in the extreme end of the spectrum, it was a great festival overall. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

Lucky man. The rest of us have had three days of work, rain and a country disintegrating before your eyes. Festival sounds great. Some of my best memories have been of festivals.

Black Sabbath last night blew me away, but Alice Cooper, King Diamond, Decapitated, Entombed A.D. and Rival Sons, can also be mentioned among the highligts for me. Kadaver was also great, and of course Red Warscawa, but the latter is predominantly for drunk Danes, as they sing in our native language. I love that band, they are so primitive yet still hilariously funny . I don´t enjoy missing one of the great giraffes I´d like to cross off my list of artists I have to see before I die , but it was a damn flood. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

I wish we had those kinds of festivals here. Need to move to Europe i guess! Sounds great. Glad you had an excellent time! -------------

Are you not a fan of the Brexit? I have been reading all kinds of benefits of being independent. Guess no one will really know what to make of it until the dust settles -------------

This is the second year in a row that I didn't go to Copenhell. Maybe next year. -------------

Glad to hear you enjoyed it Jonas. Did you manage to catch Tribulation and With The Dead?

^Oh yeah saw both shows. With the Dead was late at night, and I was tired and my friend hated it, so it was a mixed experience. I´d say a medium OK show, but nothing too special. Tribulation was pretty cool. They on the other hand played really early in the day, and I´d like to see them in a dark Club late at night instead. If I have to make a comparison to another act they reminded me slightly of Triptykon. They had a really energetic female guitarist. They should drop the stupid corpse paint though. Doesn´t really suit their music IMO. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |
