Day four: Death and heavy metal, rounded with a pinch of folk!

12/04/2014

Another day, another announcement: We have three new names for our lineup and one of them is the first death metal band of our calendar. And of-course there also new winners from our big raffle!

 

Cryptopsy

They have released 7 albums and gathered fans around the globe: Cryptopsy from Canada! Their brutal and technical death metal comes to W:O:A for the second time (their first and until now, their only W:O:A show was in 2001!) and we are counting the days to their return!

 

More about Cryptopsy

 

Godsized

Godsized is inspired by Black Sabbath, Led Zepplin and Jägermeister and they already played some support gigs for bands like Black Label Society. Different magazines certify that Godsized will have a great future. So be sure to check them out at the festival 2015 when they play their first show at the W:O:A.
