The Bullhead - Issue 2/2025

The Bullhead is in position between the two main stages, campgrounds are filling up, and Wacken’s official Magazine is back with a brand-new issue!

40 pages in the print edition on the Holy Ground, and a whopping 50 in the digital one—packed to the brim with exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes insights, and special reports. There’s also a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, of course. But heads-up: we were only able to write it in time for the digital version, since the print files had already been sent off when the world learned about the death of the “Prince of Darkness.”

As always, The Bullhead is completely free for our readers—and available in both German and English.

In this issue:
– We chat with King Diamond about his secret to hitting those insanely high falsetto notes, smelly stage outfits, and his first impressions of the Wacken Open Air

– Sharon den Adel from Within Temptation talks about her commitment to helping Ukraine, both from afar and on the ground
– Vocalist Skynd explains why she sings about real-life murder cases—and whether it’s the victims or the perpetrators that take center stage
– In our feature on the new Space Camp, scientist Dr. Benjamin Winkel reveals that yes, alcohol does exist in space
– And Riffi Raffi, guitarist of Heavysaurus, shares why dinos and dragons are a perfect fit for W:O:A.
