Ragnarök Festival
The 6th Ragnarök Festival is coming up and it is promised to be one of the best ones so far. With bands like DORNENREICH, KORPIKLAANI, MÅNEGARM and EINHERJER (who will have a reunion show this year!), there is probably something for everybody in the line-up. FJOERGYN will have a record-release show. And other bands such as DARK FORTRESS, FINSTERFORST, HEIDEVOLK and THYRFING will definitely get your blood boiling. After switching to the Stadthalle Lichtenfels, there is now room for 5000 pagan-, viking- and black metal-fans to bang their heads. So, come and enjoy the great bands, have a beer and get the party started!

Reel Big Fish + Special Guest
Having already established themselves in the Ska and Punk scene, REEL BIG FISH meanwhile became successful on an international scale as well. Originally, the band consists of Aaron Barrett (guitar, vocals), Matt Wong (bass) and Andrew Gonzales (drums). The three lads got to know each other in the late 90s in Huntington Beach, California. Back then they covered rock classics and the Top 40 songs like many bands do it in likely every city. The trio plays the few gigs at this time on bad parties.

Berlin-based band Blutengel is a one-of-a-kind phenomenon. In less than a decade’s time, the group headed by singer and mastermind Chris Pohl has become synonymous with a unique and often imitated stylistic symbiosis of Gothic, Pop and electronic club music and has shaped an entire genre. Over the years, Blutengel have never stagnated, instead enhancing and developing their trademark style with every new album. But even according to their own high standards, their new long player “Schwarzes Eis” is nothing short of a revelation. Easily Blutengel’s most versatile and ambitious work to date, the group manages to fuse the best of all its different creative periods and to cross borders without sacrificing its own identity. - Details

POLARKREIS 18
After they had listened to that song on the radio in autumn 2008, many people called their radio stations and asked which band had been responsible for the catchy melody of ‘Allein Allein’. The answer: POLARKREIS 18 - a young band coming from Dresden, Germany, that has played music together since 1998. They fascinate a whole republic and even other European states (e. g. Denmark) with their sound, a composition of pop, electro, Synth-pop and experimental style.
