Samsas Traum & Special Guest

A few years ago, in 1999, SAMSAS TRAUM released their official debut "Die Liebe Gottes - Eine märchenhafte Black Metal Operette" [Trans.: "The Love of God - a Black Metal Fairytale Opera"] and it divided the scene: Some people said that the band was the best newcomer of the year, other people rather started to hate them, at least also because of some provocative statements by Alexander Kaschte. Now, after having released some albums settled far away from Black or extreme Metal, SAMSAS TRAUM are returning to their roots: The two new albums, which were released in winter 2007 via Trisol Records are also heading new and old ways: While the first Album is some kind of a Black Metal-Epos ("Heiliges Herz - Das Schwert deiner Sonne") (at least the band calls it that way), the other one is an acoustic and very personal one ("Wenn schwarzer Regen..."). And again the opinions of the music press are rather divided.

On 27th and 28th June the biggest festival of East Wurttemberg “Rock am Härtzfeldsee” already takes place for the 12th time. After the sold out show in the past years with Alice Cooper, Motörhead, In Extremo, Saxon etc the 12th issue promises to be a diverse selection of top quality acts, musical delicacies and ambitious newcomers.

The Youth Dischingen e.V could allure no one less than APOCALYPTICA for the headlining position on Saturday. There are only a few rock bands on this planet that don’t want to be considered as unique. APOCALYPTICA from Finland deserve that more than the most of them. Very original and innovative in every sense as these classical trained musicians sound like nothing and no one on the history of music.
