Of Mice & Men - European Tour 2019 - Special Guest: Bleed From Within

The history of the band OF MICE & MEN, founded in California in 2009, resembles a roller coaster ride of emotions and internal band tension. Not many formations look back on such a turbulent history in terms of style, line-up and internal conflicts. All this didn’t prevent the rock band between Post-Hardcore, Metalcore and Nu Metal, which only shrunk to a quartet at the end of last year, from a remarkable success in their home country. Their third album, ‘Restoring Force’ released in 2014, climbed to number 4 in the US billboard charts and also recorded the greatest international successes in their career to date.

• Amphitheater Gelsenkirchen
• Rock Hard Festival

With a strong programme, the Rock Hard Festival opened the Hard’n’Heavy festival season. As usual, more than 7,500 fans celebrated with high spirit during the Pentecost weekend at the Gelsenkirchen Amphitheater.

“The party mood could be felt in every corner of the festival area, the weather was of a good will most of the time. Bands like ANTHRAX, SKID ROW, or LIZZY BORDEN offered excellent entertainment”, remembers Rock Hard publisher, Holger Stratmann, the already seventeenth festival.

In 1989, the singer became victim of an armed robbery and since then, he is paralyzed and is sitting in a wheelchair. “When you ask for a “proof” of the positive power of music - even of the hardest Death Metal - then you have to say his name.”
