Arch Enemy is a Swedish melodic death metal band, originally a supergroup, from Halmstad, formed in 1995. Its members were in bands such as Carcass, Armageddon, Carnage, Mercyful Fate, Spiritual Beggars, Nevermore, and Eucharist. After the amusement created by the meet&greet event this gig confirmed me what I was thinking about the band and specifically about Alissa: they perform thousand times better in a venue hall instead of an open stage. I don't know what is happening with Alissa voice in open air festivals (as we have experienced during this year) but that night in Razz was unforgettable, best gig with Alissa by far, transmitting a blast of energy with a gorgeous sound. However, I continue remembering Angela, no one like her !

Wintersun is a Finnish heavy metal band from Helsinki originally formed as the sideproject of Jari Mäenpää, then vocalist and guitarist of folk metal band Ensiferum. It was a shame but I had to have a rest on this gig to be completely fresh for Alissa and boys, so I only attended 2 songs that it were surprisingly good. It's a band that I would like to see again in a full concert.

Tribulation are a Swedish heavy metal band from Arvika that formed in 2005. An interesting style mix between death and black metal, combined with a remarkable lighting.

Jinjer is a Ukrainian metalcore band formed in 2009. Their playing style incorporates elements of death metal, progressive rock and nu metal. They are future, they are 4 virtuous commanded by an unique singer as Tatiana. Undoubtedly, the most impressive band I've met after Gojira and one of my top criteria to choose gigs and festivals. Who is gonna be the one?
