So this was the final round of the W:O:A Metal Battle Switzerland 2010 and I have to tell you it was great! We saw 3 great bands in 3 different genres on stage. November-7 with their between-Linkin-Park-and-Evanescence style metal, Arkhan with their straight in the face, heavy, high-energy death-thrash-metal or Hathors playing high-energy, crazy, handmade old-fashioned Rock. 3-times great fun! It was a hard decision to make. Finally the jury – beeing 3 members from the french part of switzerland and me being from the german part – decided to call Hathors the winner of the Metal Battle 2010. This is the first time since the Metal Battle came to Switzerland actually a band from the german part won! Congratulations.
Thanks for this great event. It was cool to be part of it!
Wo
w, no updates since more than a month. Well, here is something for you. Tomorrow the ‘Finale’ of the W:O:A Metal Battle Switzerland 2010 will be held ni Monthey (Switzerland). Being a jury member I will have the honour to choose the winner who will be playing at the famous Wacken Open Air in Germany. The finalists are Arkhan, Hathors and November7. Each of these bands has already proven to bring a good show to the stage. So this will be a great evening with great bands at the club ‘Pont-Rouge’ in Monthey.
