Hellfire Festival Day 2

Back for more!!!!!!

GODSIZED
Pounding rhythms, strong vocals, good choruses. Good stage presence and sense of humour. Great way to start the day. For the record, I can forgive the singer for wearing LED ZEP shirt

RSJ
Angry shouty metal, unfortunately it was nothing original and could have been any other band and looked like they just come out of their bedrooms.

THE DEFILED
Really energetic set met by a strangely apathetic audience, real shame as they were wasted. Look forward to seeing them support Death Stars

THE MORE I SEE
Speed/power metal showing European influences. Singer is the bastard son of Justin Hawkins and pulled some of the funniest metal faces ever. They did a fantastic Iron Maiden cover and had a great song called "What is worse than the truth"

THE ROTTED
Hardcore at its best with a hyperactive singer who spent more time running around in the audience than on stage

PANIC CELL
Awesome band full of energy, really got the crowd going. Not sure passing Jager round the fans was wise given the age of some of them. Sam caught a Jager cap which was thrown out so he was delighted. I got a little too close to the singer for my liking, LOL, thank god for deodorant

PIRATE METAL, NUFF SAID!

FIREWIND
Wow, Firewind were incredible live. Their European tinged meoldic metal sound was reproduced perfectly and everything was crystal clear. They really worked the crowd and lots of chanting and singing along was done, real treat was their cover of Maniac.
