This year the more new band are playing not even on New Forces Stage also in (Second Boško Bursać) and more band line up playing on the Second stage that the main stage called (Lemmy Kilmister Stage) on the main stage most the biggest bands the headliners. The main stage started 4 PM in afternoon and the second stage started at 2 pm. Most band schedules are overlap between the main stage, second stage, and new Force stage. At the New Forces stage started since Friday until the next weeks Friday at Mein Stage (Lemmy Kilmister Stage) and second stage (Second Boško Bursać) the first band will play from Monday until Friday.
Monday the first day is the horrible day’s thunder, windy raining, it makes impossible to go out from the tent. just lucky that my tent was in the corner which not so much win come blow up at the time I was thought that my tent will be flying away. Because of the storm that struck, there have been changes in the environment and also that the New Forces Stage completely destroyed it make not able a band is playing on Monday, it was 5 Bands canceled because it makes not possible to performance.
After getting some Breakfast we ready to go to the second stage ( Boško Bursać) ground even weathers still not friendly still win and cloudy but it better than rain and thunder. At 2 pm on the Second stage there the first Heavy Metal band from Germany 
Reverend Hound. Ready to destroy the stage. Five Munich guys ready show up to the audience to make warm up which old school Heavy metal mix of thrash metal with great heavy classic riffs, melodies and high and clear voice. the band was quite long in the metal scene, founded in 2004 with under name Savage after view time changes the line up of the member band until they decide changes band name from Savage become Reverend Hound. Reverend Hound name was taken from some a game “Fallout 3”. angry and aggressive performance it makes cooling up more audience come to join with at the second stage.
Only 15 minutes break, time for the next band enter the Second (Boško Bursać) the punk/death metal (death-roll) from Slovenia 
Hellcrawler. the band had most local audience support to keep crowded going on, with heavy stoner atmosphere riffage, dirty sound, growling vocal and there a lot of old-school death metal element great song composition, that make the right time to warm-up the audience and started to build some circle pit. they never thought that was crowded at second stage ground they are just realized that come to the end of the set.
Just miss seeing Rapid force because 
was big rain come down that was not be able to see them. seem rain stops, Just hurry up catching the next band from the Northern Ireland, the Death/Doom Metal, The Crawling. The trio guys can reach more audience to into Boško Bursać, which many different elements sound kind like Paradise lost, Bolt Thrower and Katatonia. from clean guitar sound until the heavy sound, slow down break which mix with a guttural vocal to combine melancholy with weight, that makes blow you up into another world.
Finally, the first band will be hit the Main stage (Lemmy Kilmister Stage) Na Cruithne was getting ready to rock as opener band of Metaldays main stage. The Irish folk band, after a couple of set lists, are playing set list on the sky come closer following windy and start raining and the weather getting worse it makes they had to stop the show a black drop in front of the main stage are close to half an hour to protect all equipment.
Just hope the rain stops before Brutal Death metal band from Malta, Beheaded hit the second stage but looks like the rain not gonna be stops. that band I just waiting for and just lucky some friend are borrowing me the raincoat and Camera protect to cover my Camera from the rain. quickly running to the second stage just lucky they just started to play, was crowded never thought about. was great to see them live, was great live performance, it was fit together with the weather because the sound comes out from the stage like Thousands of rain stones and it never stops really brutal with the groovy heavy riff and faster with blast speed drummer mix with guttural and grow vocals it makes perfect sound. usually, they are not allowed to play because of the bad weather, but they said we still play they will not make disappointed of them fans but after view song the weather more bad until the rain come inside of the stage it was impossible to keep continue the show.
while the show at the (Boško Bursać stage) continued as soon as the worst of the rain has passed. finally, the rain stops time to prepare the stuff and move to Boško Bursać stage at the time the Thrash metal Suicidal Angels from Greek already stand on the stage following the audience come over it make the crowded react well. the four of Greek guys was full of energy, the band obviously inspired by the likes of Slayer you make he ar from the riffs also from the composition of the song. crowd moving and moshing in the mud. a great performance they mix the set list from the old song and the new song was promoted their latest release album.
we just passed to see Loudness at the main stage. time is still keep move on never realize soon will be the next band gonna hit the main stage, at the moment was so crowded at main stage ground wait for the Florida heavy metal band, finally, Iced Earth hit the stage. I have been seem them a couple of time before. Heavy Metal mixed with Thrash and Power Metal. a live performance was very good, Singer Stu Block has a strong expressive voice that fits wonderfully into the music style. it was a pleasure to w
atching them at the Stage.
Over at the Lemmy stage, the crowds have amassed, waiting for Marilyn Manson to come out behind the black veil obscuring the stage. after took so long preparing stuff and sound check at the main stage. I have been seeming Marilyn Monson live performance one time, I can’t say that music that I want to listen. he also doesn’t allow all photographer enter the photo pit only some view of the photographer can enter the photo pit. I just watching only the first song while trying to get some photo of him. the performance does not manage to grab me Fairly. not only that Manson was cut the show about 20 minutes short, who are big fans of him was disappointed.
Finally, we are done for today, even at second stage will one more band will play Venom inc. but we are too lazy and has a lot to do with out tent after 3 time Storm, windy and rain just hope our tent still there.

At the beginning was a project band which members of Municipal Waste and Darkest Hour. Sound and mix with hardcore punk, faster, harder, aggressive and so struggling with groove and catchiness. The approach is very simple and the riffs.
Delightfully rough Black Metal from Norway Svarttjern. it was a project band by to brother Hans Fyrste and HaaN in 2003after that they decided to bring more musicians to the band to be able to start doing some live shows and new levels. full emotion and motivation, it was impression live performance usually, I'm not really into Black Metal but at the song "All Hail Satan" from the new album Dødsskrik was the great track. also, the crowd that the ranks fill up quickly.

It was the first time ever I've been to the so-called Metaldays festival, which is located in Tolmin, Slovenia, surrounded by mountains that together with the blue water of the Soča River shape an incredibly beautiful landscape. Without any doubt, this was the greatest festival location I have ever seen! After seeing pictures of the festival every year, it became my dream to once visit Metaldays and join all the Metalheads traveling there from all around the world. 
At around 2:30 p.m., the band Zix from Beirut, Lebanon, entered the stage as the opening band at Metaldays. The band was formed in 2010 and they play a quite classical type of Metal that sounds like Iron Maiden or Manowar, but female fronted, with such strong, fresh and heavy vocals, that their performance sure enough not only surprises me. Apart from that, their show was awesome as they actively included the audience and motivated them to join the stage. During the show, more and more people converged and came to watch the band.
A loud, fast sound mixed with groovy rhythm and solo guitars grabbed immediately my attention when I turned around seeing four young guys ready to destroy their stage: Deserted Fear, the Death Metal band from Germany, which is one of Germany's most successful and quite well-known bands in the country's Metal scene. I already saw them quite a few times while performing live, but it is always a pleasure for me to see them on stage. Deserted Fear was clearly one of the most eagerly awaited bands among three other acts at Metaldays. Their 40 minutes setlist was excellent and made the audience scream for more songs, chanting: “We want more! We want more!”
another Death Metal band from Germany, was next. Powerful and aggressive vocals with a vocal range from deep to “scream as hell”. Very catchy and groovy rhythms, at times, interrupted by blast beats and the sound of distorted guitars. Sadly it was their last show. Even though the band's name sounded familiar to me, I've never seen them live before their show at Metaldays. They were able to motivate the whole audience to headbang. Everyone really enjoyed the concerts and it was great for me to be able to see at least one show of them, although it was their last one.
The Italian Death Metal band Fleshgod Apocalypse from Preugia/Rome spectacularly captured the main stage. They are definitely a unique, epic band with symphonic and orchestral elements. Brutal and fast with blast beat, fast rhythms, and melodic backing vocals which create without any doubt a completely epic sound. Their song “The Violation” for example features many kinds of different elements from very fast drums to melodic rhythms with Death Metal guitar riffs. It is almost impossible for me to describe how awesome that song is. For me personally that was one of the most interesting performance. Some crazy metalheads in the audience started a huge circle pit including a “wall of death” at the end of the show. What an amazing concert!
And there they were! The US band Sacred Reich who delivering a big package of Thrash Metal on the main stage at Metaldays. Formed in 1985, they are one of the most successful ensembles in the metal scene. This band is bursting with energy and power, which made the audience fly into a frenzy even though it was raining heavily. A really fantastic show and the band has a very good sense of humor.
After a very long sound check, the Old School Thrash Metal legends Testament (USA) finally entered the stage with the Front of House crowded with people eagerly waiting for the show to begin. It was great to see so many different generations of metalheads united summoning the band by chanting “Testament! Testament! Testament!” The concert itself lasted about one and a half hour and the band took good care that everyone in the audience has a really excellent time.
