Party-San Report on Friday 11.08.2017
We hope that on the second day Party-San is better than the first day, but today it looks the same when I am wake up in the morning it still rains and it does not stop. just hope it will be stopped before the first band gonna play at Main stage. after few hour wait finally rain are stop but from far away seem the black cloud is moving to us seem gonna big rain is coming again, just hurry to get some breakfast and after that prepare our stuff for second day adventure at Party-San.
Today will gonna start with party Circle Pit as a tradition at Party-San on Friday which Grindcore band is opening the Main stage. it has quite crowed at the time which most of the Audience wearing a funny costume waiting for the party with Gut. Gut is a Germany Grindcorband band. which style is characterized in comparison to the classic slower and rock as simple, but they seem not a Grindcore there something missing in the Grindcore category. anyway, the band can reach to make all the audience wake up to get warm which big a Circle-Pit in middle stage ground with all kinds of funny characters, who were running around in a crazy way.
The real legend of Underground Death Metal from Finland Demilich,
which formed in the early 1990s. since 1993 the band has been few time are reforming. even though their only album is almost 25 years back. The applause after their appearance was great and the guys had deserved it. with delivers nasty old school sound it made the crowd going crazy. it was a great performance.
Continue with Thrash Metal from New York Demolition Hammer. The crazy New Yorkers were back with a bang and it’s a bang that would not leave ahead in an upright position. with brutal raw sound, pounding songs puked out by angry old men, it has been delivered what a force, and what kind of energy they had. Steve (vocals, bass), who told the crowd that they just are not crazy enough and he wants to see more crowd surf come to the stage. I think that the amount of “fuck
” that was said during this gig was surpassed by nothing or it was a lost of the words to say. it was fun to see them on the stage with groovy and catchy sound.
Next will join us on the main stage a Melodic Death Metal from Finland Kalmah. even the band are not my taste but they are all very good musicians and great experience in live performance. The band influenced by death metal, Thrash Metal, and Speed Metal exhibits some neo-classical metal elements in their music along with prominent keyboard melodies.
Finally the band I was waiting for will hit the Main stage Vital Remains. The band I wanted since before to see in live now they are in from of me. after few minutes after check sound come a guys from backstage walking into font stage with a book in his hand. I was thought he will read the book but not I was burned the book. it was vocalist Brian Werner very ceremoniously burning with a torch an old testament. to begin to distribute wax and speed with “Where Is Your God Now” took from the late album from 2007 “Icons of Evil” where already we could enjoy riffs brilliantly interpreted and of Brian Werner in all his splendor to the voice, it was impressive which speed and brutal sound faster riffs mix blast beat a drum and very technical with an awesome guitar solo. “Icons of Evil” where I emphasize the double hype that at times looks like a machine gun; guitarists capable of combining murderous rhythmic foundations, what for a great show it was a blast to see them here at Party-San 2017.
Uada a Melodic Black Metal from the USA will hit the stage, the 4 guys are wearing the black hoody and covered the 
face it was remembered me some of a band from polish Mgla. With their only album so far, “Devoid Of Light”, they have powerful material in their luggage and manage to cover the festival area in the dark despite the persistent daylight. The four characters, who also make themselves at Pillorian and Infernus, play their set down fast and error-free and leave tons of satisfied festival visitors. Very strong performance.
A Finnish Pagan Metal mixture elements of folk and Black Metal, Moonsorrow. the guys entering the main stage with a white mask with splashing blood on their face and body which hastily presented their old sound, seem ready to bring a darkness atmosphere for us. which are black metal in basis, but add more melodies to their sound, an epic feel. “Jumalten Aika ” which sounded forceful and precise followed by the magnificent and intense” Suden Tunti “. In the final track came “Sankaritarina” and “Ihmisen Aika (Kumarrus Pimeyteen) which demonstrated all their quality with epic melodies, great choirs and quite aggressive. great performance gives the length of the songs might have
been somewhat short in duration.
Unwittingly the time passes unnoticed, which five bands are gonna play on the main stage. before the next band hit the stage it time gets some food and grabs some more beer. from there corner, we can see all crew are busy at main stage prepare for the next band Aura Noir. the classic Black Thrash they are has been at Party-San more lest for 7 years ago. the band Sounds like venom in hard and shreds like hell. great musician tight performance.
The Polish old-school Death Metal from Vader. although are rain but most of the fans of them going crazy waiting for the show begin, the most of metal head know them the band has been delivered many great albums. The band was formed in 1983, the same year as the first death metal pioneers Possessed and Death but at that time Vader was a Heavy Speed Metal band after they are developing into Thrash Metal and finally Death Metal which brings out the first demo album in 1986 “Live in Decay”. They are unique and had own characteristic music style and killer sound with mixed from faster in to slow riffs and groovy. which great melodies in every single track. it makes all of the audience going crazy with circle pit and continually crowd surf make all the security keep busy. it was great to see them and listening all great track from them. killer performance.
The South Carolina Death Metal band Nile. 
The mix between rough Death Metal and Egyptian, brutal riffs combined with melodies that will obviously remind you of the Middle East, definitely catching on. I’m just curious with a new member of Nile, without Dallas Toler-Wade on the stage, it weird. but what I hear from the stage the band seem are the same as Nile i know before. they did good work the band still worked as like usually.”Unas Slayer of the Gods ” “Sacrifice Unto Sebek” was awesome and excellent Egyptian atmospheric intro. both of the track blows me up and most audience going mad down the stage headbang and crowd surf .was excellent show great sound and awesome setlist.
Almost the end of the event today on Friday at Party-San which a Swedish Doom Metal Candlemas come up next at Main Stage. The band had a problem with the Airplane which some of the luggage and music equipment are relocated. they must borrow some of the equipment from another band that they can play. They started their recital so that to the rhythm of the intro were leaving the members of the band little by little until the appearance of their vocalist Matos Levén, to open with ” Mirror Mirror ” The voice and the stage presence of Mats Leven take the attention of an audience that responded to each one of the provocations of the same one. awesome performance but that band are not touching my felling it feels no something special from them.
The last band which the headline band to close of the Main Stage on Friday Autopsy. 
A death metal band, founded in 1987 in the United States by Chris Reifert and Eric Cutler. the band was broken up in 1995 and reunited in 2009. they band was one of a pioneering band in the death metal and death-doom genres. which Chris Reifert the drummer as vocal, he seems enjoyed from back the drum. growling while playing the drum. it was awesome it hard to sing in same time play drum. it was excellent with roaring guttural, crude and sustained guitars and most of the old school and slow deep riffs, like “Critical Madness” That riff is incredible but simple. very tight show and good atmosphere in the public for the land band.
Was a great time, showed a lot of great bands hang out with friends, even the weather is not so friendly just hope my Tend are not wet that I can get some sleep and save the energy for the next day.

Party-San on Thursday 10.08.2017
After one year waiting for one of great Festival open air. Party-San. how excited we are can’t wait until we arrived there, which interesting band line up want to see today. But we cant made it because we had a problem with our car on the way. The first begins after around 80 km we are drive and the car started strangely and which some light machine is turn on. around 2 hours we wait for someone to fix the car and finally can continue to drive which hopefully that car can bring us to Schlotheim but it comes to the second problem that car cant move anymore which must bring to the car workshop to fix. we get the exchanges but we must wait around 4 hours. finally, around 08 PM we can drive and about 09.30 PM we arrive at the camping ground.
Dawn of Disease
that was the first band we see at Tent stage. The Germany old school Death Metal with hardness and melody, subliminal harmonies and killer riffs are accompanied by rapid blast beats and pounding double-basses which between dark growlings and aggressive screams vocal reaching delivery big crowd on the time in Tent stage. Even we are not seeing from the beginning but the guys can bring up all the audience into crazy the big party in Tent stage.
Continue to the Main stage catching Germany Black Metal Urfaust which dark blue light come out 
from the Main stage seem to look matching with a black Metal atmosphere. they delivery us an intense show with the ambient melody took over the darkness night, which seems as though the atmosphere was nice, the rain and the darkness of night gave more emphasis of ambient sound come from the stage. Even as the show is started in same time begin a big rain seem most of the audience tried to find staying at the Main stage ground enjoyed all along the show.
Rain, windy, wet and could mix together just hopefully rain stops when the legend of Thrash Metal band from the USA hit the Mainstage. After few minutes break after the check sound done time for old school T
hrash Metal Overkill ready to begin the show although the weather gets worse wind mix with rain it was very uncomfortable. the frontman Robert Ellsworth best known as Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth, always pay attention always keep in touch with the audience he knows how to keep his fans keep busy down the stage. even it was uncomfortable cold and silence on the bones as but the audience still enjoy es such of the tracks of “Rotten To The Core” from “Feel the Fire”, “Rattlesnake Electric” classic and “Hate” with. was very tight performance.
The Highline of Party-San on Thursday Abbath, where is a somewhat humid atmosphere and with the night entrance, was ready to unload on the Party San, where appeared with some delay. With a lot of solemnity in the atmosphere and with his traditional start spitting fire, which at times may be something comical and even he takes it with a little guile, Abbath and his were throwing their Black Metal more accessible for labeling it somehow and where it is logical a good part of the show was supported by the band that made known to him, Immortal. The most followed of the song track were are took from some track from Immortal, like the crude “One By One”, with an outstanding game of lights that gave more emphasis to its action. There is a clear difference between the songs themselves and those of Immortal, which are obviously the most followed in a concert that became somewhat linear and despite the game of lights and fire, he lacked some hook to connect to most of the public. even I show them few of time but always nice to see them again here at Party-San. great performance as like usually.
Although the weather today is not so friendly as like last year which most of the time rain and wind but it is nice to be here again. After the last band is done we move to Party Tent grab some Bier join to some another friend enjoying to listening some music from DJ before we hit back to our tend to sleep.

Metaldays Thursday 27.07.2017 Day-4
After long sleep even still tired but it makes not possible to get some more sleep because the sunlight through into my tent it was warm. another side was great to get some fresh air in the morning while enjoying to see the amazing view from our camping ground. time to get shower and breakfast before leaving the camping ground.
Before moving to stage ground we went to beach ground because only that place is still alive. Like, as usual, there is a lot of activity you can do like yoga sports drawing or get some relax to see the nice Soca river view.
From Beach ground, we move to Second stage (Boško Bursać Stage) with Gust the Hardcore punk band from Trollhättan, Sweden. The opening band on the fourth day of Metaldays. The unique style of mixes crust rhythmics with hardcore verve without the result sounding somehow dully. 30 minute long was great enough to get us wake up a great band to warm up in the early noon.
Continued with the second band the Post-apocalyptic Heavy Metal from Norwegian Chontaraz. The band inspired by the aggression of Dimmu Borgir, the compelling elements of Rammstein and the epic elements of Sabaton. Epic metal meets modern riffing, gruff vocals go hand in hand with excellent cleans and a heavy, dark atmosphere is accentuated by some great melodies. even there were not so many people are joined.
Time to get some food and of course Beers before we moving to the main stage to see the opening band. 
Nemost French melodic death metal. The band was formed in 2005 by bringing out two albums. simple and catchy riffs mixed with some black metal element. Technicality and melody coupled with the raw death metal aggression. seem all the audience enjoys full keep staying with them until the end the show.
Cobra and the Lotus Heavy Metal from Canada. The band formed in 2009 by singer “Kobra Paige”, the drummer is the only other member who has been a part of the band from the beginning. The band sound kind like modern power metal for a power metal crowd. The band demonstrates its power metal credentials with slick. They promoted their recent release “Prevail I”, the first of two to come out this year. During the show, they are always in contact with the audience and the audience also sing along with them together. They are good both in terms of music and stage performances.
Move to the New Forces Stage before we reach the second stage to pursue Melodic Death Metal from Niederrhein, Bettlesword from Germany. It was pretty much a crowd at that time at the New Forces Stage waiting for the show to start. The band was formed in 1999 and has already issued out two Demos and two full albums. in their show is very good, they can make the audience entertained and survive until the end of the show. was a blast to see them.
Quickly back to the second stage to joined see the Goregrind band from 
Netherland Goregrind Rectal Smegma. Formed in 2003 under the name Carnal Rancidity, One of the most successful goregrind in the extream metal scene has been out on the road to South Europe with Rompeprop and once through central Europe with Cliteater and Rompeprop on the Goregrind over Europe tour. The band very entertaining time for the audience to get party time before the show is begin was already crowded at second stage which a lot kind of unique outfit with a lot of stuff is flying in the air. The big circle pit is begun following with continued crowd surf was total chaos at the moment at second stage ground.
Back to the main stage there six guys from Andorra Spain the Progressive Death Metal band Persefone ready begin the show, The band’s name is derived from Persephone, a figure in Greek Mythology, the band was formed in 2001. THe band sound kind like deeply influenced by the ’90s melodeath, progressive black and prog scenes including. Great singer always moves into right and left the stage by the second song he went down the stage meet the face to face with the audience. was tight, precise and energetic performance.
Back to the second stage to see an Australian Deathcore band from Brisbane, which was founded in 2010 
Aversions Crown. They weave the cool parts of Deathcore into an interestingly atmospheric form of melodic Death Metal which influenced by a lot of modern and classic death metal bands. Groovy with The atmospheric undertones with those soaring breakdowns and heavy modern sound which faster double bass drum mix with blast speed beats completely great mixed.
Next is Raven English heavy metal band associated with the new wave of British heavy metal movement. The band was formed in 1975 in Newcastle, England, by brothers John and Mark Gallagher, and Paul Bowden. The band’s highly energized live show and interaction between band members developed a unique image and style of play. with youthful energy and move which switching place between the guitar and bass player and it never stop, at the moment I was thinking where the 3 guys got suck of energy. 
Continue with Blues Pills at the main stage the Blues Pills. Honestly, I even don’t know this band just hear shortly I hear that they play kind like 60’s and 70’sclasic rock it was true what I was though before, great mixed with old and modern elements sound. they are a great musician whit full energy singer with barefoot all over the stage, their energy got the crowd dancing, moving, jump around seem all the audience are enjoyed the show.
We left their set a bit early and went to the second stage to catch the next band Bömbers Motörhead tribute band from Bergen, Norway. Featuring Abbath (ex-Immortal) on bass/vocals Tore Bratseth (ex-old Funeral) on guitar and Pez (Punishment Park) on drums. At the beginning, I did not realize that the vocal/bast player are Olve Eikemo as knowing the guitar player from Abbath was played the day before at the main stage. Their set was comprised mainly of the band’s greatest hits including “No Class”, “Iron Fist”, “Killed by Death” and “Ace of Spades”, as expected. It surprised me which makes a great job to capture Lemmy’s voice and his stage presence down to every minute detail. as well as the audience are enjoyed to hearing all hits of Motörhead.
Back to the main stage on the time at the main stage already crowded waiting for the headline for the fourth day of Metaldays. Opeth,
the Progressive Death Metal from Stockholm, Swedish were getting ready to perform. which opening song take from the latest album “Sorceress” followed by the classic “Ghost of Perdition”. the sound was great to come out in every each of instrument. but suddenly there was some technicians problem on the pedalboard of Mikael’s about 20 minutes the technicians try to fix the issue. Mikael assuring the audience that these things happen and that they’re working on a solution and Fredrik jamming on his guitar to keep the audience entertained. Finally. Mikael borrowed a spare board from Fredrik and the show was on again. i have been seen them many times in some another festival open air they always great in live performance.
Finally the last band at the second stage Sólstafir, Post-Metal/Rock from Icelandic. formed in 1995. The band’s name is the Icelandic word for crepuscular rays. I saw them for 2 years ago. Their unique blend of metal with beautiful melodies, psychedelic moments and a strong undercurrent of classic / hard rock comes as varied and at times appealingly bizarre as the landscapes of their native Iceland. these fellows delivered an incredible, emotional performance to a packed Boško Bursać Stage. The band’s hour-long set seemed to hit a chord with the audience, as the small stage sounded incredibly loud throughout the set. The atmosphere was highly positive, their signature depressive sound acting like a negative emotion filter. During their last song, Addi Tryggvason went down into the crowd, holding hands with the excited audience as he sung through “Goddess of the Ages” before bidding the crowd farewell
I was glad now is done time for us get relaxing after long day work. that was not easy to deal with a lot of bands which playing with a different stage like today we moved from the second stage into mainstage and new forces stage. but it was amazing show a lot of great bands today some we already knew and some are we just know was great experience today wait for the next day the last day of Metaldays.

Metaldays Friday 28.07.2017 Day-5
Just can't believe how quick the time is running and today is our last day in this beautiful place, Tolmmin. We had really great time and a lot of fun, meet new people, new band, party, hanging out at Soca river beach ground, even was at the first-day and the second day we had not nice weather.
Today our plan is going to exploring the festival area get some photos that we couldn't make before and then get some chillout at beach ground. About three hours already we were exploring the festival now to for us move to stage ground before the first band play at Boško Bursać Stage second stage.
Today begin with 
Martyr the opening band (Boško Bursać Stage) Symphonic Metal band from Spain. At the beginning, they are more into Death/Doom Metal.which female vocal. The band sound kind like a colossal mix of instruments with the orchestra complimenting the voices while haunting choirs are chanting unearthly melodies. with great composed quieter moments such as the acoustic which has strong traditional Folk leanings throughout and is faultless in its delivery. A great opening band very relaxes and great atmosphere.
Next, the Germany Blackened Death Metal/Grindcore/Crust band Implore. The band was founded in August 2013 which band members from Barcelona, Berlin, Linz and Milan great combination. Sound kind old school classic Death Metal which mixed some Grindcore, Crustcore and Black Metal very interesting and great sound.There were bands like Nasum, Trap Them, Converge, Origin and Napalm Death among as influences whit lyrics talking about such as religion, fascism, animal rights and human rights. is just too sad that they are playing early it was not crowded enough for such great band like them.
Still at the second stage (Boško Bursać ) the England Progressive metalcore Loathe. The band has been categorized as progressive metalcore, metalcore, death metal, nu metal, progressive metal, and experimental metal seem they are influenced by Slipknot, Deftones, Korn. Catchy riffs and groovy with a breakdown which delivered great sound it makes your head will move to follow the sound. was great performance even that was not my music I listening but they are great band thumbs up to a great job.
Time to move into the main stage (Lemmy Kilmister) to see the opening band for the last day at Metaldays 2017. A Thrash Metal band from Munich, Germany 
Mynded. Has been in the constant line-up since September 2012. Mynded The name actually means Mind Dead but they don't want to put a name band with 2 words. Simple and catchy tune comes out. good to make war up for the audience even there was not so crowd enough but slowly they come out to join with them at the main stage. Very tight performance.
Hell the legendary an English heavy metal band from Derbyshire. They were amongst the first bands to wear proto-corpse paint as part of their stage show. Although they were largely ignored by the media and record companies in the 1980s, their music became known through the underground tape trading phenomenon, and the band achieved a degree of cult status. In 2008 they reunited and were signed by Nuclear Blast. Their first full-length album, Human Remains, was released in May 2011. Their progressive musical style incorporates elements of thrash, power, symphonic, gothic, speed, doom and black metal, encompassing great variety. As the frontman "David Bower" said "We are Hell from England, formerly of Europe. This is what happens when you let stupid people vote” To the joy of many, Dave descended among the crowd to baptize the audience at the end of their set.
Before the next band is hit the main stage we go back into the second stage (Boško Bursać ) to join a party with a Gore Grind band from the Czech Republic 
Spasm which the lead singer wears a thong and a Borat one-piece bathing suit and with white cock mask, they are very unique which not guitar player I can say they are gigolo goregrind Drum 'n' Bass band with low tempos and chunky riff it solidly within slam territory with chromatic punctuated by a couple of prowling bass breaks It makes the sound heavy as hell and stupidly violent, delivery of big circle pit which forming a colorful, with full of Confetti fly in the air and massive soap bubbles and a freak.even I show them already view time but it always nice to see them live performance.
Next is a three-piece heavy metal band from Swedish Grand Magus at the main stage. While the Beggars are more in the traditional Deep Purple/Mountain camp of early rock/metal, Grand Magus originally opted for a bluesy, stoner-laced doom vibe, heavy on the early Black Sabbath riffing and tempos, As always the bands performance is spot on with their heavy sound always kept intact despite only being a three piece they built a solid relationship with the audience.
The German folk metal warriors Equilibrium seem ready to begin the show. they juggling the stage with replicas of trees and an imposing backdrop it matching of the atmosphere their music. Which tends to alternate between epic fills, double bass segments, and harsh blast beats the drum, harsh vocals with raspy black metal styled screams, groovy which very catchy riffs and melodious sound. it was truly creating epic atmosphere. they bring big crowd at the main stage on the time which continuously the crowd surfers during their performance.
Still at the main stage where the Swedish project band called Pain just finish check sound see they are ready to begin the show. The band is a project band mixes heavy metal with influence from electronic and techno music. as a beginning, it was just hobby project from the frontman Peter Tägtgren who is also the vocalist/guitarist of Hypocrisy. they are is currently on tour promoting their latest release “Coming Home”. The mood was perfect throughout the show. perfect and it was very tight performance. but unfortunately we cant stay until the end the show because we must move to the second stage wanted to catch up Sinister.
As we at second stage we just surprise it was crowded which colorful of the light and loud and heavy sound is come out from the stage it seems the show already started just lucky that we missed a couple of songs. The old school death metal from Netherlands Sinister, one of the bands we are waiting for. Sinister, in my opinion, one of the best was creating Death Metal tune back in the early/mid 90’s. they bring full of energy for the audience which keeps the circle pit are going on and the crowd surfers keep continuing during their performance. was great to see them live performance again, just forget when it was the last time I show them and also it would be great if they are playing at main.
At the main time, it was crowded at the main stage after few minutes soundcheck is done, finally the headline band Heaven shall burn were ready begin the show. The Melodic Death Metal band from Germany are delivering a strong show using fire show elements, with the heavy participation of the moshing fans who are busy participating in the big Circle Pits and the Wall of Death and crowd surfing did not stop for a second but for the pauses between the songs. very tight performance even we cant stay until the end of the show. Because it was overlapped with the last band at the second stage.
The headline band and the last band of the festival Death Angel an American thrash metal band from Daly City, California. one of the successful in Thrash Metal music genre every and have been in many concerts around the world. now they are here join with us on the last day of Metaldays 2017. Death Angel always a delivery big crowd and they gave an exceptional show it makes all of the audience goes crazy which circle pit getting big and bigger during the show and also crowed surfer. what for an amazing show which closed the festival with a violent.
What for the amazing time we had since the beginning of the festival until the end during 5 days we had a lot experience and excellent time meets new band that we never show before especially a new newcomer band, meet the peoples that we meet here every year and also meet new peoples. just can't imagine how fast the time is running.

Metaldaydays Tuesday 25.07.2017 Day-2
survival from the storm yesterday just lucky our tent still stand up, it was wet from the rain. just hope today will gonna be a nice weather that yesterday. even though the sun shows up in the morning but still don’t sure it will gonna be good weather. the weather is change so quickly. after cleaning up the tent and make dry some wet stuff we went to Tolmin Town get some breakfast before the to see the first band play at the second stage.
While waiting for the first band we just grab a coffee sitting in second stage ground. there all the stage crow seem busy prepare stuff for the band. view minute after that soundcheck are done it means the party of second days at Metalday ready to start with Melodic Death Metal band from Hannover Germany The Black Court. The Band was quite impressive which groovy riffs, double bass, and heavy sound were perfect mix together. great performance even at the beginning was not so much audience show up after view song is 
more and more audience show up.
Following by next band Transceatla the Progressive Rock & Metal. Transceatla from Romania with its comfortable progressive numbers provide a relaxed atmospheric mood, which many of variables sound. you can hear up and down there in the song the composition, which great mix between clean and harsh vocal very interested mixing which clearly Technical Death and Progressive Death.
Netherland band, For I’m King a Metal band, which headed by frontwomen. great musician which melodious heavy riffs and double bass. catchy, groovy and a lot of break down part. their mixture of modern elements and folk, sound more into Melodic Death Metal/Metalcore. great vocal technic and very aggressive and an outstanding live performance was great to see them all long the show.
Back to the Main stage (Lemmy Kilmister) stage to catch up the first band Dead End the Death Doom Metal from Netherlands, one of the old Death Metal band in Netherland which 2 demos released in 1990 and 1991 were at the beginning they more into Death Metal which switched into Doom Death. even they are an offering from a record label but some of them can’t make it because of study. great live performance
Back to the Second stage to join with of Speed Metal and Thrash Metal fans, it was a big crowd full of the audience wait for the show begin. Evil Invaders.After success full with touring around Europe they are here join us at the second stage of Metaldays. The band is quite known in the extreme metal scene. Which very energy live show, virtuosity style, and aggression. high screaming following excellent chugging riffs and breakneck drumming. Delivering a big circle pit during the show which always try to keep contact with the audience. was a great performance which great stage show.
The Austria Symphonic Metal band Visions of Atlantis headed by female fronted. Which influence of two a success Symphonic Metal bands Lacuna Coil and Nightwish. The music ranges from a fast paced melodic style of power metal slowed down to a more gothic inspired sound which melodic guitar lines twining alongside piano segments. great female and male vocal team combination. Was great performance even at that time only a few of audience, of course, it sadly for the band but they still keep and give the best show to the audience.
About 20 minutes break you make hearing the sound check for the next band at the main stage, at the same time seem looks like rain will be coming soon there a huge black cloud from behind the mountains come slowly to us. only a few minutes after, started a raining mixt wind the weather change very faster. usually, the next band will be hit the main stage is Krisiun but that not possible for them stated the show because of rain wind and thunder. about one hour after the Sanctuary, we just hear the 
sound from far it make not possible for to take the photos because of bad weather. we just thought Krisium are canceled. after we get some info that the band schedule is a change which Krisium will play for the last band at second stage replace a band is a chancel (Kadavar).
As the rain stop and the sky are a bit clear there at main stage five guys from Sweden Katatonia, ready to rock calling out the audience into the Lemmy Kilmister Stage. It was a few years ago since the last time I saw. But this day seems they quite meaningless for me. even they are quite sympathetic and also the announcements are kept friendly, the
re is something missing from them.
Back to the second stage which the Polish black metal band Mgla hit the stage. the audience were going crazy as the four guys saw up, which identical unique costumes with covering their head with black nylon. There is a contrast between absolute emptiness and catchy riffs where one wants to leave, which brings the music so clearly, which in turn makes the band so special in the scene. With their unique style, although their set was varied and great live performance.
Amon Amarth who don’t know this band one of the folk band is successful in their scene. The Swedes are starting their melodic death metal show with “The Pursuit of Vikings” whose powerful reef is actively sung by the audience. Trading their old, raw melodic death metal sound for a stripped down, slightly more aggressive traditional heavy metal sound imbued with growling vocals. very tight sound and catchy guitar riffs and double-bass drum and groovy there more Death metal element in every each track from them. Great the full of Viking’s decoration on the stage Their drum set was sitting upon an imposing Viking helmet surrounded by the platform look really amazing. they are really perfect in every detail which impressive fireworks and pyrotechnics. Meanwhile, they’re down the stage the audience is going crazy bring most of the fans floats towards the stage continually till the end the show. It’s fun to watch them live performance and a great performance.
Time for the trio guys from Brazil the Brutal Death Metal band from Brazil. hit the second stage for the last band. At the beginning, they were a four-piece for a very short period of time before deciding that they worked better as a three-piece after Mauricio Nogueira left. formed in 1990, by three brothers. I have been seeing them live show a several time. Krisiun ensures by his brutal death so characteristic, blending blast beats bursts that can be assimilated to submachine guns coming from the favelas and riffs. However, the majority of the audience appreciate this little interlude and welcomes with joy the recall, consisting of a cover of Motörhead (‘Ace of Spades’) bring the audience join singing together was amazing and blast to see them this evening here at the second day of Metaldays 2017.

After long way which through two countries Austria and Italy with rain Storms and warm that is the symbol of the epic journey bring as to the beautiful country of Slovenia. when we arrive in Tolmin town it was great to see full of Metal fans walking, shopping around Tolmin town. after we did finish building our camping tent we went to river beach joined with our friends, enjoyed our time relaxing and before we starting work on the next day of Metaldays.
This year has a bit change and also some new as last year of Metalday. the new is, there is the third stage the New Force stage for a new band for the first time at Metalday. 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.

Was full of people at the moment are doing some sport and yoga or relax sitting on the beach ground watching the beautiful few of Soca river. about 2 hours we were hanging out at Beach ground we move to press tent.
Second stage (Boško Bursać Stage) time to catch the Doom Metal band from Italy Grime. The slow and heavy groove is filthy and vicious, guitar riffs are sharp and covered with rust, drums and bass hit with the unstoppable power of a mud avalanche which old-school dirty sound and very heavy sound. The trio guys from Italy bring great packet for the opening band it makes crowded enough for the first band.
Next still at second stage (Boško Bursać Stage) SRD the Black Metal from Muska Sobat, Ljubljana, Slovenia hit the stage. It was surprising which great show, mostly the Black Metal band are the same Guitar sound but this one is different they had own sound. The band is mixed between Black and Rock & Roll ( Black & Rol). Great to warm up the audience bring to the next level.
Shotdown the Speed /Heavy Metal band from Slovenia. I’m not really into speed or heavy metal band but another side most of Speed/ heavy metal band are great musician especially the Guitar player which unbelieve fable faster solo and very aggressive. Anyway always great to know some new band all over around the world. great performance and tight sound.
Move to Mainstage ( Lammy Kilmister Stage). to catch the opening band on third days of Metaldays. Slovenia Progressive Death Metal Djent Morywa means noise. which modern sound which combines different subgenres of extreme metal with a lot of low-tuned grooves and meaty riffage.was interesting never hear them before. was great live performance even at the time was lest the audience was annoyed to see them.
After view minutes break time for Norwegian heavy metal band Triosphere. Which frontwomen and bass player”Ida Haukland” she was founded Triosphere and the guitarist “Marius Silver Bergesen” in 2014. Both of them who most composer the song which heavy metal sound mixed with progressive elements it can be said progressive heavy metal. They experiment with mixing elements in the genre; melodic, energetic, aggressive and technical. with full of the energy of live performance.
Finally, the Time to get a party with grindcore band from the Czech Republic Gutalax.where they also played last year at second stage which bing most of the audience at the second stage. now at mainstage (Lammy Kilmister stage). Where on that time more and more audience entering the mainstage ground most of them wearing is color full and funny costume. even they are not starting yet but there already crowded which a lot of toilet paper flying around. after view pink toilet paper flying from the main stage, the party is started. following big circle pit and crowd surfing all of the audience is going crazy anything flew in the air. like toilet paper, toilet brushes, dildos and ball. This band has become quite the rage in the goregrind circles. Additionally mixing brutal death metal a la slam parts in the goregrind template to make it boisterous and animated like giant bouncing boobs the music that’s simple, catchy and chunky. good for party music. one our was quick what of a massive show was enjoyed to see them all along the show.
Time for the Norway Black metal the legendary Immortal frontman, Abbath known as a founding member of the black metal band Immortal who was the lead vocalist, bassist, guitarist, keyboardist, drummer, and lyricist. Considered by many a kind of “joking” of Black Metal. That’s why he makes funny faces during performances whit face painting, demonic poses. The most of the black metal band acting are serious but he is a difference which always makes a funny face. in the middle of the show, he went down run up into the cliff just give hi5 and he was run down the hill and fall down, indeed he got up and came back among the victorious fans, and back to the stage to continue the show. I can’t stop laughing when I show that happen anyway was awesome show was entertaining not only me seems most all of the audience was enjoyed the show.
Before the next band comes up time to get some food and grab some more Beer and back to the main stage after view minutes soundcheck the Death Metal band from Swedia Bloodbath ready to lacerate in the early evening at mainstage of Metaldays. they are quality death metal in its old fashion combined with a new sound, this collective composed of members of Opeth, Katatonia and Witchery once included the likes of Dan Swanö and Mikael Akerfeldtgreeted. greeted the crowd with an arsenal of crushing riffs, tight rhythm and thundering vocals. I had seen two of their members, Jonas Renkse and Anders Nyström, was perform with Katationia yesterday. It was quite amusing seeing them in this band. His growling voice was on point, strong and energetic, and his witty remarks in between the songs lit up the crowd. Seems like the band has finally found a perfect fit. This evening they are playing very tight and full energy and powers and great show that I show them from last time in some another Festival Open Air.
The legendary German heavy metal Grave Digger. I’m not really into a Heavy Metal lover, but I like them because they are full of energy and very active on the stage always keep a contact with the audience. They gave their fans an energetic and professional show, ending with their two battle horses: Rebellion and Heavy Metal Breakdown involving the public at all times. Was crowded and great show was nice to see them.
Back to mainstage (Lammy Kilmister Stage) to catch the Headline on the third day of Metaldays. Legendary German Metal Queen Doro knew as “Doro Pesch”. She has been the 34-years-long career in Heavy Metal music and has been in many concerts all over around the world. Very energetic and very active on the stage and always keep contact with the audience. I don’t know so much about there but it was great to see the live performance and it was an absolutely relaxed atmosphere.
Back to the second stage which the last band gonna play, the Norwegian alternative, black metal, and jazz, Shining. I even don’t know this band before but it was interesting and surprise which many kinds of music element mixed 
together heavy riffs and blast beat drumming with saxophone and clean singing. Founded in 1999 as an acoustic jazz quartet in Oslo. Over time, the band’s style changed to a more experimental and extreme direction, influenced by Metal, Progressive Rock, and Classical music from the 19th and 20th centuries. Their music really got the crowd moving, jumping, moshing and dancing.
What for an amazing day today which a lot of great bands I have been seeing all long day also was perfect whether you make not be complaining about that. there are 2 more days to go. Before going to sleep we went to the beach party to get some relax sitting on beach river while hearing some music. here are never top the party whatever in which time you came here there’s always crowded.
