Fri 22 Jun – Graspop Metal Meeting
The weather was fucking terrible, but I didn't let it ruin the mood and I head banged non-stop for 3 days!
Here's a little review of the bands I saw.
Friday
——
I missed some bands because of my fucking university that put an exam the very last day.
Static-X 16.40/17.20
Great nu-metal band!
4/5
Vader 17.20/18.00
This was one of the best performances in my opinion, fucking hard and brutal - the way it should be!
5/5
Papa Roach 18.00/18.50
I missed the first few songs because I was at the camping getting my raincoat.
But they part I did saw was great! Coby Shaddix sympathized with us by running on the catwalk in the poring rain.
Great show! 4/5
Grave Digger 18.55/19.40
Does not need a review.
5/5
Within Temptation 19.45/20.45
It was the first time I saw them play live, can't say I enjoyed it much, I don't know any material of them
3/5
Celtic Frost 20.50/21.40
I went to see this show thinking they were viking/battle metal, but I was wrong - it was doom and if there is anything I don't like, then it's doom metal!
If the drums were any slower - I think I'd fell asleep.
2/5
Chris Cornell 21.45/22.45
Food time! But from what I've heard on the background, it was pretty similar to his old band Audioslave
3/5
Joe Satriani 22.50/23.45
Fucking awesome guitarists! Easily in my top 5 best shows!
5/5
Aerosmith 23.50/01.20
The first 30 minutes were fucking awesome, but after that they started to play some new songs and they pretty much sucked.
3/5
I had to skip Blind Guardian because I was to fucking tired and just like Satyricon last year, I regret that I skipped them.
Saturday

Brutal Truth 12.45/13.25
True NY grindcore!
4/5
Lamb Of God 13.30/14.15
Don't need a review
4/5
Sirenia 14.20/15.00
Didn't know they were gothic metal, so I was kinda bored during the show.
2/5
Stone Sour 15.05/15.50
Fucking awesome, but I'm very biased here.
5/5
Atheist 15.55/16.40
Fucking heavy
4/5
Life of Agony 16.45/17.30
Never heard of them before, but still good.
3/5
Cannibal Corpse 17.35/18.20
These guys don't need an introduction, fucking brutal!
4/5
Drowning Pool 19.35/20.35
Great nu-metal
4/5
Korn 20.40/21.55
In my opinion, they were better the last time I've seen them, but nonetheless, still fucking hard!
3/5
Me First & The Gimme Gimmies 22.00/23.00
Our next song is a cover!
3/5
Iron Maiden 23.00/01.00
Fucking awesome show, not only the music was great, but the various Eddy stuff on stage made the show even better!
5/5
