Full Metal Cruise IV: Here are the first bands!
The time has come; the first bands for the Full Metal Cruise IV can be announced!
Metalheads, who joined the Cruise III, already may have heard some names, but all others should read carefully now!
Saxon
With Saxon one of Europe´s greatest, oldest and most influential Metal bands go on the journey with us! The British band will celebrate their 40th anniversary in 2016 with us. Also the 20th Saxon album will be released this year! So you can expect a loud party on boar of the Mein Schiff 1 with immortal hits like Crusader or Wheels of Steel!
Leaves´ Eyes
The cabin-surveys on the Full Metal Cruise II and III make it clear: Symphonic Metal is a must-have for the fourth Cruise. And because of that we present you Leaves´ Eyes today! The German-Norwegian band is known for their sophisticated live-shows and their interplay of clear and guttural vocals with both, a male and a female singer. Apropos: The new album King of Kings will hit the stores overmorrow (11th September)!
Callejon
The probably most important spearhead of German-speaking Metalcore will not only perform at W:O:A 2016 but also play on the Full Metal Cruise! Be prepared for an extraordinaire demolition, because Callejon have own songs as well as cover-songs like “Schrei nach Liebe”, “Hier kommt Alex” or “Major Tom” in their program.
Eskimo Callboy
In the forefront of the first Cruise the wariness has been enormous – do they really fit to that? This modern and hyphy stuff? And how! The six boys from Castrop-Rauxel conquered the ship in no time at all and they will let it bang again on board of the fourth Cruise.
C.O.P. UK
The young British band C.O.P. UK plays somewhere between Heavy Metal, Hard and Stadium rock and thus was able to attract attention from great bands like Saxon or W.A.S.P.
Caliban
With every album Caliban get bigger and there is no end in sight! As you know the bands counts to the first wave of German Metalcore bands and brings along all important ingredients for a great demolition-party on board.
Der Weg Einer Freiheit
Extreme Metal fans pay attention! With Der Weg Einer Freiheit we take one of the most promising young Black Metal bands on the Cruise. This year with Stellar their third album has been released – and because of that the band has enough songs for two shows on board.
Also brute Comedian Bembers is again with us, who has performed last on the second Cruise. And with his lections on board we break new ground: Martin Semmelrogge is well-known for his German-speaking version of the Lemmy biography “White Line Fever” and will read some highlights of this on board.
