didn't Mayhem just cancel their South America tour due to the pig flu? think I heard something like that. So maybe they're free for Wacken.
haha... knowing Maniac's strange habits with pig heads, that'd be funny.
I know dude, this is indeed what makes me sick ... cause I have planed my holidays for Wacken cause I expected Wacken to be the best festival this year, at least they ought to be ...
I could have written every single word of this...
are you kidding ?Obituary - not bm/dm

Where do you see 5 metalcore bands? I see only 3: BFMV, BMTH and Calejjon (or whatever the name is).And its "just" 5 metalcore bands this year. I mean - 6 too much, but it shows the emphases: Its quite the same, noticing that we have to face another 3 or 4.
Man, this year nothing can compare with such huge band as Carcass. Also there is no old school death metal as at 08' - Obituary and Grave. Also you forgot Job For a Cowbay which gave facesmashing performance of brutality.

You both forgot MASSACRE from last year which is both death metal and old school! There you go....also they were one of the best bands of 2008 IMO!

At the Gates - not bm/dm
Ehm....does you drunk to much mate?!?!?
At the Gates should NOT BE DEATH METAL?!??! what the fuck?!?!
At the Gates are one of the BEST death Metal bands out there (ok not more...cause last show last year *cry*)
At the Gates are the precursors of Melodic Death metal! And they are 100% Death Metal!
And to the Comparison of the Death/Black Bands from 2008 to 2009 - sick?!?
The Bands in 2008 were real great! Many great acts of Death and Black Metal!
Obituary , At the Gates , Carcass and Gorgoroth - These 4 Bands on his own are real oldschool Acts!
And this Year? Jeah we have Amon Amarth....first to say is that they play EVERYWHERE!!!
And they are Death Metal? lol! Okay..they play death metal...but for kids!
The riffs are softer than parts of Power Metal Bands , and this shall be Death?!? hahaha compare this to Obituary , Cannibal Corpse or something other...you will see - its Death Metal for the Viking/Pagan Kids , cause of the Lyrics and the softer (but for them harder) riffing.
2009 are not ONE real big Death/Black Metal Band confirmed.
Napalm Death....In their Oldschool times they was real good Grindcore! Without discussion! But...what do they produce today? It have nothing to do with Grindcore!
Then Kampfar...hahaha another Band for the Pagan/Viking Kids.
Endstille...jeah our music is such annoying that we have to slaughter pigs on our concerts - we are the most blasphemic and frostbitten Band ever!!!
Sarke....a sideproject of Darkthrone...nice....its the 20th Wacken Open Air , and the only thing we need to confirm is a SIDE project?!? I laughed!
The only Band from the Death/Black fraction wich is worth to say its good , is Einherjer. Ok they are Viking Metal too , but i´ve neverd heard of a Pagan/Viking-Kid who listened to them...they are to rought for them.
So now we can compare this in a short way.
2008 --->>> Obituary , At the Gates , Carcass , Gorgoroth , Massacre and Grave as great Acts
2000 --->>> Einherjer (not real Death/Black metal)
and sorry for my bad english -.- i´ve always hated the grammatic =D

And if you don't like Endstille you should rather not complain - they are the most extreme act on the Billing. And if you're crying for harder stuff you should NEVER complain about them. I'd even guess you don't understand this kind of music...
Ok it have much to do with your personal view of this Music - But...please set Endstille in a comparison against e.g. Marduk or 1349.....but ok its a thing of personal viewing.
And to the part that i dont like AmonAmArsch....i´ve saw them live and they were very disapointing (at the Full of Hate in Cologne). In my opinion AA are NOT death Metal , they are viking metal ok - but this ends in a senseless discussion of Genres - Stop here!
In fact of the LineUp and the failed communication , wacken has died for me - Many will like it now , but not me. Hope to see you at better festivals!
I was not trying to compare them to any other stuff - they are just an extreme act. And this is what should not be in a fucking minority on Wacken. It's your part if you like them or not - but at least adding some extreme bands would be the right choice.
I've never seen Amon Amarth really live myself, but I'm looking very forward to it. They don't play Death Metal, that's clearly right, it is in fact Viking Metal - maybe with some other elements. But what you admit is that they have a huge fanbase - also in real metal-community!
I hope there will still be some good stuff for you be added!
