MOONSPELL
MOONSPELL are part of the team since 1989 and still publish new material constantly. 2012 the twinpack “Alpha Noir” and “Omega White” came up. After those two stunners, we had nothing to think about anymore. We got them: MOONSPELL on ROCKHARZ 2013!
AUDREY HORNE
All those who connect Norway with viking and black metal are not that right: AUDREY HORNEs member got their roots in those genres but with their current band, they provide for the way of venerable classic or hard rock. That pretty interesting mixture can be experienced in summer 2013 on our festival.
DRAGONFORCE
It’s a premiere: the band, where one hour ends after 40 minutes. The band, whose guitarist finishes his part ten minutes earlier. The band, that set new standards concerning Guitar Hero. Experience the fastest confirmation of ROCKHARZ-history: DRAGONFORCE.
AKREA
Todays confirmation is based on german lyrics, but packed in a new robe: melodic death is what AKREA does. The members of the band around Fabian and Sebastian did not change, but grew with a second guitarist. Which is another quality criterion next to the two publihed albums. Welcome to ROCKHARZ 2013, AKREA.
OHRENFEINDT
Hard rock from Hamburg: OHRENFEINDT are well known for 20 years with rocking melodies and their honest lyrics. With the mouth harp, OHRENFEINDT got an instrument that cant be seen very often on the ROCKHARZ stages. Chris Lauts raspy voice tells of everydays storys. We are happy to announce OHRENFEINDT from St. Pauli.
DELAIN

In times, where female fronted bands are a “must-have” in every genre, Charlotte Wessels […]

PSYCHOPUNCH
Why is it, that the perfect symbiosis of german rock and english lyrics, comes from… Sweden? PSYCHOPUNCH are on stage since 1999, making their fingers bleed for their fans, and singer and guitarist JM still keeps shouting those typical rock-themes. But: he excels others from his guild. A heavy welcome to PSYCHOPUNCH.
MUSTASCH
7 albums, on tour with MOTÖRHEAD, VOLBEAT and ROSE TATTOO, Grammy-nominations, … This is a pretty impressing stat the swedish members of MUSTASCH can look back to. “Sounds like hell, looks like heaven” is what their new album, released on 10-26-2012, is called. Welcome To ROCKHARZ, MUSTASCH!
ODEN OGAN
There was not a dry BLIND GUARDIAN fan’s eye left after the Westphalians last album “Easton Hope”. Then, they even forked out with “To The End”. Second time on ROCKHARZ: ODEN OGAN.
