"It is an honor to return to the METAL CAMP open air. This time
BELPHEGOR are scheduled at a perfect playing time, and we can bring
the demons total Krieg. A lot of interesting bands performing in
the middle of the great landscape of Tolmin, surrounded by
ensorcelled woods. It is the perfect atmosphere for Death/ Black
Metal. Goddman, the whole toxic troup is so looking foward to shred
this convent... expect blasting hellfire!!!."
Helmuth, BELPHEGOR
"We are stoked to be playing Metal Camp, a whole week long
festival of metal has got to be the best week of the year. Other
bands have told us how great the crowd is so we cannot wait to
bring Nola to Slovenia."
Phil Anselmo, DOWN
"Metalcamp is one of the best festivals in europe. I´ve been
there since the beginning and I cannot wait to be there again.
Great area, great people and the atmosphere is fantastic.... this
is like paradise"
Stefano Fiori, Graveworm
"This will be our first time at the Metal Camp Festival, but we
have seen pictures and our friends told us all about it, so we are
definitely looking forward to play there and party on the beach,
afterwards!"
Martin Schirenc, Hollenthon
"MetalCamp is trully a hell of an experience both for the bands
that participate and the metal fans as well that will attend. The
relaxed atmosphere,the beautiful slovenian countryside and the
excellent organization of the festival all together consist one of
the best metal festivals in the world! Last year with Mystic
Prophecy we gave a hell of a show, but this year we will take no
prisoners. Stay tuned for the Mystic Prophecy appearance on
MetalCamp 2009 performing our brand new album 'FIREANGEL'!
"
Roberto Dimitri Liapakis, Mystic
Prophecy
"Metal Camp was a pleasant surprise the last time we played
there, with it's Forrest atmospheric surroundings and a darker
vibed crowd, Testament and I are looking forward to stiiring up the
the crowd there again and sending them into a frenzy with a special
set for this dark crowd! Hails to Metal Camp and see you into the
pit!"
Eric Peterson, Testament
"Metal Camp has got to be the coolest thing for metal fans to
come and camp out in one of the coolest settings in the world for a
festival. You are playing in the middle of the forest next to a
running river. It is incredible."
Chuck Billy, Testament
This will be the second time for us to play this great
festival,the first time we've been there was 2007 and we headline
the second stage, this time finally we'll play the main stage and
we are looking forward to be there, the people it's really wild and
cool and the people who organize everything are really professional
and focused on this thing.
Tommy Massara, Extrema
"Metalcamp is held in amazingly nice area beneath the mountains
and I'm really looking forward to come there earlier this year so
we can have a look around. Last time it became a bit to stressful
for that, but I like the chaos after the gig when the mafia dudes
came and kicked one guy out from the third floor of that weird
hotel, opposite to my room (I got him to destroy a door) so he
landed on his neck on an air-conditioner, but he survived pretty
good. Crazy place with a lot of cool bands, I am sure that also
this year will be a circus."
Whiplasher, Deathstars
"One the greatest festivals in Europe where paradise meets
Metal, everybody should be obligated to experience this bootcamp at
least once!"
Maurice, Legion of the damned
"Metalcamp 2008 was Attica Rage's first European festival and I
think I can safely say that we have been spoiled for other
festivals in the future....it's hard to imagine any other event
living up to the unique Metalcamp experience. It's not just about
the select quality of the line-up, the beautiful location and
scenery or the laid-back but professional organisation....but
Metalcamp truly creates a strong community amongst everyone who
attends - metal fans from all over the world descending on Tolmin
for those special 7 days. It is completely unique and if ever there
was a reason to visit Slovenia and try a new festival experience,
this is it. For Attica Rage to be returning in 2009 to open the
main stage is an honour - we'll be kick-starting the Saturday with
an almighty bang....we'll see ya down the front!"
Jay - Attica Rage
"Our last Metal Camp gig was great, cause of the professional
organisation, very good equipment, wonderful place. Last but not
least the crowd was amazing. Hey fans, we thank you for your loyal
support all over the years. We are really looking forward the see
you all soon."
Metallic greetings fron Tom Angelripper and
Sodom
"We are really looking forward to finally step on Metalcamp
stage. I hear nothing but compliments about this festival so we are
very excited to be part of it this year."
Tuomas, Nightwish
"It’s great to know we are coming back to Metalcamp this year.
Last time we arrived really late and didn’t have any time to check
the surroundings. I hear the beach bar is something we should
check, too."
Silenoz, Dimmu Borgir
"I remember the Metalcamp show it was really cool to perform
between the mountains! The crowd and the atmosphere was really
relaxed. I also remember the hotel we stayed in had a funny
smell."
Anders, In Flames
"Metalcamp for us was great. I remember the crowd was great and
the atmosphere was fantastic, and the river there is beautiful but
really cold."
Mikael, Opeth
"I love the festival area, its beautiful! I was there twice
already with Soilwork and we always had a great time."
Speed, Soilwork
"Metalcamp offers the perfect black metal atmosphere- mountains,
forests surrounding the main stage- its ideal place for a metal
festival. I think this festival has great future."
Satyr, Satyricon
"I was really looking forward to finally perform at MC last
year. Unfortunately we had some trouble with pouring rain during
our gig and had to stop after 5 songs or so. But we will be back
for sure!"
Nergal, Behemoth
"Hypocrisy: I really like Metalcamp. I ve been there almost
every year, twice with Hypocrisy and once with Pain. It great to
meet friends and the crowd is great. I love the fact the hotel is
so close to main stage and the beach bar is just killer."
Peter, Pain
"I really like this freaky hotel and we have great time here. I
like the organization and that everything runs smoothly. Our
performance was cool and the crowd was awesome!"
Kerry King, Slayer
"When we played Metalcamp, we spent almost a whole week at the
festival and we had great time! Our show was really intense and we
will never forget it. I also like the crazy looking hotel and the
atmosphere and people are really friendly there."
Abbath, Immortal
"I always enjoy coming back to Slovenia, I met some really great
people there. Metalcamp festival is great, it certainly lived up to
all our expectations and we had great time there. The atmosphere is
fantastic too."
