CD review V.A. ‘Live At Wacken 2018: 29 Years Louder Than Hell’

(*/10) The Wacken festival has a long tradition and it seem to become a tradition that a release with Wacken recordings creates some extra appetite right upfront the festival.

This year it’s ‘Live At Wacken 2018: 29 Years Louder Than Hell’ that looks back on the last years edition of the iconic Metal feast. Two DVD’s or two CD’s, these are the options, carriers of 30+ songs, recorded at Wacken 2018. As the festival itself also this release features an illustrious mix of all kinds of bands, reflecting many genres and subgenres of Heavy Metal.

It goes without saying that the sound quality doesn’t give any reason for complaints. This release provides you with a good time while riding (or being stuck in traffic) on your way to Wacken 2019.
