What an absolute honor to be a part of this! Thank you so much for having us!

[Holkre]

Die Drohnenshow war atemberaubend, spart euch das Feuerwerk wir brauchen mehr Drohnen, danke dafür!

[captaincap]

The Band playing is called Cypecore. Melodic Death metal from Germany 🤘

[Sats_are_smart]

Die Show war so gut. Vielen Dank an die Veranstalter, dieses Jahr war noch besser als die Jahre davor. Ich freue mich schon auf 2025 ❤.

To see Hanabie as one of those 34 Bands, is amazing.
These Girls made phenomenal appearance during the last two or three years.
Something that started as some suggestions for that band in the reaction community, ended up in Wacken.

They are so smart for selling next year's tickets only hours after the festival is over. This way many people are still hyped from this year's festival and they get 80.000x333€=26.640.000€ in advance to invest into next year. Masterfully done!

Cypecore Songs played from the Mainstage in Wacken! Congrats! Amazing Band! Totally Underrated! <3

[TheDinoMonstrosity]

Saw this live and had absolutely no idea there was a band playing live or any of the wasteland warriors there 😂 fantastic show though!

[andros]

We were jumping for joy when Gojira came up on screen. Also we're excited to find out if Papa Roach will just play "Last Resort" 10 times in a row next year 🤔

[milinko]

Machine Head und Dimmu Borgir natürlich sehr BIG! :)

[Guitarjosii]

It was absolutely epic. Thank you so much. Will be back in 2025!

[phoneboxchicken]

Good idea to announce the next line up early, at the event. People are already there probably having a good time and will look forward to next year. You buy tickets for Glastonbury not having any idea who's playing. It could be Lizzo doing armpit farts to 60s novelty songs for all you know

Those drones were great too.

[ScottSix]

Great show! So happy to see Cypecore as a part of it - you guys deserve the main stage!

[StefanHannberg]

Wirklich sehr schön gemacht mit den Dronen👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘

[euledj]

Die Drohnenshow wäre doch viel cooler, wenn man einfach nur das Licht der Drohnen wirken lassen würde. Verstehe nicht, warum man den Blick auf die Drohnen durch solch eine massive Lightshow verdeckt.

[frankvandorp]

Thanks for the video, I couldn't see this live because Primordial was playing.

[wellthatsjustpeachy]

Was just there and that light show was kick ass!!! Behemoth put it down heavy af and amon amarth followed with cradle of filth hell yea!! See yall next year my tickets are already in my metaltix!!

[Dragondarkness]

Papa roach NOW THATS INTERESTING. I havent seen them in a couple of years its definitely been a while. Hopefully they play in the states again soon.

[theoutsider]

Cypecore, for me the best band in the whole world ! 🧡 Goosebumps go hard with this one ! 🥹

[woge]

I'm waiting to see the metal battle on WET and HEADBANGER Stage, best gigs there, full of emotions...
