The Metal Fest 2013


The last weekend, Chile has the honor to be the home of one of the most importants music festivals in America, The Metal Fest. The event starts like three p.m. on Movistar Arena and brings sixteen national bands on a outside satge and fourteen international bands on the main stage inside the building. There was a large line to the entrance and a lot of stores with shirts, accessories, food and cero alcohol beer (no one seems to like this jajaja), but all this things was very expensive, so I don´t buy anithing until I was very hungry, like eigth-nine p.m.

I was so excited when I take the tickets to the concert for first time (court obviously), beacuse I finally will hear Sodom live. They are one of my Death-Thrash Metal favorite band, I was in the moshpit during each of their songs and enjoyed it so much. Also, there was Arcturus, Twisted Sister and Morbid Angel, each one with their own style.

Arcturus plays Symphonic Black Metal, its vocalist ICS Vortex can sing Gregorian Chant and swicth quickly to Gutural, I don´t know how he can do this, its very difficult.

Morbid Angel is one of the pilars of the old Death Metal, they plays strong and the audience was totally crazy, jumping, running and striking everyone on their path jajajaja. Sadly, I wasn´t there, because my boots was ripped out on the moshpit of Sodom.

Finally Twisted Sister goes out, they are a Glam Metal band, like Guns & Roses, but for my preferences they are better. They plays many of their old hits, including I Wanna Rock, The Fire Still Burns and We´re Not Gonna Take It. In the last one, they make a joke to us, they know that we sing "huevos con aceite" on the chorus, and tell us "we gonna sing huevos con aceite too, because we are so fucking crazy as you" jajajaja.

There was others bands, but I don´t care about them, I just go to hear these ones, but my friend Alvaro wanted to hear all of them, so I have no choise and I had to stay there, stand, untill one a.m.

That was a very good show, I hope to see some one like this again.
