Into the Grave 2014
Just two weeks after the heavy Stonehenge Festival, I was sent out to Leeuwarden, all the way in the north of The Netherlands, to check out Into the Grave. Into the Grave lends its name because of the place where it’s held. In the middle of Leeuwarden, there used to be a cemetary, named the […]

Report: Dong Open Air 2014
Who remembers Dong 2012? It was the muddiest year the festival has ever known. The rain poured almost non stop and our beloved Dong Mountain turned into one big swamp. This year was quite the opposite and it seemed more alike the very first DOA that Metal-Exposure attented, because it was HOT, very hot! When […]

Rock Hard Festival 2014

Fortarock – The Festival 2014
After Fortarock’s XL edition last year, many metal fans were anxious to see how this year’s edition of the festival would turn out.

The people with a yearning for straightforward rock could also enjoy Vandenberg’s Moonkings, Alter […]
Ragnarök 2014
It’s been three years since Metal-Exposure last visited the Ragnarök Festival in Lichtenfels, so it was about time that we were coming back. Arriving at the Stadthalle in Lichtenfels, things looked exactly the same as three years ago and it felt like we never skipped an edition. However, the festival has grown a little since, […]
