OSTRAVA V PLAMENECH 2024
UDO DIRKSCHNEIDER is the headliner of OSTRAVA V PLAMENECH 2024 - celebrating 10 years of metal ride!
The steel and cultural heart of the Czech Republic - OSTRAVA will experience the metal event of the year. The legend of world metal - Udo Dirkschneider with his band U.D.O.
Udo Dirkschneider is considered one of the most famous artists in the field of metal. His voice and charisma elevated him to a pedestal in music history. Udo is intrinsically associated with the group Accept, where he worked as a frontman and singer. One of the members of his current band is bassist Peter Baltes, who was also a member of the legendary Accept.
He will bring a cross-section of his greatest hits to Ostrava, of which there are countless. Fans can look forward to hits like "Animal House", "Metal Heart", "They Want War" and many others that have become anthems for generations. This performance will thus become an exceptional moment for the festival, which will connect the past and the present of metal.
Udo is very happy to return to Ostrava and is always hopelessly sold out long in advance. His concert this year was sold out almost half a year in advance.
In addition to this legend of world metal, fans will enjoy the performance of eight other bands from around the world. For example from Iceland, Italy or Australia.
We will see the international formation BEAST IN BLACK based in Finland. It was formed in 2015 and brings a unique combination of heavy metal elements with modern influences and a sound reminiscent of the 80s. The band gained popularity mainly due to the charismatic vocals of frontman Yannis Papadopoulos, who can sing incredibly high. Their recent world tour was practically sold out.
Another famous name is PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS. As the name suggests, this band from England is led by ex-Motörhead guitarist Phil Campbell. His work is still a driving force in rock music even after Motörhead broke up after Lemmy left this world. There aren't too many people walking around the world anymore who can without a doubt be called a rock star. Phil Campbell definitely belongs to this exclusive party.
An equally exciting element of the line-up "is the Irish-French band MOLYBARON, which is slowly but surely heading towards metal peaks. With its music, it brings not only fresh energy, but also an innovative approach to metal music, which promises extraordinary experiences. With its original sound and strong musical performance, Molybaron quickly gained worldwide attention for their skillful combination of elements from various metal subgenres, from thrash metal to melodic death metal, creating a unique and engaging sound.The sticker on the cover of their last year's album 'Something omnious' reads "for the fans Alter Bridge, Gojira and Muse", which quite accurately describes their work, which contains everything but boredom.
We will also see: BLAX (Italy), Czech FORREST JUMP, ADAMS PARADE (Australia), AMALGAMA (Czech Republic/Netherlands/Ukraine), MERKÚR (Iceland)
