Summer breeze song meaning8/24/2023 ![]() Besides his excellent singing, Basti was also in charge of whipping up the audience and doing his funny stage raps (“The next song is about small lusty dwarves who live under the earth!” – the song in question was “Zombiefied”). Obviously people were again seen happily dancing in circles and building walls of death. The young audience got behind the band as one from the very start and celebrated their heroes – even chanting the song announcements – providing for extra motivation in the band and loads of action in the pit. After the drummer had allegedly broken his wrist at With Full Force he must have made a miraculous recovery, because he played as if nothing had ever happened. ![]() But whatever, at the end of the day it was the music that mattered. Surprisingly, no backdrop had been put up, a pity considering the singer is also a talented visual artist. SetlistĪfter an intro the band, and, shortly after, their singer Basti, stormed the stage in a highly motivated manner. In any case, THE CUMSHOTS earned their candidacy for having the biggest balls of the whole festival, and not only because singer Max Cargo waved his in front of the photographers’ lenses before carrying on singing while walking through the crowd, visibly enjoying the close contact to the audience. Particularly the genuine performance with regards to visuals, attitude and music combined with the killer grooves caused immediate movement in the front rows. What about the music? A grandiose, dirty and brutal mix of MOTÖRHEAD, THE HELLACOPTERS, SLAYER, AC/DC, ENTOMBED and ELVIS. Visually the Norwegians were a real eye-opener, looking more like an authentic American rock band, and the attitude didn’t end there, judging by the frequent use of ther F-word. THE CUMSHOTS play an extremely cool and straightforward mix of rock with a big chunk of metal, the perfect soundtrack to a party with lots of beer, whiskey, cigarettes and lightly-clothed young women, even though the latter were nowhere to be seen. SetlistĪfter THE NEW BLACK it was time for some heavier stuff, although one couldn’t have known by the Elvis Presley intro. UNSUN may be good for a musical morning pint, but they’re still missing a bit of nutritional value to qualify for a main meal. At least guitarist Mauser used to be a lot more agile back in his VADER days, but then again the material on offer isn’t really too complex. The band obviously didn’t want to overtax the audience at such an early hour, looking quite contained in terms of stage acting and communication. At least judging by frontwoman Aya, who can easily rival someone like Sharon den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION) in the vocal department despite still wearing children-size clothes. No worries, the music on offer is easily digestible and surely won’t make you gain weight. Meanwhile, Poland’s UNSUN enter the stage to sweeten the attendees’ “hair of the dog” beer with some gothic pop. The sun fights its way through the clouds, warming the backs of the fans waiting at the Main Stage. Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day in Dinkelsbühl.
