With the wonderful institution that is the Wacken Festival happening every August, there is always time for rock and metalheads worldwide to get into full training for that glorious week…and what better way than by engaging with, and imbibing to, the spectacular highlights of 2017’s festival as heard on LIVE AT WACKEN 2017 - 28 YEARS LOUDER THAN HELL. With Motörhead/Megadeth/NOFX producer Cameron Webb expertly handling the mix and mastered by Andrew Alekel (Motorhead/Clutch/Fu Manchu) Live At Wacken 2017 features 45 crunching cuts from the likes of Europe, Kreator, Apocalyptica, Uli Jon Roth, Candlemass, Max & Iggor Cavalera and Turbonegro. The collection also features one of the most stirring festival moments ever captured - the voices of 60,000 Wackenites singing Motörhead’s superb cover of  David Bowie’s “Heroes” in tribute to Lemmy, the dearly departed (and sorely missed) godfather of rock and metal music.

Captured by the expert ICS team at the Wacken Festival under the direction of long-time Wacken designer and creative force Kai Swillus, whose innate knowledge of the Wacken scene and its sensibilities has ensured that all Wacken releases have been storming visual hits with the fans.

Consider it entertainment. Consider it proper Wacken training. And consider it an essential viewing for anyone who remotely breathes rock and metal music.
