This live capture conveys Immortal’s sonic power before a sea of festival-goers, all blast beats, cutting riffs and anthems drawn from classics such as At the Heart of Winter and Sons of Northern Darkness. A filmed full concert documenting one of the high points of the band’s live career, at a peak of its international standing. A reference for fans of black metal and large festival concerts, the video captures the unique atmosphere of Wacken at night. Wacken Open Air, which each year gathers tens of thousands of fans from around the world, gives Immortal a stage befitting its status. This live capture illustrates the band’s singular place in the history of black metal, between musical rigour and epic imagery. A must for fans of extreme metal and grand festival gatherings.
