That's quite a bit of metal. |
I'm sure it's something like this. |
The real highlight of the cruise is of course the performances. There are three stages with bands playing from 10am to 4am. You just go wherever you want and there will be some great metal playing. Some bands even play twice so you won't miss anything. All of this of course leads to some shenanigans like throwing Joakim Brodén of Sabaton into the pool when he takes a stage dive.
The next voyage is January 28, 2013. There will once again be around 40 bands and the site states there will be 2000 guests. The full list of bands hasn't been released yet, so here is everyone that was onboard the 2012 trip:
- Alestorm
- Amorphis
- Annihilator
- Atheist
- Cannibal Corpse
- Channel Zero
- Children of Bodom
- Coroner
- Dark Funeral
- Edguy
- Eluveitie
- God Dethroned
- Grave Digger
- Hammerfall
- In Extremo
- Kamelot
- Moonsorrow
- My Dying Bride
- Nightwish
- Overkill
- Pentagram
- Pestilence
- Riot
- Samael
- Stratovarius
- Suffocation
- Tankard
- Therion
- Tristania
- Venom
- Virgin Steele
- Whiplash
In fact, Sabaton liked the experience so much that they decided to make their own heavy metal cruise. The Sabaton Cruise will sail December 9th-10th. It's a much smaller deal, with only three bands playing, but I'm sure it's still pretty awesome.
