The next 2 bands for ProgPower Scandinavia 2008 have been announced:

It's with great pleasure we can now announce the next two bands for ProgPower Scandinavia 2008.

Nostradameus from Sweden will be the band to kick off the entire festival Friday October 31st. A fantastic live band that unites full-speed-ahead power metal, classic metal anthems, tons of energy and a good deal of technicality. The bands made one of the best power metal discs in 2007 with the awesome "Pathways", and went straight on a European tour with Jon Oliva's Pain to great success all around. With the next album due sometime in 2008, this is the perfect band to get our festival started out.

Raintime hailing from Italy is second band on stage Saturday November 01st. In spite of their young age (both as individuals as well as a band) they clearly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in 2007, due to their amazing "Flies & Lies" album, gaining huge praisal from media and fans all around the world. A unique mixture of modern day melo-death metal and more powerful progressive music, that will attract an audience from all the different scenes within the heavy metal genre.

Nice Claus! You're making it even more appealing to go to this. Can't wait to see the rest of the band announcements.

And for those of you on last.fm, I have an event page for it - http://www.last.fm/event/492942, updated as Claus teases me. (Tess, you need to make him stop, this isn't fair!!!!)

Okay Claus quit teasing us, I have always wondered if Nostradamus ever played live, now I know. Plans for an anniversary trip are in the works as we speak. Just give me the name of a good hotel in Copenhagen, one that is close to the venue.

John, my friend - put those glasses back on ... it said NOSTRADAMEUS - not Nostradamus :-)

It's NOT the project-metal-opera with the dude from Brazon Abbot, it's the Swedish power metal band. www.nostradameus.com - total kickass metal!!!

Hurry up and announce Morgana Lefay then already!

Shit, though, the four bands we know so far kick ass

I wish I had the money to travel to this.

Perhaps I'll rob a bank if you hurry up and announce Morgana Lefay in time for me to get everything situated.

Hey no problem my friend, with all the kidding I have given you it is only fair i get some in return. ALL TEN ARE CONFIRMED?????? WOOOOOOHOOOOOO will i be surprised by any one of them. And by the way, it looks as if the trip is about 75% a go. The only thing we have to ensure is if my wifey can get that week off. Airline tickets, no problem, in fact they are rather cheap compared to flying to Atlanta only. So will you pick us up at the airport or maybe send Lars. hehehehehehehehehe, i guess we can take the train or a cab. Gotta brush up on my Danish.
