The best German-speaking heavy metal authors share their musical awakening experiences in party basements and excesses at summer camps. They report from the Mecca of metalheads - the Wacken Open Air - from the rehearsal room of a major death metal hope, and from their own tragically comical stage experiences as a metal reading ensemble. Shadowy figures spread fear and terror, the exit of Monster Eddie from Iron Maiden is journalistically dissected without mercy, and finally, someone explains the complicated rules of the trend sport 'Wurstgefuchtel'. A great fun with Christian Bartel, Till Burgwächter, Paul Fejfar, Micha-El Goehre, Francis Kirps, Ronald R. Klein, Axel Klingenberg, Christian Krumm, Matthias Penzel, and Frank Schäfer, who once again prove that heavy metal is much more than just music. Francis Kirps describes how the representative of the travel agency TUI, in his Meat Loaf shirt and Klaus Meine cap, was surrounded by half a dozen Lemmys. The whole ship was full of Lemmy, Philthy, and Würzel lookalikes; they were the winners of the Europe’s Best Motörhead Cover Band Contest. Axel Klingenberg reports on the reading at the summer festival of the youth center B 58, which was a resounding success. All ten attendees were thrilled, especially the two social workers. Of course, more young people could have been there, but they arrived later to see the Christian reggae band.
