MERCENARY Comment On Wacken 2008; Post Studio Report





Danish metal act MERCENARY has been confirmed to play at the legendary metal festival Wacken Open Air, which will be held from July 31st – August 2nd, 2008 in the German town Wacken.

Guitarist Jakob Mølbjerg comments: “It's a privilege for Mercenary to be able to return to Wacken this year. Playing there in 2005 was a great experience and we're certain that the festival will be a blast again this year, especially because of the amazing bill so far! Of course we're also looking immensely forward to bringing the songs from our coming album out to the hordes of German metallers!”
