Rammstein confirmed for Rock Werchter 2013

Rammstein are the first act to be confirmed for Belgium's Rock Werchter taking place next year from Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th July.

The German industrial metallers first let slip the news on their Facebook page, before removing it yesterday. Now their website officially confirms them appearing at Nova Rock, Hurricane, Southside, Rock Werchter, Wacken, Greenfield Festival, Fortarock XL, Impac, Rock on Volga, Hurricane Festival, Southside , Sofia Rocks, and Rock over Bucharest.

Rammstein always make a big entrance. The wall of sound, the war of fireworks, the costumes and the provocative lyrics have made a strong brand of the German metal band. You would have to be blind to miss the big dollop of irony in the spectacle. Their peculiar coupling of metal and dance beats - 'Tanzmetall' - is also (or should we say even) popular in nightclubs. Their lyrics are almost always in German, and deliberately so. That's never been a handicap.

Belgium's biggest rock festival offers four days of varied international well known acts in a well organised commercial festival setting in the small village of Werchter in Rotselaar, Belgium.

Rammstein are the first act confirmed. For the line-up details as available please click here.

For four whole days the very best can be seen and heard on three stages in the Festivalpark. Established artists, today's and yesterday's heroes and the big sensations take to the Main Stage as usual. The Pyramid Marquee hosts all flavours of electronic dance on Thursday and Friday. And then it's the upcoming talent, the more intimate performances and dance beats into the small hours on Saturday and Sunday. In the Barn, it will be nice to see old friends, but discover tomorrow's heroes.

Ticket prices have not yet been announced and go on sale on Friday 2nd November 2012, and eFestivals will have links to buy them then.
