“We already have Zorro here, but where is Y-Man, his nemesis?”

Here’s quite the pair of mystical gentlemen to watch out for during the gig. Stam1na, those wayward fellows from rural town of Lemi, have finally gotten what they have rightfully earned: a place at the Main stage. The band is celebrating their thirteen-year-career with a recently released DVD K13V and a tour which purpose is to exhibit their discography as extensively as possible.

The band truly delivered all spoken and unspoken promises as both the older material and the newer songs whipped the metalheads in the crowd into frequent frenzies. It will be interesting to see what the harbingers of Finnish modern metal will come up with in the future when their performance and energy is as strong and furious as witnessed today.
