Wild metal nights: Elsdorf rocks with motors blast at the open-cast mine!

On July 21, 2025, the event "Music with a View" event took place for the sixth time on the edge of the Elsdorf open -cast mine. The event, which was under the motto "Wakin 'Up Elsdorf", attracted numerous metal fans to the outdoor area of the Terra Nova forum. A place known for its impressive backdrop and offers the perfect background for a heavy metal concert. The concert was ceremoniously opened with Mayor Andreas Heller and Dieter Kirchenbauer.

The first show act of the evening was the metalcore band Lost Sanity, who traveled with her front man Julian Froese from Bedburg. The band, which has been active since 2016, brought the evening with expressive riffs and socially critical texts from their EP "Asylum" to glow. But the highlight was undoubtedly the tribute band Motörblast, which already enjoys a high cult status in the metal scene.

Motörblast and its unbound metal power

Motörblast is known for your authentic live appearances and has made a name for itself across Europe. As a figurehead of the famous Wacken Festival, they delighted around 200 fans with classics such as "Ace of Spades", "Heroes" and "Eat the Rich". The charm of the singer Dr. Ape, based on the legend Lemmy Kilmister, stole the show everyone. The event was described as an evening full of unbound metal power, in which the desire for an early continuation was loud.

The tireless energy that Motörblast brought onto the stage were particularly remarkable. They not only make their force and authenticity a homage to Motörhead, but also highlight them in the long list of heavy metal bands. In combination with SteelPreacher, which are based on the sound of the 1980s and stand for straight heavy metal, the night was a must for every metal fan.
