New Band Wave for FULL METAL MAYRHOFEN!

Written on . Veröffentlicht in News.

Majestic mountains, crisp alpine air, crystal-clear streams – and somewhere in between, the thunder of riffs, drums, and clinking beer mugs! Welcome to Mayrhofen in the beautiful Zillertal Valley, where nature and metal unite for one of the most unique festivals on Earth.

Full Metal Mayrhofen is the loudest mountain-gathering in Tyrol – where Heavy Metal meets high peaks, and moshpits meet mountain views. It’s an alpine adventure for headbangers who crave both distortion and elevation!

New in the line-up:
Dragony – epic Power Metal quests await.
Bloodbound – Swedish steel and melody in perfect harmony.
Mambo Kurt – the infernal organist of your wildest dreams.
Liquid Steel – pure Heavy Metal, forged without rust.
Turbobier – Vienna’s Punk’n’Beer revolution – fast, loud, and gloriously tipsy!
Rauhbein – German Rock with heart, beard, and horsepower!

Get your tickets, grab your leather jacket, and treat yourself to the finest hotels in the Zillertal – where snow sparkles outside while the hot tub bubbles inside.

Mayrhofen turns up the volume even further: The second wave of bands for Full Metal Mayrhofen 2026 has been announced – and it's a doozy. Eight new acts will make sure the Alps really rock. Here are the new names:

Doro
The undisputed Queen of Metal brings her new album Warriors of the Sea with her and delivers classics plus red-hot anthems. Doro live? Pure energy, zero compromises – Mayrhofen will be headbanging at the highest level.

Ensiferum
Nordic folk metal meets alpine vibe. With their current album Winter Storm in tow and frontman Petri Lindroos ‘roaring like a battle horn over frozen fjords’, Ensiferum deliver epic singalongs and a live show full of power.

Induction
Next-generation symphonic power metal. Tim Kanoa Hansen, son of Helloween legend Kai Hansen, leads Induction with a fresh sound and fat melodies. Born From Fire and The Power Of Power show that they are on a steep upward trajectory – even in the mountains of Mayrhofen.

Seasons in Black
Anthropocene catapulted the band to number 1 in the German metal charts. Lead shouter Lucki Maurer, known from TV cooking shows, adds a special flavour to the sound. On stage, Seasons in Black mix intensity with warmth – dark metal to party to.

And that's not all:

Ozzyfied – the authentic Ozzy/Black Sabbath tribute show.

Blechblosn – brass party that gets even metal fans dancing.

Der Rocka und da Waitla – rock “n” roll made in Bavaria, loud and honest.

Reis Against the Spülmaschine – fun punk & parodies with full-throttle laughs.

Full Metal Mayrhofen 2026 is making a big statement: more legends, more newcomers, more of everything. The countdown to the scene's loudest winter holiday is on – be there or listen to it afterwards.

Der Rocka & da Waitla

Written on . Veröffentlicht in Bands.

Rock’n’roll with a Bavarian soul – Der Rocka und da Waitla deliver energetic songs that move hearts and feet. Their live shows feel like a cozy mountain-hut evening, only louder and wilder. Humor and playfulness are always at the core. Between fat guitars and sing-along choruses, instant togetherness sparks. Like at FMM 2025! We just had to invite them again!

Blechblosn

Blechblosn fuse Bavarian brass music with rock and party vibes that are instantly contagious. Their shows are as colorful as an alpine panorama at sunset. With humor, groove and surprising cover versions, they make every crowd laugh and dance. Brass sounds and percussion swirl joyfully through the mountain air. Mayrhofen will feel pure alpine party power.

Reis against the Spülmaschine

This comedy duo serves up fun punk and clever parodies that make every crowd laugh. With songs like “Hast du Saufen mal probiert?” they turn everyday stories into festival hits. Their show feels as fresh as the season’s first snowy day. Spontaneous moments make every concert unique. Mayrhofen will become a stage for humor and music without limits.

Dragony

Founded 2007 in Vienna, Dragony blend symphonic power metal with epic fantasy themes so big they echo through mountain valleys. Their newest album *Hic Svnt Dracones* (2024) invites you into a world of undead emperors, cyber‑knights and dragon‑fire riffs. Fun fact: singer Siegfried holds a university degree in history—and yes, he uses it for the lyrics. On the Alpine stage their majestic sound will tower like the peaks themselves.

Mambo Kurt

Written on . Veröffentlicht in Bands.

Doctor by trade, Metal comedy legend by fate: Mambo Kurt transforms Slayer, Rammstein and Motörhead into dizzying organ‑covers for the most bizarre après‑ski mosh‑experience ever. His 2024 album Sommerhits includes cover‑versions and an original track called “Der Sommer wird geil”. Fun fact: He was West‑German champion on the home‑organ (under‑14 category) back in 1982. At Mayrhofen expect a wild fusion of Metal, hammond organ and Apre Ski insanity.

Liquid Steel

From Innsbruck, Liquid Steel keep the old‑school Heavy Metal flame burning. Formed in 2009, they moved from covers to originals with albums like Mountains of Madness (2021), inspired by Lovecraft, mountains and midnight storms. Fun fact: their tour‑bus clocked more miles than the Brenner Autobahn. At Full Metal Mayrhofen they bring unadulterated steel‑riffs to the icy air.

Seasons In Black

Written on . Veröffentlicht in Bands.

With Anthropocene Seasons in Black serve up a bold statement for modern Dark Metal – and the secret flavor might just be the spice mix of chef-shouter Lucki Maurer, also known as a TV cook! This heavy-metal cake tasted so good that Metal Hammer lifted it straight to No. 1 in the charts. Live, they blend gripping intensity with surprising warmth. In Mayrhofen, dark sounds will meet a radiant mountain landscape.

Ozzyfied

Written on . Veröffentlicht in Bands.

Ozzyfied celebrate the legend Ozzy Osbourne with heart and sharp rock attitude. Classics like Crazy Train or Paranoid sound as fresh as first tracks in new snow. The band brings the unique Ozzy feeling to every stage – close to the original yet full of their own energy. Their shows unite generations of Rock fans, having found their most dedicated fanbase amongst the Metalheads in the W:O:A Universe!
