ROCK AM RING REVIEW: Silverstein’s Captivating, Career-Spanning Set to Remember

Welcome to the ultimate celebration of raw energy, heart-pounding rhythms, and electrifying performances. It’s time to buckle up and dive headfirst into the world of Rock Am Ring 2023, where music aficionados from all walks of life unite under the banner of rock ‘n’ roll. Join us on this extraordinary journey as we witness the power of rock, metal and everything in between in all its glory. Rock Am Ring 2023 promises to be a monumental chapter in the festival’s storied history and you’ll find all the coverage you need right here at Strife Mag.

Throughout the years, I honestly cannot count on two hands anymore how often we have seen Silverstein, these guys are just that good. Be it a bit of nostalgia, but the Canadian emo-band keeps producing exceptional album after album, and with that cementing their place in everyone’s cold dead emo hearts for years and years on end.

Silverstein shared on stage they have not played Rock Am Ring since 2007, and even if they played while headliner Foo Fighters were playing the mainstage, a big number of fans came out to see Silverstein instead. Their setlist did kind of share the sentiment I just did in the paragraph above, that even with a lot of fans knowing Silverstein from their formative years, the setlist was surprisingly diverse, ranging from their first album all the way up to the most recent effort Misery Made Me. Of course, the usual suspects My Heroine, Smile In Your Sleep and Giving Up made the rounds, but a lot of newer material was also played in the 16-song setlist. Silverstein even played an incredible cover of Linkin Park’s One Step Closer. These guys have been around the block and it shows. Charismatic and comfortable on stage, Silverstein deliver live music of the highest order, while consistently treating the fans to that Canadian charm.

Last year, when Silverstein played the Dutch festival Jera on Air, we sat down with frontman Shane Told and asked him whether the band would ever play The Altar/Mary live due to the fact that it is an incredible song. You can imagine our excitement when the band did in fact close their set with the heaviest song they have ever made (The Altar), to then finish it off with an absolutely stunning solo performance of frontman Shane Told for the last part of the song (Mary). Silverstein are and will forever be a cornerstone in the alternative music community and we cannot wait for whatever they do next.

Motionless In White @ Rock Am Ring 2023

ROCK AM RING REVIEW: Motionless In White Are Hauntingly Brilliant On Orbit Stage

Welcome to the ultimate celebration of raw energy, heart-pounding rhythms, and electrifying performances. It’s time to buckle up and dive headfirst into the world of Rock Am Ring 2023, where music aficionados from all walks of life unite under the banner of rock ‘n’ roll. Join us on this extraordinary journey as we witness the power of rock, metal and everything in between in all its glory. Rock Am Ring 2023 promises to be a monumental chapter in the festival’s storied history and you’ll find all the coverage you need right here at Strife Mag.

Even if it has been just a few months since Motionless In White played shows all across Europe as direct support of Beartooth, we were excited to witness the band again. This time playing an almost hour-long set, Motionless In White came out swinging with a setlist mostly consisting of songs from the band’s most recent, and very popular, album Scoring The End of The World. Of course the setlist also included some of the ‘older’ fan favourites, such as Eternally Yours and Reincarnate. It is interesting to note that Motionless’ setlist did consist of all younger albums. It seems that the older work, from before 2014, has been replaced on the festival setlists atleast, due to the rise in popularity of the band in recent years.

If you have ever seen Motionless In White live, you know that Motionless In White‘s stage presence is a visual feast, combining gothic aesthetics, captivating theatrics, and elaborate costumes. The band members’ striking appearances, with their dark attire and intricate makeup, enhanced the ambience of their performance.

It merely adds to an already impeccable performance, as Motionless In White truly have mastered the art of live performance throughout the years. The musicians are comfortable on stage, and seamlessly combine musicianship with entertainment and if you ever do have the chance to see Motionless In White live, do yourself a favour and go for it.

Set It Off @ Rock Am Ring 2023

ROCK AM RING REVIEW: Set It Off Play First-Ever Rock Am Ring Show

Welcome to the ultimate celebration of raw energy, heart-pounding rhythms, and electrifying performances. It’s time to buckle up and dive headfirst into the world of Rock Am Ring 2023, where music aficionados from all walks of life unite under the banner of rock ‘n’ roll.

While Set It Off have been a very well-known force within the alternative music scene, the band recently made the step to go independent. Fueled by their independence, the band have now released 2 songs on their own, booked an entire tour and festival in the US and are now winning over hearts in Europe at various festivals. Amongst those festivals, was the first-ever appearance of the band on Rock Am Ring. Set It Off had a tough timeslot to fill, playing the Orbit stage at the same time as Rise Against were playing the mainstage, but luckily, a lot of fans came out to see them and they were not disappointed. Set It Off‘s performance at Rock Am Ring was nothing short of exceptional. Their explosive energy, seamless genre fusion, and engaging stage presence created an atmosphere of unbridled enthusiasm.

Besides the new singles Win Win and Punching Bag, Set It Off played the familiars, including Projector, Killer In The Mirror, Loose Cannon and even switched it up with frontman Cody Carson and drummer Maxx Danziger switching places for the performance of Hypnotized.

The future is bright for Set It Off, and we cannot wait to see what’s coming next. Want to stay tuned on all of our Rock Am Ring 2023 coverage? Connect with us! and check the Set It Off photos right below!

ROCK AM RING REVIEW: Yungblud Takes Mainstage By Storm

Welcome to the ultimate celebration of raw energy, heart-pounding rhythms, and electrifying performances.

From the moment Yungblud stepped foot on stage, the atmosphere transformed into a riotous frenzy. His relentless energy radiated through the festival grounds, captivating the audience with a magnetic force. With every jump, scream, and passionate gesture, Yungblud commanded the stage with an infectious intensity that had the crowd in the palm of his hand.

While the set lasted ‘only’ 50 minutes, Yungblud did not skimp on the entertainment aspect of his show. While most of the songs on his discography are rather short, Yungblud only played a total of 10 songs on account of running around, having sing-alongs with the crowd and even turning the crowd against the people in the ‘posh’ seats. Real classy.

ROCK AM RING REVIEW: FEVER 333 Continue To Amaze With Fresh New Line-Up

Welcome to the ultimate celebration of raw energy, heart-pounding rhythms, and electrifying performances. It’s time to buckle up and dive headfirst into the world of Rock Am Ring 2023, where music aficionados from all walks of life unite under the banner of rock ‘n’ roll.

There are very few bands in our alternative scene that match the energy of FEVER 333 and their performance at the mainstage of Rock Am Ring 2023 was yet another testament to that fact. Even with the band missing 2 of its 3 core members not even a year ago, frontman Jason Aalon Butler found his new band mates in April Kae (bass), Thomas Pridgen (drums) & Brandon Davis (guitar). Continuing as a four-piece band, FEVER 333 continue to bring the quality you’d expect of them. Their music can be best described by a fusion of rock, punk, hip-hop, and alternative elements, resulting in a high-energy and unapologetic sonic experience. Their lyrics tackle pressing issues such as racism, inequality, and political unrest, serving as a catalyst for change and a call to action, and they do it while delivering an explosive performance of the highest order. It did not come as a surprise for anyone that FEVER 333 have moved on from the Mandora stage, and are now playing the mainstage after garnering an almost dangerous amount of people to a stage that was not meant to house that many people. FEVER 333 are climbing and we are here for it.
