Wind Rose let the thunder of dwarven hammers roll across the festival grounds. Joined by Alea (Saltatio Mortis) for "Diggy Diggy Hole". The Italian power metallers stand out with their Tolkien-inspired lyrics and monumental melodies – they sound as if they'd set the mountains themselves to music. With their viral earworm "Diggy Diggy Hole" and anthemic albums like "Trollslayer," they've enriched the genre with a healthy dose of dwarven epic. Live, they transform the stage into a glittering mine full of folk influences and orchestral power. Anyone who sees them quickly realizes: Wind Rose isn't just about music, but about the pure desire for stories, adventures, and the indomitable power of friends who go into battle together.
