- In addition to Nick Cave, the super metal band Fury and Dead Cross, who plays hardcore punk, guaranteed Wednesday was the darkest and darkest day of the festival
- a big scene was assembled by an English band Arctic Monkeys, who served the fans with a proven ensemble of their festival bangerów
Mystery in the sun
Nick Cave playing in the hot sun – this is not just. In the case of other artists, this place in the line-up can be considered very attractive – these hours and an hour and a half before dark are beautiful views and even better photos. Nick Cave and Bad Seeds, however, these rules do not apply, and his patient performance should take place in the dark. However, Cave has shown that it can create a mystery in absolutely any condition and probably even if he was playing in an inflatable castle on the playground, we would be devastated and overwhelmed. God, King, charisma in concentrate – you could hear after the performance of the Australian. He started with "Jesus Alone" – a train of mourning, which opens the last recording of "Skeleton Tree" recorded after the death of the son. Nick Cave quickly left his colleagues at Bad Seeds – the artist can not warm up the scene for a long time and as usual, he went down to the public during the second song. The artist swept people standing under the stage with their piercing eyes and hid above them like a predator. Many times he even picked up some "victims" from the crowd, which he drew on the stage for a moment. The set of songs that served us Cave should please all fans of the artist – in Gdynia we heard a sample of Cave's creativity. There was a disturbing "From Her To Eternity" and a hypnotic "Red Right Hand".
At the "Jubilee Street" with the sunset (finally!) You remember why the concerts take place. And do not forget until the end of Cave's performance, because the intensity has not decreased for a moment. Immediately after Warren Ellis grabbed the violin and wistfully started "The Weeping Song", which ended with public participation.
After what he did on the first day of Open & # 39; er there is no doubt that Nick Cave is a great artist, full of charm and magnetism. Cave is aware of his influence and although he has recently spent 60 years and has already spent nearly 40 on stage, he does not let us forget his mastery … 19659008 A British invasion in two scenes
Before and after the mystery of Nick Cave The English occupied the main stage of Open 'er. The British invasion of Wednesday has proved to be the most effective of Arctic Monkeys.
The team gathered the largest audience that managed to effectively stop the open communication arteries that day. Before the concert began, the scene was so hot and hot that the medical services had to intervene. Fortunately, the temperature dropped slightly when the Arctic Monkeys came out on stage, because "Four on Five", where the band started the concert, is rather lazy and certainly not a stadium piece. It seemed very smart, especially with a rich instrumentarium.
It seems that Alex Turner suffers from a chronic demotion and plays a different era on each album. Arctic Monkeys started with the indie garage game and for 10 years have already gone through the era of rock blues, stoner rock, and now have returned in the 70's. All the makeovers are accompanied by the appropriate Turner styles, who now appears in vintage costumes and looks like he's on a Las Vegas stage. but this rock chameleon game makes Sheffield's group still worthy of attention. If they were pretty boys, all of them denim, who are hiding behind long hair and guitars, we would probably react to them today, as with the Kaiser Chiefs or Franz Ferdinand – "do they still exist?" While the new album "Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino" could be a surprise to fans, at concerts, Alex Turner and his colleagues offer their fans exactly what they expected. Although the new album was represented by five titles, the rest of the setlist consisted of a set of proven bangerów, which Arctic Monkeys has been making for years in European festivals. There was something to jump ("Brainstorm", "I bet you're good on the dancefloor"), "Crying Lightning" and sing in public with the audience ("Do I Wanna Know?").
On Open & # 39; er this year, he became extremely western. The festival was finally full (almost – there are tickets for individual days, but sold-out tickets are still important), good weather not with us, many foreign languages, we learned that the concerts are fun without talking too much and pushing elbows and even protection are more enjoyable than ever. We can also afford a Noel Gallagher concert at 6pm, as part of a casual warm-up. Since the dissolution of Oasis, the artist has released three albums with his band, High Flying Birds, but for the two Gallagher brothers, the new albums are above all a great opportunity to exchange harshness through the media. Noel Gallagher can not refuse the composer's talent and the album of last year's "Who Built The Moon" confirms it. We all know, however, that we did not come to hear his great new songs, but mostly Oasis hits. Gallagher is aware of this, that he admitted from the scene, after which he played the cult "Wonderwall."
The level of emotions under the stage scene Orange during the performance of English was rather summer and the mood lazy and picnic. It's warmed up when Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds has taken to the studio pieces of the Oasis repertoire as mentioned "Wonderwall", "The importance of being inactive" or "Do not look back in anger ". Although on Gallagher everyone looks with him through the prism of the past and the group that no longer exists, we must admit that the artist tolerates it with dignity and plays what we want to hear .
With Mission and Dance [19659005] The problem was that the public did not have the group Gang Śródmieście. Although the trio played on a rather difficult stage Firestone Stage, which is stuck between the gastro zone and the advertising of the tires, in spite of the beginning of the concert, there were under the scene of the blows and the emotions. The District of Śródmieście gang includes Karolina Czarnecka, Nela Gzowska and Magda Dubrowska, who took the pseudonyms of Burkini, Bikini and Dziara, and all they do is symbolic and missionary. The group was formed a year ago on the occasion of women's day and is supposed to give the floor to women. You can send an email to Gang with your story, and they will make a song. Their repertoire raises serious issues like chauvinism in the music industry, but also more banal, though intriguing for women – as the need to dress up "in a girlish way "at school.
Minimalist in the studio version of the song. Downtown Gang offers simple gaming pads from a laptop, a guitar, a bass and a voice, but with a proper commitment, such a game is enough. Karolina Czarnecka, until then better known as a singer actress, shows the true charisma of Gang. And as it is a feminist team, socially and politically involved, it was not without ideological statements. Gang Śródmieście thanked the band Pearl Jam of the scene, who a day earlier, during a concert in Krakow, publicly supported the women's strike, the artists themselves also declared their support. And even if the quote "I do not want your arms anymore, I want to read Maria Janion" will not become the hymn of Open this year, it 's all very well that' s. a strong feminist voice finds its place in the festival.
For a large group of festival-goers Wednesday was not Nick Cave or Arctic Monkeys, but the Migos trio, who shortly after midnight took over the biggest stage of the festival. Takeoff, Quavo and Offset are Atlanta's cousins in the southern United States and one of the biggest names in American hip-hop. Drake recently confirmed their position, which invited them to a joint tour. Migos concerts release wild energy to the public, visible in Gdynia. From the beginning, the sea of hands stirred under a large stage, and the gentlemen on the stage only threw firewood into the fire. It was quite possible to continue the evening with Chvrches. Until now, the trio's sweet synth-pop sound received a huge punch in the form of drummer Jonny Scott.
Touching the Extreme
One of the most interesting moments of Wednesday was the Silesian Fury Concert. Their performance can be treated as an answer to the question that has arisen for years "but why is there no metal on Open?" This is a fairly legitimate question – after all, the foreign festivals with which one compares the party of Gdynia, like Primavera of Barcelona, have metal bands in their groups. Furia and so went to Gdynia – the group led by Nihil appears in the performance "Wedding" presented as part of the Open Theater, so that they can find a comfortable slot for Alter Stage.
Participation during the Furia concert is a good answer to the question for metal at Open & # 39; er. Although from time to time the Alter Stage tent has been visited by a group of smiling and emotional young people, to lick the extreme and film the 30 seconds of the evil group for instastory, it does not make any sense. there was no crowd. It must be admitted, however, that this small audience was messed up, heavily involved and was trying to recreate as faithfully as possible the atmosphere of a metal concert – the mill and the cries of "napier *** aj" were playing under the stage. However, the presence of Fury on Open & # 39; er can be considered a successful experience. Despite the roots of black-metal, the sound of the group today enters the folk-pagan and post-rock mood and should be quite digestible in the line-up of the festival.
The first day of 2018 'Open' was really heavy and dark except Nick Cave. and Furii in Gdynia, we could also see the Super Cross Dead band led by Mike Patton, accompanied by Dave Lombardo (Slayer, Fantomas), Mike Crain (Retox) and Justin Pearson (Locust, Head Wound City). Musically the closest formation of hardcore punk, and Mike Patton writhing surprisingly on the stage and ripping the microphone. The singer also found a moment to talk to the audience and asked what else we saw today at the festival. When he heard about Nick Cave, he himself disappeared in awe for him, confirming that the Australian ruled over Open on Wednesday
