Apa yang Terjadi di Indonesia Disorot oleh Dunia!

Burgerkill dipilih sebagai salah satu penampil terbaik sepanjang tahun 2017 ketika tampil di panggung Wacken Metal Battle Indonesia 2017 (14/5). Acara tersebut adalah kompetisi skala nasional yang digelar atas kerjasama antara Djarum Coklat Dot Com (DCDC), ATAP Promotions, dan The Metal Rebel untuk memberangkat satu band cadas ke Wacken Open Air, Jerman. Saat itu, Burgerkill menjadi band penutup setelah sepuluh band bersaing. Dom Lawson, sebagai bagian dari Metal Hammer Magazine sekaligus juri dari Wacken Metal Battle Indonesia 2017 hadir dan melihat secara langsung.

This headline set from Burgerkill gave us goosebumps for a solid hour, Indonesian metal’s biggest hitters on blistering, imperious form. They followed the 10-band Wacken Metal Battle: an enlightening and fulfilling experience at the very heart of Bandung’s metal community, which is all about unity passion, and a commitment to telling the world about their home-grown scene. Battle contestants Trojan also deserve an honourable mention for being fucking amazing.

 “We loved headlining the Wacken Metal Battle”, says guitarist Ebenz. “It was a great opportunity for metal bands in Indonesia to show their potential and quality. What I remember most is how the friendship between bands is getting stronger, and people are beginning to realise the importance of international recognition. We have got so many great bands – old pioneers and new bands – and shows like this convince me that the Indonesian scene deserves its place on the global stage. Taking part in Wacken really helps us to build an international network, so events like this are incredibly important for all metalheads in Indonesia.”
