Dismember - Infernal Majesty - Månegarm - Graceless - 1914

[Dajana] That was the PARTY SAN OPEN AIR 2019. Once again a very relaxed weekend, a big party with a lot of fun, laughter, good music of course and friends. Yes, the prickle wasn’t as strong as in other years. The billing is a topic, yes, the put more and more bands on the stage doesn’t make it better. Perhaps, my expectations towards the 25th anniversary were just too high.
Indisputable winner of the festival was ROTTING CHRIST. VULVODYNIA was the surprise act to me, and JUNGLE ROT and HYPOCRISY another highlights. Then it’s getting poor. 5, 4 highlights compared to the number of bands on the billing and all the ones I never saw playing live before (quite a few this year) – that is not that much, to be honest.
There have been surely a few pearls in the tent but I didn’t attend any show there. I already had enough to do and action on the main stage ;) And still I did not have enough time to talk to all friends adequately long. Well, next year then ;)

[BRT] There have been doubts and discrepancies in the run-up to the festival (and this will never change, too many people want different things). However, at the end, all doubts ended up in smoke. #PSOA19 was again a great party with great bands (e.g. ROTTING CHRIST and IMMOLATION, or UNDERGANG and NEKROVAULT in the tent), with an unbeatable atmosphere and the best people ever, you meet way too seldom. I have seen great band, had a lot of fun, laughter and splendid conversations and was terribly drunk = best festival! Stay as you are!

[Öko] The PARTY SAN OPEN AIR 2019 was again an excellent entertainment, met old friends and made new ones. But, musical highlights (ROTTING CHRIST, IMMOLATION, SÓLSTAFIR and RUNEMAGICK) were kept within a certain limit. In my opinion, the PSOA makers should reconsider if Black Metal bands at noon under a blazing sun make sense.

[Dajana] And here we are at the end of our live report. To ignite the anticipation for the next year, PARTY SAN OPEN AIR 2020 has already confirmed the first bands:

Dismember - Infernal Majesty - Månegarm - Graceless - 1914
