On January 7th, German rockers The New Black celebrated their 10th Anniversary in the bustling metropolis of Schweinfurt with their very own Blackfest. The band's faithful followers braved sub-zero temperatures, lousy highway conditions and a questionable assortment of beer for a night of balls-out The New Black, former tourmates Motorjesus, and local act Serpent Smile and the town's old train station, the Stattbahnhof, which now serves as a full time concert venue.
Following high energy sets from Serpent Smile and Motorjesus - the latter featuring The New Black's Christof Leim as a guest guitarist - The New Black quietly took the stage, without fanfare, for a five-song acoustic set. It was immediately followed by a 17 song full-on rock set covering the band's four album career chronologically, digging into The New Black (2009), II: Better in Black (2011), III: Cut Loose (2013), and A Monster's Life (2016).
