"This year's American battles witnessed Wacken Metal Battle USA's expansion to more cities, more bands and more metal! I'm always excited to see who will be the king of the ring from all the bands participating. I want to thank all the bands for entering and performing in the competition, all the judges and city promoters plus all our partners that helped spread the word and making our 2nd year an amazing event. We're looking forward to next year and sending more independent American metal to Wacken!"
