Third Wave – 10th Anniversary Show - mit Third Wave, Precipitation, Postmodern Fantasy, Void:Embrace & Celestielle
with Third Wave, Precipitation, Postmodern Fantasy, Void:Embrace & Celestielle
On December 19, 2025, Third Wave invites you to the grand anniversary show in Rüsselsheim at the cultural center Das Rind. On the occasion of the band's ten-year anniversary, a special concert evening will take place that not only presents the best from a decade of band history but also features a high-profile line-up of friendly bands.
Third Wave
THIRD WAVE is one of those bands whose recognition is currently far below their potential. Founded in 2015, the band plays modern metal without catering to current trends. Sure, every band claims that – but their debut album "How To Live Or Let Die" already showed that the quintet is taking its own creative path. Of course, THIRD WAVE is not free from influences, but their approach of enhancing their modern sound with metalcore influences, catchy rock moments, and a certain progressive note works perfectly. Their second album "Metamorphosis" showcases a dynamically varied emotional rollercoaster in every song: powerful parts are juxtaposed with emotional moments, a fresh, playful whimsy meets serious mosh pit attacks – that's THIRD WAVE!
In addition to Third Wave themselves, the following acts will be on stage:
Precipitation
We are the quartet Precipitation from South Hesse. We came together to freely express our musical ideas and thoughts. Always with the intention of providing an honest live show with atmosphere that conveys our passion for music on and before the stage. In our first 2 years of band history, we have already performed more than 50 live gigs, gaining both fun and professionalism. Our musical style can be briefly described as guitar-driven melodic death metal. However, despite a lot of heavy elements, we also enjoy exploring the borders of classical and blues, as well as post- and progressive genres. With the free demo "Dazzled," which has been available since February 2014, a first glimpse into our minds is possible. Shortly after its release, we took to the stage to showcase some compositions live.
In November 2015, the recordings for our first full-length album "The Power Of.." were completed. It was recorded at Kohlekeller Studio, Secret Soul Studio, and Kommune2010 Studios. Since October 31, 2016, our work is available in all major stores and on precipitation.de. Within 10 tracks, there is a piece of soul and feeling from each of us musically and lyrically.
Postmodern Fantasy
Inspired by modern pop culture and series like "The Walking Dead" and "The 100," we created this total work of art for your entertainment. Dark and dystopian, yet danceable and captivating. The hard guitar sounds from guitarist Matthias Lenk collide with ethereal electronic sounds, dubstep meets rock, and from this emerges music that enchants with its own magic. The heavy drums from drummer Andreas Lenk merge with electronic drum samples to create fascinating rhythms. Under the creative guidance of singer and composer Franzi Schäfer, a truly unique passion project has arisen, significantly shaped by Kristian "Kohle" Kohlmannslehner in the Kohlekeller studio.
Void:Embrace
VOID:EMBRACE plays state-of-the-art modern metalcore with multifaceted vocals, groovy riffs, and relentless breakdowns.
Between the end of 2022 and spring 2024, the band released their "DISQUIET" EP track by track, accompanied by the first music video for the single "FATE." With over 20,000 streams on Spotify and a steadily growing fanbase in the Rhine-Main area, the band made a name for themselves. In 2025, VOID:EMBRACE aims to rethink all aspects of the band. The tracks "GUILTY" and "ABYSSAL" were mixed and mastered at Überlärm Studio (including Avralize, The Butcher Sisters, Alligatoah). Together with the music video for "ABYSSAL," they send a clear signal: VOID:EMBRACE is on a new level.
Celestielle
In her solo project, Celestielle unites black and doom metal with ethereal harmonies and liturgical undertones, creating a sound that merges mystique and female power into a celestial and seemingly ancient voice. Often compared to artists like Myrkur, Chelsea Wolfe, or Lingua Ignota, she weaves stories of vengeance, rebirth, and sacred sisterhood – supported by clear, choral vocals over raw, atmospheric soundscapes. Celestielle's music opens a space for collective memory, catharsis, and transformation – an intense, ritualistic experience between darkness and enlightenment.
Doors open at 7:00 PM.
