The classic tunes (and the pyro) didnt let up in the second half of the set, as songs like Seasons in the Abyss, Chemical Warfare, South of Heaven, and Show No Mercy were executed with precision and power.

It’s the final day of Hellfest and the hottest so far, with temperatures reaching a scorching degrees. It’s warm enough for the stewards in front of the open air stages to get the fire hoses out, showering the front rows with water to keep everyone as cool as possible.

The last day of a festival can be tough. The days of drinking are catching up with you, your body aches and the impending doom of returning to reality looms on the horizon.
