And honestly: That\u2019s exactly how it should be. Because there are bands that never get old. They just get better at what they do.   <\/p>\n<p>CLAWFINGER are pioneers of rap metal\/crossover from Stockholm, founded in 1989. Their sound thrives on groove, riffs, and that direct, rhythmic way of telling stories that immediately grabs your attention. But what makes them special isn\u2019t just the music\u2014it\u2019s their attitude. In the \u201990s, CLAWFINGER were one of the loudest European voices speaking out against racism, war, and political hypocrisy. And to this day, that doesn\u2019t sound like nostalgia\u2014it sounds like \u201cunfortunately, still relevant.\u201d    <\/p>\n<p>For Reload fans, this means: You won\u2019t get a polished \u201cbest-of\u201d show, but rather a band that, when performing live, excels at one thing above all else: delivering a powerful impact\u2014both musically and in terms of their message. The classics are spot-on, the hooks hit hard, and Zak Tell is just as direct on stage as you\u2019d want him to be when a band has something to say. <\/p>\n<p>It worked in 2019. It\u2019ll work in 2023, too. It\u2019ll work again in 2027\u2014because CLAWFINGER delivers exactly the kind of crossover that\u2019s not just there to go along with the crowd, but to make you think  <\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-3000854226 {\n  font-size: 1.25rem;\n  line-height: 1.35;\n  text-align: left;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div class=\"social-icons follow-icons artist-single-social-icons\" style=\"font-size:147%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/clawfinger.net\" target=\"_blank\" data-label=\"Facebook\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip facebook\" title=\"Follow on Facebook\" aria-label=\"Follow on Facebook\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/clawfingerofficial\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-label=\"Instagram\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip instagram\" title=\"Follow on Instagram\" aria-label=\"Follow on Instagram\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-instagram\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.clawfinger.net\/\" data-label=\"Website\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip website tooltip\" title=\"Follow on Website\" aria-label=\"Follow on Website\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-website\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/bands\" class=\"button primary is-xxlarge artist-single-all-bands-btn show-for-small\" style=\"padding:3px 25px 0px 25px;\">\n\t<i class=\"icon-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>\t<span>All bands<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1906402073 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n  margin-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9127,"parent":6448,"menu_order":12,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9131","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9131","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9131"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9131\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9468,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9131\/revisions\/9468"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6448"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9127"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reload-festival.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9131"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
