Whether swivelling your head
with the moshers in front of
the stage or kicking it back at
the bar with a triple whiskey
on the rocks (which has to be
the official festival drink), you
were all part of the same big,
happy metal family.

“It’s all about doing it at the
actual location. The location
is almost more important than
the story as the places are very
much central to the action.
For the first shoot, I’m going
to Snæfellsjökull where I will
dress up as Bárður (Snæfellsás)
and have a cup of tea.”
Artist Fergal McCarthy plans to follow in the
footsteps of Vikings

Amazed by the colours as the
incredible underworld land-
scape that appeared under-

algae, beige rocks and spooky
caves, I was soon lost in my
own thoughts, lazily scouting
for curious sights in the water.
