00:00To have 1,800 people in North East Yorkshire is incredible.

00:06It's a little surreal.

00:08We are in the town and we have characters from the town

00:11and characters from the city of the city,

00:13and people who are welcome.

00:15But not on time, the vibe is really positive.

00:18Everyone has been told, there is a festival,

00:21there's a little more, what is it?

00:22It's rock music, it's good, it's good.

00:25Sometimes there are risks,

00:27but sometimes there are risks,

00:29but it seems to me that Scarborough welcomes this with weapons.

00:32When we arrive at the festival,

00:34we were all taken by his.

00:37Scarborough is a very beautiful place.

00:41Coming to Scarborough Spa is very beautiful too.

00:45It's not a very typical place to have a festival,

00:48which makes it even cooler.

00:52Even though it's super serious, black metal,

00:55and everyone is super evil and everyone,

00:58everyone is really nice.

01:01Everyone is really nice.

01:03Everyone is just human,

01:05and everyone is very nice.

01:08He just wants to have a good show.

01:09He just wants to have a good show.

01:10Everyone just wants the same place.

01:12Everyone just wants the show to go well.

01:15So, yeah, it's really good.

01:17You know, it's really good.

01:18You know, everyone relaxed.

01:19There is plenty of space.

01:20You can go above the air if you want.

01:22You know, it's just a really interesting,

01:25relaxed and positive vibe.

01:28There are preconceptions about this kind of people

01:31are into this kind of music,

01:32and a little prejudice,

01:34also, around the stage.

01:35But I think they are very surprised.

01:38to hear that, for example,

01:40I just sat, a few minutes ago,

01:42who said that part of my music

01:43is that I want to make light

01:44in the world.

01:45It's what you don't think

01:47if you hear that it's a project of the black-metal adjacent.

01:50So, yeah, I think it really is

01:52a more diverse genre,

01:54a more diverse genre

01:56that people who are not familiar with

01:57and who can give credit for being.

01:59I think the thing that makes Fortress

02:01so special,

02:02is that each person who was waiting

02:04the festival, no doubt,

02:06because everyone is so in love.

02:09And it's just really celebratory.

02:14The whole thing is very positive,

02:15and I know that's another thing

02:16to say, it's one thing to say

02:17a style that is routed

02:18in aggression and anger

02:19and hope,

02:20but it is the appropriate place

02:22for Chanel that.

02:23You see, you see,

02:24in a room,

02:25abduction,

02:26screaming,

02:27misanthropic,

02:28nihilism,

02:29for 15 minutes,

02:30and you channel all that,

02:31and you think,

02:32it's a little better.

02:33It's a very cathartic

02:34and positive experience.
