Kieler Nachrichten: "... And then 'Hells Bells' ring out loud for what is yet to come.The sound is ama-
zingly close to the original AC/DC, performed perfectly - closing your eyes you might even imagine
good old Brian Johnson directly in front of you. So much for voice-authenticity of Powerage's singer ... " -
Hildesheimer Allgemeine Zeitung: "... During the years 60 bands from Germany or England have per-formed at the "Bornum Rock". A first class finish was provided by Hamburg-based AC/DC revival
band "Powerage" (spelling corrected, the webmaster). For quite some listeners it was hard to tell
cover songs from original material. ... " -
Kieler Nachrichten: "... Equipped with a throat that would make AC/DC's Brian Johnson cry, Chris Laut, wearing the typical flat cap, grabs the microphone and goes from zero to full spead ahead. Guitars, drums or bass, the almost genuine way of playing and the dry, mighty sound conjure a steaming breeze of the Australian legend. The material serves both Bon Scott- and Brian Johnson-Fans well. Classics from 'Dirty deeds done dirt cheap' to 'Touch to much' transform Kiel into a 'Sin City',all moshing and playing imaginary guitars. ... "

Nordwestzeitung: "... There are a number of AC/DC-tribute-bands around, but only quite a few perform
as close to the Australian legend as Hamburg-based 'Powerage'. The five boys from Germany's northern coast made the fans sweat like crazy on Saturday at Cloppenburg's renowned music pub 'Briefkasten'. With 'Hells Bells', frontman Chris Laut, sporting an almost genuine Johnson-style-voice, and Roland von Behr, performing excellent Lead-Guitar-work, as well as Matthias Strehse (Rhythm-Guitar, Steffen Detlow (Bass) and Nico Lempessis (Drums) launched into their two-and-a-half hours battery-like set of AC/DC-mega-hits - nonstop, mind you - and closed their steaming show with 'Whole Lotta Rosie'. The fans ... at sold-out Briefkasten were going wild. ... A sing-along-party including workout, good vibrations and remembrances of three decades - thanks to 'Powerage HH'- the 'as-close-as possible-AC/DC'."
