The habitants from the village Dobroslavtsi have been trained to endure noise from planes, cause it is a small airport, but on the 22th, 23th and 24th of June you can’t hear the planes – only the three massive stages and the singing crowd for the second edition of Elevation Festival Bulgaria. The first “warm…
A few hours before the concert. There are thousands of people in front of the hall. There are hundred of sings “Looking for tickets”, but none with “Selling”. People with t-shirts, bandanas, body paintings waiting without any patience for everything to start. The picture was beautiful. This is pretty much the expectation for a band…
I’m embarrassed to say that that I’ve been listening and loving the music, called ska, right now, cause I heard the name Baked A La Ska just a week ago. They refer to themselves as the “heavy heavy sound” of Manchester, a super charged 11-headed ska monster on a rampage through the dance floors of…
Det är en i det närmsta full lokal som väntar Haparandas hjältar när de kliver på scenen vid midnatt. Och det är en blandad skara folk, allt från stekarfrisyrer till skogshuggarskägg och längst fram – ett gäng gotare. Vad de här lackbeklädda figurerna ser i Raubtiers musik vet jag inte, i vilket fall som helst…
Limb Music/Sound Pollution Italian symphonic epic power metal band FOGALORD began life in 2008, as band leader Dany Ali was looking for ways to display his creative output. Dany first went professional with SYNTPHONIA SUPREMA, and cut two albums with them, before beginning on a concept album of the history of his home town. Will…
Infernö Records/Underground Power TRAZORVYRE was formed in 2008 by Chris Calavrias, lead guitars, and James Murray, rhythm guitars, and the aim was clearly to write and perform heavy metal as if the 80´s had never ended. They first recruited drummer Nick Oakes, a bassist, and vocalist 7-Chylde. A five track EP soon materialized, and was…
Limb Music/Sound Pollution Here comes more heavy metal from the land of the Romans. Pisa is famed for its leaning tower, but VEXILLUM wants to make you notice the town´s heavy metal as well. Or at least the Folk heavy metal, as the five members pose proudly in kilts. Back in 2004 they formed as…
Escape/Sound Pollution REDLINE are a true hard rock band from Birmingham, England. Heard that one before? Well there are a few really famous forerunners… REDLINE formed in 2006 around the prospect of writing nu-classic rock songs. The band consists of Kez Taylor, vocals, A.D., guitars, Steve Petty, guitars, Mark Biddiscombe, drums and Redvers on bass….
Frontiers/BAM Since their debut ”The First Chapter” (2005) CIRCUS MAXIMUS has released the smashing ”Isolate”, so anticipations are rather high for this new album. The band has reached an incredible status in those relatively short years, boosting incredible musical abilities, as well as a vocalist to match in Michael Eriksen. And who can be disappointed…
Ett utsålt KB en rekordvarm höstlördag blev ännu hetare när Kanadensarna Danko Jones rev av sin in-your-face attitydfyllda rock. Som Mr. Jones själv uttryckte sig så var publiken packad som sardiner. Det var ett enda galet party där en crowdsurfare dyker upp redan under en av de första låtarna. Svettigare konsert är det länge sedan…
Raubtier är mitt inne i en hektisk turnéperiod. Men för bandets frontman Per Hulkoff är det inga problem att hitta motivationen. – Det är ganska enkelt om man jämför med det andra alternativet. Att jobba som skogshuggare eller tar värvning igen är inget som lockar norrlänningen. Det verkar han inte behöva heller, sedan Raubtier släppte…
First album of the young swedish band called ’Debt’ is a real new piece for the trash metal fan’s collections. Wasted Shells – which is inspired by big metal kings-, is mixing quite well the feeling of melodic styles of the genre, and the hard dark music, in a beautiful gloomy meaning of combining speeds…
