The outdoor stage on the 2nd day of Steelfest XI was the place for explosive and often high velocity performances by Tsatthoggua, Sex Messiah, Grenadier, Witchtrap, Kalmankantaja and Behexen!
Steelfest XI was the first time to be a full 3-day event, and the first day was killer with bands like Coraxul, Azazel, Nattverd, Utuk Xul, Hail Conjurer, Nocturnal Sorcery, Sacrilegious Impalement, Loits, The Committee, Pest, Horna, Deströyer 666 and Marduk!
The amount of intensity and energy that came from Igorrr at the Pakkahuone venue in Finland last month, and with them Amenra and Der Weg Einer Freiheit, was something that was perfect to start off the week! If we still somewhat had the Monday blues, they made sure to absolutely blast it away!
Igorrr returned to the Finnish shores with their “Distortion European Tour”, joined by Amenra and Der Weg Einer Freiheit, bringing not only a musical treat, but also a visual feast to the Pakkahuone venue in Tampere!
