Nothing Sacred, one of Australia’s pioneering heavy metal bands, is kicking off their highly anticipated 2024 European summer tour tomorrow at Headbangers Open Air, taking them all over Europe until they wrap things up at Speed Metal Party in Tampere, Finland halfway August!
Big anniversary this year with TollRock taking place for 20th time! That is a serious reason to celebrate. On the additional opening day, Oi! outfit BOOZE AND GLORY opened up and the iconic H-BLOCKX took over to kick off the festivities.
Finnish thrashers Mutant Blast haunt fans with a horror inspired video for the track ‘Final Day’, from their upcoming album ‘Soulsteeler’, set for release in September via Rockshots Records!
Day one of Tuhdimmat Tahdit in it’s all renewed version gave us Kotiteollisuus, Marko Hietala, Lost Society, Stratovarius, Mokoma, Stam1na and Amorphis. What a great festival that we sure will return to again in the future.
For more than 40 years, AGNOSTIC FRONT brings the finest New York Hardcore to the concert hall stages and festivals around the globe. Europe and its loyal NY HC fan base is a reason to tour annually. This summer they hit European venues on their ‘Urban Decay Tour 2024’. With the opening date being a totally sold-out gig at Café Central in Weinheim, Germany. Turning every venue into a constant circle-pit and sweaty moshing area, the NYHC veterans excite the audiences of all ages. A band not to be missed out on whenever they come to a venue close to you!
The second day of Tuska 2024 will get at least as exciting as the day before, we highly recommend you don’t sit out on the shows of Ankor, VOLA, Solence, St. Aurora, Make Them Suffer, I Am Your God, Bring Me The Horizon and The Abbey!
While it’s a given that as a metalfan you’ll want to catch shows of Dimmu Borgir and Kerry King today at the first day of Tuska, we think that there are a couple more bands that deserve some of your attention, or that we think will be even more epic to see live than you might suspect with editorial picks Lord of the Lost’s festival opening show, I Am The Night, Infected Rain, Krypta, Suburban Tribe, Assemble The Chariots, Zeal & Ardor and Pendulum!
German black metal legends Tsatthoggua return with an intense aggression on their comeback album ‘We Are God’. Out via Osmose Productions.
Per “Hellbutcher” Gustavsson incarnates the old school satanic black/thrash on his new project band Hellbutcher. The self-titled debut presents a high quality of classic raw metal that would remind fans of the glorious era of 80s. Out on Metal Blade Records.
Tomorrow it’s again that time of the year: Tuska weekend is upon us! If somehow you weren’t convinced yet that you need to go, here are 10 reasons we believe should be enough motivation to still get a ticket if any are available still! Going from a great line-up, to Tuska KVLT, Tuska Expo expanding further and simply an amazing atmosphere! See you there!
