About a month ago, The Dark Tranquillity “Endtime Signals European Tour 2025” stopped in Lille, France with special guests Moonspell and Hiraes. We were there and saw it was good, together with a roaring crowd!
Besides the epic shows of the headliners at this year’s Rockfest, we picked 10 bands that we think you shouldn’t miss out on if you’re going to the festival this weekend, with Moon Shot, Sepultura, RØRY, Awake Again, Bullet For My Valentine, Jinjer, Cemetery Skyline, Demolition 23, GHØSTKID and Black Flag! Who are you looking forward to the most this weekend? See you there!
Gothic doom icons Paradise Lost prepare for ‘Ascension’ (out in September with Nuclear Blast) with new single ‘Silence Like The Grave’. Catch them live this summer in Europe at festivals like Graspop, Ilovaari Festival and Brutal Assault, or in Fall on their “Ascension of Europe Tour” with Messa, High Parasite and Lacrimas Profundere!
