Thrash/heavy metal Juggernauts Megadeth returns with their 16th album ‘The Sick, the Dying, and the Dead!’. Arguably his strongest and heaviest record since ‘Countdown to Extinction’, Dave Mustaine’s perceptive songwriting on the new album never strays from the old-school roots of thrash metal. Out on Universal Music Group.
After many years of absence, the Swedish proggers of Evergrey came to present not 1, but 2 brand new full-length albums at Biebob in Belgium with support from Fractal Universe and Virtual Symmetry. And we saw that it was good…
Steelchaos is back! If that is not reason enough to get yourself a ticket still, here are 5 reasons why you should still consider to go this weekend, including the exclusive Finland “Black Metal” 40 years anniversary show of Venom Inc.!
Ultima Ratio Fest has been bringing a proper collection of metal bands around Europe with Moonspell, Insomnium, Borknagar, Wolfheart and Hinayana. Sadly it seemed the crowd was mostly asleep at this stop at Backstage Munich, regardless some great metal music was played this night!
Amon Amarth is always a spectacle on a stage. Add to that the US metallers Machine Head that finally managed to get to Helsinki and the supergroup The Halo Effect and you know that the night was going to be a good one!
Amon Amarth and Machine Head came, saw and delivered! The ‘Vikings & Lionhearts tour’ made a stop in Helsinki, Finland and set the room on fire, quite literally… Support came from Swedish melodeath supergroup The Halo Effect.
Obscura proved yet again at Backstage Munich that metal can be complex and brutal at the same time with a bombshell of a show. Support came from Disillusion and Persefone.
After 7 long years, the Swedish prog masters Soen were back in Belgium with an exciting show at Trix in Antwerp, Belgium. Support came from the French outfit Lizzard and the Finnish heavy metallers Oceanhoarse!
A while back, Bring Me The Horizon set fire to the Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Georgia with the help of the varied support with Knocked Loose, Grandson and Siiickbrain!
We joined the celebrations at MaYaN’s 10th anniversary show in Effenaar Eindhoven featuring special guests throughout the show and a great opening show by Off The Cross!
