Friday the thirteenth might not be the ideal time to go sailing the seven seas, but nevertheless we cried ahoy and steered our schooner towards the shores of Antwerp to meet up with Captain Ahab and his mateys.

It has been a while since Sonata Arctica has played a regular gig in Finland. Their last Finnish tour only consisted of acoustic songs and a faster-paced gig, apart from festival appearances, has been sorely missed, at least for me. So when this tour was announced, I was quite happy and waiting with great anticipation. For this event they brought along some interesting and diverse support acts, Reckless Love and Luna Kills.

Who doesn’t know SHINING from Norway, the BlackJazz pioneers. Well a lot of people apparently and not to confuse with equally named Shining, the black metal ensemble from Sweden. In contrary, their Norwegians counterparts bring us BlackJazz which isn’t exactly a style for the faint-hearted. It consists of very technical parts with grungy voices, where there’s a lot of place for organised chaos. They describe themselves more as an extreme avant-garde metal band. This evening in the Kafka was a part of small celebration tour of the ‘BlackJazz’ album.

With temperatures approaching those found in Death Valley, the GRIMM Rider rode out once again. This time to the grassy fields of Antwerp, bluegrass fields that is. There I was in good company with The Dead South and the Tejon Street Corner Thieves.

Always an absolute pleasure to catch Go_A on a stage. Ever since their stint at Eurovision, the world has been turned onto their highly engaging mix of traditional folk and electronic music and it seems that this Ukranian outfit has conquered a special place in the hearts of many Finnish people. So here they are yet again, ready to play a show at Coolhead brewery for one of the Coolhead Live concert series…

Last Friday, Lost Society and Amorphis gave their fans a little preview of what to expect on the upcoming ‘Halo‘ European Tour, with their show at Logomo’s Terassikesä in Turku, Finland. This was my first time at Logomo, so I don’t know how crowed it usually gets, but it seemed pretty full to me, especially for not being sold out.

Logomo’s summer terrace is located right next to Turku’s main train station, which makes it very convenient to get to. To enter the terrace you have to walk through a small part of an art gallery, which is a bit odd, but also kinda cool. The physical well-being of the fans was very well taken care of, as there were several food and bar options to choose from.

So let dive right in.

Iron Maiden and Belgium have a long-standing love story and that is most apparent when they visit Graspop Metal Meeting every two to three years. And when they did last year, it was a blast! In my humble opinion, even surpassing the famous Rock in Rio concert. So, how did they fare, laying in a second tour already a year later and selling out one of the largest music arena’s in Europe at the Sportpaleis venue in Antwerp?
