At Tuska 2025, one of the local acts on the KVLT Stage on the last day was The Vantages. Since they have been making quite the name for themselves in the local underground scene, it was about time for us to have a chat with them about their show there, their music, future and what they hope to achieve in the future!
We sat down with Henkka, guitarist and vocalist of the Finnish heavy metal band Tyrantti, to not only talk about their Tuska show and latest music, but to dive into their upcoming ‘Lihaa mattoon!’ event on July 12 in Helsinki where they are collaborating with FCF Wrestling to put together a highly entertaining evening filled with wrestling and heavy metal!
At Tuska this year, we sat down with Jemina and Henri from the Finnish dark folk act Noiduin to talk about how they channel their own country’s folklore, pagan history and ancestors in their music and performances, how tricky it can be to work with traditional, self-build instruments and how they hope people can connect with something deep inside themselves when listening to their music.
Shortly before they released their new album ‘The Ugly Side of Me’ via Napalm Records some months ago, we had a call with Diamond from Tetrarch to chat about the new music, how it felt to do proper vocals in one of the tracks, some pinch-me moments they experienced recently and the very first tour in Europe, which also brings them to our own venue Asgaard Gentbrugge tonight! If you can, don’t miss out because they promise to kill it live!
Wednesday 13 is celebrating the release of this 10th studio album, ‘Mid Death Crisis’, out this Friday April 25th via Napalm Records. We had the privilege of sitting down via Zoom with Duke of Spook himself to chat about the new album and going back to the roots of the horror punk style of the good old early 2000s…
We had a chat with Tomi from Ginger Evil about their self-titled debut album, released with Frontiers Music, and how the songs they’ve made have already gotten them to places and people he never would have expected! Tonight they’re having their official release show in Helsinki, don’t miss out if you’re in the neighborhood!
We had a chat with Mr. Lordi about Lordi’s new album ‘Limited Deadition’ (out with Reigning Phoenix Music) and his collecting and fandom of 80s toys, figurines, WWE, TV shows & movies!
At Alcatraz last year, we met up with Timo, drummer of Temptations for the Weak after their show opening up the Swamp stage that day and talked about the festival and their music!
We sat down with Balance Breach to talk about their new album ‘Save Our Souls’ (out on Out of Line Music March 7th) and how proud they are on what their sound is like in 2025, having amped up everything!
Last year, we met up with the mysterious and intriguing Finnish duo Rabbit Cult, who started a new chapter in their musical journey and told us all about their new path forging cool music blending Finnish with kawaii and alternative rock and metal into a unique and sometimes contradicting mixture.
Catch them on the Nordic Metal Cruise in a couple of weeks!
