Saturday at Tuska is packed from start to finish, but these are the six bands we’d make time for beyond the obvious names. 🎸
Balance Breach, Majestica, The Funeral Portrait, Kallomäki, Paleface Swiss and Omnivortex all earned a spot on our must-see list. Find out why in our latest Editorial Picks!
In about half an hour, the gates of Tuska 2026 are opening and in less than an hour the first riffs will take over the area. Besides the obvious big names, we picked out 6 shows we highly recommend you go see from festival openers Gatecreeper, to reggae infused Aurorawave and Skindred, the funky hardcore of Slope, alt-metallers Awake Again and party of the day drum n bass princess Nenerchy! See you there!
It’s been 10 years since our very first Tuska visit, and it has become a yearly event in our planning. With Tuska 2026 on the horizon, we took a look at the things that have us counting down the days until we’re back at Suvilahti. If you somehow still haven’t decided to get your tickets and join us there, hopefully we can convince you to go for it 🤘
Belgium may be small, but when it comes to summer festivals, it punches well above its weight. From heavy and alt fests Graspop and Alcatraz to the more commercial Pukkelpop and Rock Werchter, the concert series of Lokerse Feesten and Live Is Live to the small and cosy Rock Zottegem and Parkpop Oostkamp, we’ve selected eight Belgian summer events that are reason enough to visit our home country in 2026. Which one is already on your calendar?
It’s finally there! The week of the very first edition of Ankea Festival! If you’re still somehow on the fence on why you should get yourself a ticket and come join us in Tampere this weekend, here are 8 reasons that hopefully will convince you!
The final day of Steelfest Open Air always hits differently. Fatigue, devotion and one last descent into the underground. We picked out 5 performances again that we think you should check out for sure tomorrow on Day 3 in case your energy level isn’t high enough to go see everything, going from Dutch black metal icons Cirith Gorgor, the icy pressence of Imperial Crystalline Entombment, doom and gloom from Shape of Despair, a rare and most likely very emotionally charged performance by Lifelover to extreme metal innovators Tormentor to close the weekend! See you there!
Steelfest officially opens its doors in about 3 hours and let the madness start. Between your first beers and first riffs, take a moment to check our Day 2 must-see bands, going from a first show from industrial black supergroup Antihuman Industries, the return of ukrainian atmospheric black outfit Severoth, the live madness of Concrete Winds, a nightmare-fueled Akhlys and as closer a now already legendary show by underground icons Beherit! Tomorrow will be massive!
Less than 24 hours until Steelfest Open Air begins. First beers, first distortion, first chaos. With a bunch of excellent acts throughout the whole weekend, we like to highlight a handful of performances for every festival day you really shouldn’t miss. With on day 1 festival openers Evil Angel, the return of US black metal duo FIN, a once-in-a-lifetime 40th anniversary show from war metal icons Holocausto, old school Enthroned music with Sabathan and an absolutely relentless end of the day through Revenge — five very different ways to properly start a weekend of underground madness. If you’re going, what are you looking forward to?
It’s looking like Steelfest is going to sell out this year, but if you’re still somehow on the fence if you should go next week or not, here are some solid reasons why you should make the effort this year… If you’re going, why is Steelfest THE event you’re investing your time and money in?
