Gig Reports
Tonight would be a night of cavernous, rotten old school death metal. Dark, meaty and atmospheric. The scene is the small stage at DVG Club in Kortrijk where we just witnessed Samael play the larger stage two days earlier. First we headed out to the murky swamps, I mean lakes of Finland.

Way back in the nineties Samael was the first black metal band I ever saw, although technically by that time, which was around the release of the ‘Passage’ album the Swiss band had already departed from that style, of course. Still, their performance left a lasting impression on me as the band unleashed their industrial anthems in the pouring rain on the main stage of the second edition of Graspop. So here we are now almost thirty years later with Samael still around and about to release a new record. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

Northlane – an Australian metalcore act with industrial and electronic elements finally returned to Finland after almost 7 long years and their return was very welcomed. Northlane has always been a very strong live act and this was no exception – they were better and stronger than ever!
They were supported by Balance Breach – a Finnish metalcore group that has been together for over 10 years. They have supported some big-name acts, toured internationally, and played at festivals both in Finland and abroad. This was my first time seeing them perform at a club gig.

It’s that time of year again! Cause let’s be honest, I go and watch The Offspring almost every year since they are my favorite band. This time, they brought Simple Plan with them on their “Supercharged worldwide in ’25 tour”. Lets go and see the show!

Indica played a special acoustic show at Tampere’s G Livelab on Friday the 19th of December. Together with Erno Laitinen and Jarkko “Jakke” Saarinen they delivered a fun show, that has left me wanting more.

A queue that stretched down the entire street, everyone wearing a battle jacket or T-shirt from their favorite band. It was clear to see that many people were eager to arrive on time for the well-known Mechelen band Psychonaut. This venue showed that Belgian post-metal continues to grow and that we can be proud of our country, its music, and its fans.

The second night of Gojira’s “France Arena Tour” arrived in Lille with the unstoppable momentum of a band still early in their tour—and already performing at full throttle. The Zénith de Lille was packed to its rafters for one of the first sold-out shows of the tour, radiating the unmistakable hum of anticipation that only Gojira can command on home soil.
