At the end of December, we managed to catch the shows of Shereign, Dirt and of course Oceanhoarse at the second edition of Hoarsefest at On The Rocks in Helsinki!

Blind Channel’s biggest show to date was a visual spectacle and everything they’ve worked towards for all these years! With support from Arttu Lindeman, it was a great way to wrap up an amazing year.

A look back at the energetic shows from Normandie, Balance Breach and Delta Enigma at On The Rocks back in December!

One from the archives… back in October we attended to the “Come To Latin America” showcase where competition winner Where’s My Bible and one of the runner ups Luna Kills brought us a night of some good live music at On The Rocks in Helsinki, showing yet again what kind of goodies Finland has to offer musically!

On a cold day in October, Volbeat came to warm us up with their hard rock and heavy metal circus at the Nokia Arena in Tampere, Finland. With them, they had the UK ragga metallers Skindred and the US rockers of Bad Wolves, and we saw it was good!

Greta Van Fleet really brought the love and a serious rocking out to the County War Memorial Coliseum in Ft. Wayne, Indiana with the help of Houndmouth and Robert Finley!

Pictures of a night of good old rocking with the Shiraz Lane boys at the release show of their latest album, with The Cruel Intentions and Luna Kills joining in on the fun!

The Mission brought The Crescent York to a steaming point with their double set, almost reducing our photographer to a puddle of sweat. Luckily before succumbing under the heat he managed to take a few snapshots of the memorable night!

Pictures of the second day of Knotfest Finland that topped everything of the day before on all levels with kings of metal Slipknot, joined by bands like Shiraz Lane, Tesseract, Stoned Statues, Cradle of Filth, Medeia, Bring Me The Horizon, and Moon Shot!
