Kvelertak and Cancer Bats started quite the riot at Kulttuuritalo Helsinki some weeks ago!
When a legend like John Lydon comes to a venue near you with his almost as legendary band Public Image Ltd., you know you can’t miss out! And so did our photographer when they took over the stage at Ääniwalli in Helsinki with the support of local hardcore punk heroes Bob Malmström!
Right in the beginning of this month, Michael Monroe, Sami Yaffa, Nasty Suicide and Karl Rockfist showed what a true rock ‘n’ roll show is when Demolition 23. took over the legendary Tavastia in Helsinki for a fully sold out show. This night was the epitome of what a rock ‘n’ roll show should be, brought to us by true legends of the Finnish rock scene!
Last month, Circuit Breaker Bookings with All Out Productions brought grindcore juggernauts Full Of Hell all the way from US to a fully sold out On The Rocks. And with supporting acts Kuvotus and Dome Runner, this was by far one of the most intense nights we have witnessed of late. A night full of blood, sweat and broken glass, with constant moshpits and stagediving!
The Sonata Arctica “Arctic Storm Finland Tour 2023” has been a massive success, and we got to go to one of the first stops at Pakkahuone in Tampere. With them, they’re bringing the glam rock favorites Reckless Love and the energetic alternative rock/metal upstarts Luna Kills!
Awhile ago, the Finnish leg of the Wolfheart and Before the Dawn co-headline tour started, and with support of Brymir, we got a very nice night of Finnish melodeath at the not so crowded Pakkahuone in Tampere, organised by Master Events.
Our site is dedicated to everything rock and metal with a few sidesteps in music that appeals to the same music fans like synthwave, neo (pagan) folk, industrial,… But some of us do have a taste for music and art that goes beyond these limitations. Enter “GRIMM goes rogue”: where you’ll get a metalhead, punker, rocker,… who ventures into realms beyond their usual habitat with an open mind and give their honest opinion, views and experiences.
"A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open."
