Brymirs album release show at Tavastia was one sweaty pleasure, full of surprises and even though it was on a Wednesday with a decent sized crowd! Overall, a really pleasant night with a band that continues to rise and soar!
Fans of the Finnish band Sturm und Drang were in for a treat at Tampereen Ylioppilasteatteri, when Jeppe Welroos and André Linman played some of their best known songs in an intimate acoustic set. We really enjoyed finally being able to listen to these songs live again.
Punk rock fans were spoiled on a Saturday a couple of weeks ago when the absolute legends of hardcore punk GBH turned On The Rocks in Helsinki into a complete chaos of old school punks and new school punks dancing and partying like there’s no tomorrow. An event by Loose Mind Productions and support from Broken Trend and Likaiset Pikkarit.
YUNGBLUD at Kulttuuritalo Helsinki on his “Life on Mars Tour” was quite the rock ‘n’ roll experience. People saying that rock is dead, clearly haven’t seen this guy rockin’ the stage! With support from Boy Bleach, it was an absolutely memorable night!
