DANKO JONES was touring Europe to support their 12th studio long player ‘Leo Rising’. A triumphant journey through the venues of the continent, and most places have been sold out. This was true for the Mannheim gig as well, a fully packed concert hall and eagerly anticipating crowd were the perfect ingredients for a memorable night and the classic rock of support Tuk Smith and The Restless Hearts was a perfect tastemaker to get things going!
BTL, previously known as beyond the labyrinth have a new album out since they reinvented themselves: ‘The Game’, and came to present the new chapter with a show at The Crossover Music Pub in Ghent, Belgium. Support came from Tannen Baines Tree.

Support came from their countrymates of Grace Cummings.

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!

Interviews
Ahead of their European shows and the release of their latest, and fifth, album ‘Vol. 5’, we sat down with Tommi and Topi from Finnish rock band The Empire Strikes to talk evolution, gear they haven’t touched in a decade, humour as survival, and the joy of making music that simply feels like them.

Album Reviews
If you’ve ever asked “Who the f** is Danko Jones?”, their 12th album answers loud and clear. ‘Leo Rising’ brings back the swagger, the attitude, and the punch. Classic Danko: raw, catchy, dirty rock ’n’ roll with zero apologies. Out next week Friday November 21st via Perception!
