The Belgian giants of post-metal, AMENRA, are gracing Europe’s stages with a tour in 2025. For over 20 years, the Belgians have unleashed incredible live experiences with their massive stage presence and a furious sonic tornado. The tour kick-off in Stuttgart was no exception. A night with overwhelming sound intensity took place, accompanied by YEAR OF THE COBRA, a project from their recently added new bassist Amy Tung Barrysmith.
At the end of March it was time for a fantastic rock and metal opera in Stuttgart’s Schleyerhalle, Tobias Sammet’s multi musician project Avantasia held court. A fantasy stage layout built the base for a 3-hour spectacle that was packed with a long line of guest vocalists.
The German alternative metal band ENEMY INSIDE is on the road to promote their latest studio album, ‘Venom’, out via Reigning Phoenix Music.

One of the 18 gigs took place in Stuttgart, in the cosy club atmosphere of ‘Im Wizemann Studio’.
THUNDERMOTHER’s ‘Dirty & Divine Tour 2025’ brought together an almost 100% female rock night. Together with COBRA SPELL and VULVARINE a great night of classic heavy and hard rock is traveling around Europe and we got to see them in Stuttgart on the first leg of the tour. The tour will go on with the second leg, kicking off on 21 March 2025. Get your tix soon, it might sell out fast.
20 years of HÄMATOM and an anniversary album are good reasons for the band to go on a ’20 Jahre Für Euch’ tour through Germany and celebrate German metal. With them as support are the Berlin rockers from ENGST, who impressed with their mix of rock, punk, and a pinch of pop. The openers in Stuttgart were the punk rockers from FOCUS.
If you didn’t choose to attend WITHIN TEMPTATION’s ‘Bleed Out Tour 2024’ stop in the Porsche Arena on the 3rd of December in Stuttgart and its surroundings, you missed out! Their show was a visual event of its own that ranges in the absolute top without a doubt. Support acts BLIND8 (Ukraine) and ANNISOKAY (Germany) completed the line-up to make it an outstanding concert highlight!
This year, all Thrash Metal fans in Europe received a special treat, an early Christmas present: KREATOR & ANTHRAX feat. TESTAMENT. All three bands were in a class of their own that evening – there was no support, only headliners. This evening will be remembered by all thrashers for a long time.
40 years – what an anniversary for the Brazilian metal icons SEPULTURA. At the same time, it’s a ’40 Years Farewell Tour – Celebrating Life Through Death’. With 15 albums to their name, puts on a great show, supported by JESUS PIECE, OBITUARY and JINJER. What a goodbye for a legendary band, MHP Arena in Ludwigsburg, Germany literally boiled over!
With their 5th album ‘Attracted To Danger’, THE NEW ROSES are currently on tour in Europe. With MOONSHOT from Finland as the support act, the German rockers are thrilling the masses. At their gig in Stuttgart, we had the pleasure of witnessing this amazing rock performance.
