After having brought an impression of the first day of TollRock Festival, here are the impressions for day 2 from our photographer with Guano Apes, Thundermother, and Dog Eat Dog!

One of our photographers went to the smaller, but wonderful festival TollRock in Germany a couple of weeks ago and was so kind to share some of his pictures with us of day 1 with Mötorblast, Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons and Völkerball.

Metfest 2023 at the Tollwood area in Munich, Germany… a celebration with superheroes, warriors, good music and of course mead, with Feuerschwanz, Fiddler’s Green, Warkings and Grailknights!

Polish metal icons BEHEMOTH! are roaming through Europe with their ‘Deathless Summer Tour 2023’ and struck down at Substage in Karlsruhe, Germany with the support of Hypocrisy and SpiritWorld. A gorgeous night of some of the best metal the world has to offer right now, and extreme temperatures despite no pyro being used.

Scorpions and Thundermother rocked Stuttgart during their stop on the ‘Rock Believer World Tour 2022/2023’. First class lights, sounds, and coverage of 50+ years of rock and song history from the Scorpions were exciting a large audience.


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."
