Interviews

Fabienne Erni opens the gates to her own universe. In our interview, she talks about independence, invented languages, vocal experimentation, and why her debut solo album ‘Starveil’ is the start of something potentially big.

Three months after the album release, we caught up with Johannes Eckerström again, the third time in about half a year now. We talk about their touring since we last met, from punk rock chaos on a Caribbean cruise to butchering his first live piano chorus in front of 8,000 people and how thankful he is how much people still care about Avatar.

We sat down with Morgan (vocals) of Blackwater Drowning to talk a more focused identity on new album ‘Obscure Sorrows’ and evolving all the time, self-criticism, melody vs heaviness, and the future of the band where Europe could maybe be next. Their new album is set for release next week’s Friday, don’t miss out!

Avalanche unleash debut album ‘Armed To The Teeth’ (out since Friday) — a no-frills Aussie hard rock statement — just as they hit Europe supporting Airbourne.

We caught up with Steven Campbell and Veronica “V” Campbell ahead of the album release and tour to talk working-class anthems, pub rock culture, and finally taking the leap overseas.

At Alcatraz 2025, Avatar’s Johannes Eckerström opened up about the band’s next chapter: a new album that was not to be named (it has a name, but he was being a “good boy” in not unveiling the title), their fastest song in 15 years, and why independent festivals (like the one we were at) keep metal’s future alive.

We had a call with Ruben (guitars) and Frederik (bass) of the Belgian modern thrash band Primal Creation to talk about their latest single, the move of Frederik from roadie to active member of the band as the bassist and especially about playing at this year’s Alcatraz Festival opening La Morgue this Saturday!

We caught up with Signs of Algorithm’s frontman Frederick to talk about their latest album ‘Sunchaser’, the band’s musical and his vocal evolution, and why their Alcatraz Festival show is a dream come true.

We sat down with SKYND at Tuska about a month ago and had a talk about how they’ve been turning true crime into art, empathy, and community.

We sat down with Henkka, guitarist and vocalist of the Finnish heavy metal band Tyrantti, to not only talk about their Tuska show and latest music, but to dive into their upcoming ‘Lihaa mattoon!’ event on July 12 in Helsinki where they are collaborating with FCF Wrestling to put together a highly entertaining evening filled with wrestling and heavy metal!

At Tuska this year, we sat down with Jemina and Henri from the Finnish dark folk act Noiduin to talk about how they channel their own country’s folklore, pagan history and ancestors in their music and performances, how tricky it can be to work with traditional, self-build instruments and how they hope people can connect with something deep inside themselves when listening to their music.
