Infected Rain came back to Belgium a second time this year on their “Heyday tour 2023”, the place to be was DVG Club in Kortrijk, accompanied by warm up act All Hail the Yeti!

Of course, we were present again at Alcatraz Festival, trying to see as many of the awesome bands as possible. But seeing so many people having the times of their lives pulled our cameras away from the bands regularly, capturing the great community and atmosphere you could find all over the place!

The last day of a long and exhausting weekend of great music and atmosphere was all about the Belgian music scene at La Morgue with Aeveris, Brutal Sphincter, Hexa Mera, Mantah and Reject The Sickness!
