Report: SATYRICON Nemesis Divina 20th anniversary show @ Rockefeller, Oslo

Some while we travelled to Oslo, Norway, to witness a special event at this big venue called Rockefeller, event that sounded to us like a must see since the first time we heard the news about it last year, the decision was made and finally we were there to see SATYRICON performing their milestone “Nemesis [...]

Report: BARONESS + CORREIA @ Paradise Garage, Lisbon

The line was quite long when we first approached Paradise Garage and it was easy to confirm what we already suspected: inside, a jam-packed venue would be waiting for the long awaited Baroness. But before them, we had CORREIA and their psych-infused rock. It was only their second time on stage but don’t let that [...]

Report: NECROS CHRISTOS + LUX FERRE + INFRA @ Side B, Benavente

In a weekend with an other event claiming the spotlights of the media attention, we kept faithful to our convictions and drove to Benavente for a night where an appealing line-up was ahead of us. INFRA were the ones with opening credits and started not much after the scheduled hour. They occupy an unparallel seat [...]

Report: Bad Guys @ Musicbox

  After the boys had been back in town last Friday 13th it was time for the crooks to come pay us visit. Straight form the London sludge scene, the guys simply made their hallmark by making a scene on their double-neck guitar duo. That and of course, the rasputinean reincarnation w/ a voice straight-out-of-hell, [...]

Great evening in Paradise Garage for the long waited return of Ensiferum to Portugal. Invited to the show were Cruz de Ferro, classic heavy metal singed in Portuguese, proudly has the band said.

Report: Leprous + Sphere + Rendezvous Point @ RCA Club

On October 8th the RCA Club in Lisbon received a true Norwegian night. The 3 bands that played all shared more than their nationality… they shared intricate and highly technical music too. Rendezvous Point opened up the series of concerts. This band seemed a bit unknown to most of the people, so maybe it felt [...]

Report: Venom Inc. + Vader + Divine Chaos + Witches + Filii Nigrantium Infernalium + Midnight Priest @ RCA Club

Legendary bands are not something you can find in every corner. They are special, they are ground breaking, charismatic, they achieve what others only dare to dream of. They are true leaders, not followers but still humble and true to themselves. We believe it’s fair to state that Venom fits into this definition and so [...]
