Today we would like to share with you our first Best of 2022 list. We start with our best live moments – more precisely with our 3 favourite festivals of the year and our 3 favourite concerts (We cheated a bit here, sorry). Basically, it is almost impossible to make a selection, because we have […]
Release: 29/07/2022 If you have been reading our blog for the last two years, you will certainly have come across the name Oath. Nevertheless, a short explanation at this point: It is a one-man-project from Scotland, behind which Steven Waddell can be found. Stylistically, we’re dealing with classic heavy metal, more specifically a nod to […]
Release: 30/09/2022 If I were to draw a life motto out of the music accompanying me through this journey called life, it would probably be the verse “Searching for a distant chilhood dream“ taken from the song “On the Edge of Twilight“ from Dark Forest’s unexcelled fourth album Beyond the Veil. Having lived on the […]
Release: 19/08/2022 As you know, Seven Sisters have a place of honour in the Epic Metal Blog Hall of Fame. If you are wondering why this is so, you should simply read our detailed discography check. Just last year I gave Shadow of a Fallen Star Pt. I full marks – and I would still […]
Text: André, Pics & Videos: Aidan Even in your middle age, you can still get to know new concert venues in the Ruhr region that appeal to you right away. The rather alternative, cosy youth and cultural centre Emscherdamm is not located in the centre of Oberhausen, but even late at night this is not […]
It’s about time to continue our section Discography Check, which we started a year ago. We kick off with a band that means a lot to us: Seven Sisters. With this little feature, the Epic Metal Blog also thanks these artists for their just completed European tour, where they absolutely captivated many fans. We hope you […]
Text: André (in cooperation with Aidan); concert pics & videos: Aidan There are concert evenings that one particularly looks forward to. Without a doubt, 7 May 2022 was one of those days, as Gravety and Seven Sisters, two of our favourite bands, hit the stage at the Helvete in Oberhausen. The cherry on top of […]
English version below Am Samstag steht im Helvete ein ganz besonderer Konzertabend auf dem Programm: Mit Riot City, Seven Sisters und Gravety beehren gleich drei herausragende, junge Bands den Pott. Daher haben wir es uns natürlich nicht nehmen lassen, unseren guten Kumpel Kevin, Sänger bei Gravety, vor diesem großen, epischen Ereignis, ausgerichtet von From Beyond […]
Release: 04/02/2022 If you look at the band name, the cover art and the song titles, you know: Knight’s Oath fit perfectly on the Epic Metal Blog. And – I anticipate – musically we also get our money’s worth. Even if I have something to complain about – but more about that in a moment. […]
English version below Ein Kollege aus dem Deaf Forever Forum brachte es am zurückliegenden Wochenende in der Posthalle auf den Punkt: „Ein Festival besteht für mich zu 50% aus Musik und zu 50% aus Leute treffen“.
