Interview: Midnight Force
On Friday, 12 May 2023, everyone who can make it in terms of time and organisation should drop by the Helvete in Oberhausen. Find out why in the following interview with Ansgar, guitarist of Midnight Force and head of From Beyond Events. André: Hi Ansgar, next Friday there will be a fantastic concert evening at […]
Interview: Kat Gillham (Nine Altars / Thronehammer)
As most of you know, there is a circle of bands that we – and let’s be honest about this – have grown particularly attached to over the years. One of them is without question Thronehammer, who Aidan and I were able to see live together twice last year. Against this background, we were of […]
Interview: Æternia
English version below Es ist immer wieder schön, wenn neue Bands quasi aus dem Nichts auf der Bildfläche erscheinen, um einen gleich mit ihrem ersten Release komplett zu begeistern. Dies ist vor einigen Wochen Æternia aus Siegen gelungen – ihre Debüt-EP The Quest gehört meiner Meinung nach zum Besten, was in diesem Jahr in unserem […]
Æternia – The Quest
Release: 20/07/2022 This year, as we have written about elsewhere frequently, has seen the release of many excellent EPs. And fortunately, the year 2022 has even more to offer. If you don’t believe that, you only have to take 18 minutes to listen to The Quest by the German band Æternia. You can do that, […]
B.S.T. – Herbst
Release: 21/09/2022 B.S.T. from Hamburg are certainly no unknowns in the German doom scene: No wonder, the band was already founded in 1994 and their first EP Vier + 2 was released in 2000. If you look at the quartet’s output as a whole, you quickly realise that B.S.T. took quite a long time to […]
Review: Elusive God – Trapped in a Future Unknown
Release: 20/05/2022 If you want to put together a doom festival at the moment that features the most exciting newcomer bands of today, you have to look towards Croatia: Thanks to Elusive God, this Balkan gem is playing in the top league of this genre. If you don’t know the band yet, you should read […]
Best of 2021: EPs
Today we present you our third “Best of 2021 list“: This time we focus on EPs. Admittedly, not so many EPs have been released this year that could really thrill us. Therefore we limit ourselves to a sixpack. But every record that shows up here is REALLY awesome! Aidan’s Sixpack 1. Knight’s Oath – s/t […]
Review: Sorcerer – Reverence
Release: 10/12/2021 English version below Heute vor vier Jahren starb mit Warrel Dane (Sanctuary, Nevermore) ein Ausnahmesänger, der in unserer Szene eine nicht zu schließende Lücke hinterlassen hat. Mein Kollege und Freund Aidan hat im letzten Jahr auf unserem Blog mit einem sehr emotionalen Beitrag an dessen dritten Todestag erinnert. Mancher mag sich nun fragen: […]
Live Report: Riddle of Steel (Part II)
Text: André, Pics & Videos: Aidan English version below Die vierte Ausgabe des Riddle of Steels war aus mehreren Gründen eine rundum gelungene Veranstaltung: Wie im ersten Teil unseres Berichtes bereits dargelegt, ist hier in insbesondere die tolle, familiäre Atmosphäre im Knubbel anzuführen. Wem dort nicht das Herz aufgeht, ist nicht mehr zu helfen… Hervorzuheben […]
