DEF LEPPARD @ Palacio Vistalegre, 2013/06/26

Posted on July 11, 2013 by Pieni

DEF LEPPARD was one of the first rock bands I got into (the half dozen of vinyls I own include “Adrenalize”) but never had the chance to see live. And to be honest, when I “accidentally” saw MAN RAZE (Phil … Continue reading →

EUROPE @ Palacio Vistalegre, 2013/06/26

Posted on July 6, 2013 by Pieni

Apparently this gig was part of the “Bag Of Bones Tour 2013”, but only the first two songs of the set belonged to that album – “Riches To Rags” and “Firefox”. After that it was a ride down classics avenue … Continue reading →

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. » After The End Of Grace were forced to withdraw their presence, Bult stepped in with their “progressive metal”. In quotes because that’s how they label themselves, although if you’d asked me, I’d say they play death metal with a … Continue reading →

Posted on June 24, 2013 by Pieni

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. » Crunge, who “don’t play grunge” as singer Mathias stated, don’t have a full-length album yet to promote, but a couple of EPs do the trick perfectly – “Desolate” (2011) and “Throwdown” (2012). The band explores a side of rock totally different from Librah – the … Continue reading →
