This gallery contains 63 photos.

Original Portuguese version on World Of Metal. My first concert without restrictions. I still wore my mask but for mere precaution – it wasn’t mandatory anymore. And even if I’ve never been a big fan of mosh pits, it felt … Continue reading

HYPOCRISY’s “Worship”

Originally written for Valkyrian Music. I was sure “End Of Disclosure” had been released in 2013 but when doing the math… I had to double-check on Google, as it seemed surreal that it took eight years for HYPOCRISY to come up with something new. … Continue reading

Revisited: THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA’s “Aeromantic II”

Originally written for Valkyrian Music. I’m not sure if an “Aeromantic II” was in order when the first one came out, but it seems like the latter’s follow-up wasn’t supposed to be released so early: forced to cancel the “Aeromantic” tour due to the … Continue reading

Revisited: SEPULTURA’s “The Mediator Between Head And Hands Must Be The Heart”

Originally written for Valkyrian Music. I haven’t followed SEPULTURA very closely in a long while (in fact, I’ve never done it “closely”, but I paid some attention between “Beneath The Remains” and “Roots”), but I’ve heard enough to be able to say that their 13th studio … Continue reading

Revisited: LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT @ Dead Hour Fest, 2007/11/10

Legendary goth/darkwave/industrial LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT were headlining this new fest (actually, I believe it was the only edition of it, but can’t tell for sure) and I couldn’t miss it. Of course I was still walking with the aid of … Continue reading

Revisited: NILE @ Caos Emergente, 2008/09/13

13 years seems a lot longer nowadays – the lack of gigs caused by the pandemic make the ones we saw right before it feel like they happened a lifetime ago, let alone the ones we attended back in 2008… … Continue reading

Original Portuguese version on World Of Metal. Second round of GODARK‘s release party for “Forward We March” at Metalpoint. The first date was sold out and this second one followed suit – I believe who didn’t understand the reason for two … Continue reading

PHASE TRANSITION @ Metalpoint, 2021/07/17

This gallery contains 42 photos.

Original Portuguese version on World Of Metal. Still placing their bets on the diversity our underground has to offer, GODARK invited another band of a different genre than theirs – this time it was progressive metal, spiced up here and … Continue reading
