SÖLAR @ Vagos Metal Fest, 2022/07/28

This gallery contains 45 photos.

Original Portuguese version on World Of Metal. I’ve got a pretty open mind when it comes to modern sounds and mixing genres, so I appreciated Laurus’ enterprise of bringing something “different” in the form of Madrid-based ETERNAL PSYCHO. But the high … Continue reading

This gallery contains 42 photos.

Original Portuguese version on World Of Metal. Another cancellation, this time on Belgian HUMAN VIVISECTION part, brought NIHILITY on board at the last minute – so last that guitarist Afonso Gomes couldn’t make it, as he already had other plans. “Prophecy … Continue reading
