Not sure how to accurately label OUIJAH‘s kind of metal – which is a good thing, in my opinion – as they take on hints of several subgenres. At first I thought someone skipped a note here and there, but … Continue reading

WICKED @ Metalpoint, 2018/11/10

Thrashers WICKED were the first band invited for THE RANSACK‘s release party of “Decadence”. I don’t think they have anything released themselves – at least I couldn’t find any – but they presented 8 neat songs which will probably be … Continue reading

EQUALEFT @ Kraken, 2018/10/06

The premiere of Heavy Metal Portugal – O Documentário included an after-party gig with BLAME ZEUS and EQUALEFT. The venue was cozy – waaaay too cozy to get proper shots, so I just took a few of my boys (sorry, Sandra!). I’m still trying to … Continue reading

STATUS QUO @ Campo Pequeno, 2018/09/28

STATUS QUO has always been one of my mom’s favorite bands, so saying I’ve been listening to them since I was born isn’t a stretch. Nowadays it’s easy to attend concerts abroad, but for one reason or another we’d only … Continue reading

BASALTO @ Hard Club, 2018/09/21

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. Then came the 99%-instrumental BASALTO. In fact, the first I’d seen them, a few months prior, I’d say they were an instrumental act. But this time, on the first and last track, guitarist António Baptista growled something … Continue reading

AURA @ Hard Club, 2018/09/21

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. Post black metal AURA, promoting their debut EP “Hamartia”, which had been released in July. Aggressive, but bearing the somberness of a doom band, the mix works out extremely well, the four musicians really “into it” … Continue reading
