BASALTO @ Hard Club, 2018/09/21

Posted on June 16, 2019 by Pieni

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

Posted on June 8, 2019 by Pieni

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 →

Monasterium Fest @ Mosteiro de Ferreira, 2018/09/15

Posted on June 1, 2019 by Pieni

I only wanted to see WEB, but since they got the 4th slot, I took a few shots of the previous acts. The traditional heavy metal of LYZZÄRD: http://www.facebook.com/lyzzardofficial/ The (awful) power/symphonic metal of WATERLAND: http://www.facebook.com/WATERLAND.metalband/ And the black metal … Continue reading →

R.A.M.P. @ Casainhos Fest, 2018/09/01

Posted on May 26, 2019 by Pieni

As I like R.A.M.P. way more than BIZARRA, and this was my first opportunity to finally see the current line-up, I lingered longer up front.  I thought my blurry vision was due to weariness but after all it was just … Continue reading →

BIZARRA LOCOMOTIVA @ Casainhos Fest, 2018/09/01

Posted on May 22, 2019 by Pieni

A feeling of déjà vu from two years before (see here) made me think this time we wouldn’t be so lucky and BIZARRA LOCOMOTIVA would REALLY cancel their show. Plus, I was having so much fun with a bunch of friends … Continue reading →

HEAVENWOOD @ Casainhos Fest, 2018/09/01

Posted on May 19, 2019 by Pieni

HEAVENWOOD are known to change their line-up often, so that both bassist André and drummer Sinatra were on their way out after this show came as no surprise. Also, as Ernesto seems to be back in the country for good, … Continue reading →

This gallery contains 57 photos.

Here it is, the other of “my” bands that made me travel all those miles. It was probably the HILLS HAVE EYES show with the worst sound that I’ve attended so far, but the attitude was all there.  http://www.facebook.com/hillshaveeyes/ And … Continue reading →

VIRALATA @ Casainhos Fest, 2018/09/01

Posted on May 14, 2019 by Pieni

Some technical problems delayed VIRALATA‘s show a bit and put singer Ulisses in a bad mood at first, but then things were sorted out and their usual punk-fun posture infected everyone. Always a pleasure to see these guys. http://www.facebook.com/viralatapunkrock/
