HEAD:STONED @ XX HardMetalFest, 2014/01/11

This gallery contains 63 photos.

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. Somewhere between prog and thrash, Head:Stoned followed up.  They’ve been around for more than 7 years now and I believe they’ve grown quite a lot, both musical and performance-wise.

DEAD MEAT @ XX HardMetalFest, 2014/01/11

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. Brutal death/grind-gore Dead Meat have been around for 20 years… literally. Studio is not their thing, the stage is.

ANTIVOID @ Metalpoint, 2013/11/30

EQUALEFT @ Metalpoint, 2013/11/30

First EQUALEFT gig in a long while, as they’ve been reclusive while recording their first full-length. Sadly, Miguel was sick (flu) and his voice wasn’t at 100% – nor did he jump so much, as it’s his usual – but … Continue reading →
