INFRAKTOR @ Blindagem Metal Fest, 2017/04/29

This gallery contains 54 photos.

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. First band getting on stage was INFRAKTOR, “ferocious thrash” straight out of Escapães. It was the only national band on the bill and made it right by their country – I used the quote marks … Continue reading

SOTZ’ @ Bulldozer Fest, 2016/05/27

This gallery contains 45 photos.

Bulldozer Fest is a 2-day underground festival that this year took place at my dear Canecas Bar. I attended both days, but on the second one I was a mere “civilian”, enjoying a few drinks in the company of my … Continue reading

KILLIMANJARO @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/24

Last band of the last day – and what a finale. One always expects the biggest riots in metal gigs, but then comes KILLIMANJARO and your opinion changes: heavy rock can get pretty raw as well. Hell, there were people … Continue reading

CATACOMBE @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/24

In a more post-rock approach, CATACOMBE stormed the stage and enthralled the crowd in a heavy, dark embrace. A very emotional gig, as only this kind of good band can do. http://www.facebook.com/catacombeband/

THE BLACK WIZARDS @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/24

Third and last day of Canecas Fest, and once again I missed the first band, THE BLACK ZEBRA – who apparently were the big surprise of the festival. But I arrived just in time to see THE BLACK WIZARDS get … Continue reading

MISS LAVA @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/23

This gallery contains 51 photos.

The headliners of the second day were stoner rockstars MISS LAVA. The show got delayed due to technical problems and they were final over, singer Johnny Lee joked, blaming a cheap chain store where the musicians – not the gear – … Continue reading

STONE DEAD @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/23

This gallery contains 42 photos.

STONE DEAD‘s sound is fuzzier, brisker. Excellent stage presence too. Singer João Branco drank throughout the gig and wasn’t exactly sober towards the end, making him introduce the last song three times – and I’m still not sure if he … Continue reading

ASTRODOME @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/23

Both days of the rest of the festival were a treat for stoner/psychedelic rock lovers. First band was ASIMOV, which I missed because the friends I rode along with don’t have a close relationship with schedules… So when we arrived, … Continue reading

HILLS HAVE EYES @ Canecas Fest, 2016/04/22

This gallery contains 51 photos.

I’ve seen my fair share of HILLS HAVE EYES gigs and all of them have been incredible, but I believe this one managed to top all the others. I was more or less expecting so: Canecas is that one place where … Continue reading
