This gallery contains 57 photos.

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. Another band that’s grown a lot since the first time I’ve seen them a couple of years ago is IN VEIN. Raising Legends has been doing a hell of a job managing them, getting them to play … Continue reading

INFRAKTOR @ Laurus Nobilis Music Famalicão, 2018/07/26

This gallery contains 69 photos.

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. But it was INFRAKTOR’s “ferocious metal” that got the most out of the crowd, proving the promoters right when they chose such a young band to headline the first day. Well, young as INFRAKTOR, who released … Continue reading

CRUZ DE FERRO @ Laurus Nobilis Music Famalicão, 2018/07/26

Originally posted on Valkyrian Music. CRUZ DE FERRO is Portuguese for “iron cross”, so that alone gives you an idea what kind of metal they play and what they sing about – yep, traditional heavy metal about Portuguese battles and history in … Continue reading

BOOBY TRAP @ Laurus Nobilis Music Famalicão, 2018/07/26

INFRAKTOR @ Tondela Rocks, 2018/04/14

This gallery contains 66 photos.

At the risk of sounding cocky, I’ll say that INFRAKTOR was the most awaited band of this year’s edition of Tondela Rocks: the other acts experienced a great void in front of the stage while that space filled up quickly … Continue reading

HILLS HAVE EYES @ River Stone, 2017/09/23

This gallery contains 81 photos.

September nights by the river is the furthest thing from warm, but when your favorite band is playing – especially on the drummer’s birthday – your concern about temperature is just as far. Given the huge backlog FRF has, I … Continue reading

COUGH @ Vagos Metal Fest, 2017/08/13

Original Portuguese version on Glam Magazine. For COUGH, though, the number of “survivors” was pretty low. Unlike MISS LAVA, their stoner merges with sludge and doom, not rock, and even if the nocturnal hours are the perfect match to their sound, … Continue reading

GORGUTS @ Vagos Metal Fest, 2017/08/13

Original Portuguese version on Glam Magazine. Weariness apart, both last bands were meant for more eclectic ears and a fair share of the crowd considered Vagos done after HAMMERFALL. But GORGUTS technical death metal has many fans, especially among musicians, and … Continue reading
