Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. TALES FOR THE UNSPOKEN, on the other hand, had Raça from REVOLUTION WITHIN sharing the stage with them and singing “Taken”, from the band’s second album “CO2”. Their mix of thrash and death and groove metal kept the … Continue reading

ORPHANED LAND @ Vagos Open Air, 2015/08/09

Originally written for Valkyrian Music. I’ve seen ORPHANED LAND a few times and know how popular they are here, but still Kobi Farhi felt the need to explain to the crowd that he wasn’t Jesus Christ, he only looked like him. … Continue reading

R.A.M.P. @ Laurus Nobilis Música Famalicão, 2015/07/24

This gallery contains 60 photos.

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. I’m not sure how famous R.A.M.P. are outside of Portugal, but here they’re close to legends – after all, they were the first metal band to enter the Portuguese music charts, back in 1998. And … Continue reading

REVOLUTION WITHIN @ Hard Bar, 2015/07/10

I was at the very first gig of REVOLUTION WITHIN, at Gaia Em Peso 2005, so being there that night, celebrating “A Decade From Within” had a special feeling to it. Two special feelings, actually – even though I’ve been … Continue reading

BLACKUNPLUGGED @ Bedouinbar, 2015/06/27

I’ve known Matador (guitar) and Suzy (bass) for ages, but it wasn’t friendship that led me to São João da Madeira that night – a bunch of rock & metal classics in unplugged mode? Couldn’t miss it! Songs such as … Continue reading

EQUALEFT @ Canecas Bar, 2015/05/29

This gallery contains 87 photos.

EQUALEFT, the groove masters. I believe this was the first show I’ve been to where Miguel didn’t wield his lightsaber during “Invigorate”. But he was busy holding Sheila, the venue’s sex doll mascot, so…  Sheila had perished last year, precisely at … Continue reading

TALES FOR THE UNSPOKEN @ Canecas Bar, 2015/05/29

This gallery contains 78 photos.

This TALES FOR THE UNSPOKEN gig wasn’t much different from the one I’d seen 6 days before – just a better stage, at a better partying venue, and therefore better pics.  We did learn a couple of new things though: that the single/video … Continue reading

EMBRYO @ Hard Club, 2015/05/16

Originally posted in Valkyrian Music. MELECHESH and KEEP OF KALESSIN brought along two support acts, the first on stage being Italian EMBRYO. They add some synths to their death metal, but I’m not sure if “melodic death metal” is the most accurate … Continue reading

BLAME ZEUS @ Hard Club, 2015/05/09

I believe it was CINEMUERTE who organized the event – at least both DESERTO and BLAME ZEUS thanked them for the invitation – but despite that and their much longer career, the headlining role was played by BLAME ZEUS. Probably … Continue reading
