NETHERGOD @ Milagre Metaleiro, 2017/07/22

The beauty of the national underground: you spend years without seeing a band, and then in little over four months, you see them twice.  So not much has changed since the last time I’ve seen NETHERGOD (read here), except that this … Continue reading

H.O.S.T. @ Milagre Metaleiro, 2017/07/22

Last July, Milagre Metaleiro chose Metalpoint for one of its editions. First artist/band of the evening was Manuel Duarte, which I missed due to a family commitment. Got there on time for H.O.S.T. though, which is a toddler – about … Continue reading

SWITCHTENSE @ BBBlast! Party, 2017/06/03

When SWITCHTENSE celebrated their 10th anniversary a DVD was released with the title “10 Unbreakable Years”. Four more years have passed and that’s what they still are – unbreakable. The mosh pits at their gigs are usually too brutal; don’t … Continue reading

This gallery contains 54 photos.

IN VEIN @ D.R.A.C., 2017/03/25

This gallery contains 48 photos.
