As the first of three duos took the stage tonight we were well aware that there was not going to be a whole lot going on to watch in front of us and it was all about the music more… Continue Reading →
Hailing from ‘THE NORTH’, it’s difficult not to immediately fall in love with Satanic Dystopia as soon as they take the stage. Decked out in balaclavas and sunglasses, and looking like a poor man’s Midnight, they put on a performance… Continue Reading →
