Tonight marks Down’s Luxembourg debut, and unsurprisingly, it’s a sell-out. Then again, according to the modest tour shirts (whose dates are obscured by a giant red ‘SOLD OUT’ stamp), so is the whole tour. It came as a bit of… Continue Reading →
I was very excited about this one – four bands that I like all painting musical pictures in different and unusual ways. It all hung on the live representation. I just hoped the sound in the venue was going… Continue Reading →
The second incarnation of the Full Moon Dog Festival, an event dedicated in remembrance of the tragic death of Jay-Jay Winter, bassist and singer of Asomvel. Maintaining a passion for purist heavy metal the festival doggedly sticks to the roots… Continue Reading →
