You probably know by now exactly how dear Firma are to me and how much I could fangirl over Rocca if left undisturbed. And especially after watching them in Desteptarea primaverii, doing something out of their comfort zone and once more excelling at it, I was quite excited to hear the Poezii …

The previous Dim days of dolor album sparked my then dwindling concern for Sirenia, and not only due to Emmanuelle’s deep, rich and pleasant voice. The band showed some promise in attempting to correct other things that were previously wrong, such as the ex-machina choirs and grunts and the coldness and general …

I was a bit on the fence about doing this review, because it relates to a theatre play and not an actual concert. But after giving it further thought, I realised that I mostly treated it like a Firma concert and it was a wonderful experience that had a deep …

I don’t even remember how many times I’ve seen this amazing band live, I’ve lost count. But every single time, no exception, it was a magical night and what I do remember is the feeling of absolute happiness at witnessing something so awesome. But first, a few words about the …

I’m always enthusiastic when I hear about a new Van Canto album, I know many consider them only a gimmicky band, but I like them a lot. They have a good vibe, put a smile on my face and some of their collaborations are really really awesome (Hansi for the win). …

It’s been a while since I’ve been to a large stadium-like concert (or in our case, parking lot concert, because apparently that’s the only place where we can host shows over 2000 people) and I now remember why I prefer smaller venues. There’s an undeniable energy and adrenaline that comes …

Finally I get a chance to sit down and write about the awesomeness of Stone Sour + Nothing More! It was such a crazy experience that even now, three days later, I am still feeling it in my bones and in my throat. And it was worth every single freaking …

Oceans of slumber are one of those inexplicably underrated bands, that are so good and intriguing it’s hard to accept they are so little known instead of receiving the appreciation they deserve. After an excellent reboot with Winter and the wonderful Cammie Gilbert, I was all ears for their newest release and …
