English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    29 mei 2016

I must admit it’s the first time I review Amon Amarth and I know that they are for years working around the viking theme. I can say that these Swedish folks got me hooked from the first notes! The artwork is a real eye catcher and as you all know: a good eye catcher is the perfect start!

English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    9 mei 2016

It’s their debut album, but it’s not like they are newbies. To start with the singer: Tom Van Troyen (Spiral of Silence), I follow this guy for over years! In the past he sounded more like Joy Division and was already back than backed up by Antonio Palermo on guitar. You know Antonio ...

It has been a while that I wanted to see Kamelot on stage and after their last CD (a pearl): I marked this date! I saw recently Serenity at the Biebob and that made this double date even more interesting (as I totally enjoyed their show)! Aeverium has the duty to open up the show, never seen them...
