Sometimes an add on Facebook helps you to discover new things, this time is the excellent new project called Exit Eden. Amanda Somerville (Avantasia, Epica and Kamelot), Clémentine Delauney (Visions of Atlantis, Serenity, Melted pace), Marina La Torraca (Avantasia and Phantom Elite) and Ann...
Eluveitie was founded in 2002 by Christian “Chrigel” Glanzmann and have become a well-known part of today’s metal scene since then. Their original mixture of folk and melodic death metal which is enhanced by the use of a number of traditional instruments caused quite a stir righ...
Ye Banished Privateers describes themselves as a band, a crew an’ a soup kitchen playing sea shanties, bastardized Irish folk an' 17th century punk. And oh, yes: they are from Sweden. I have never heard of them before, but like Alestorm, so this one could be my cup of tea too, let&rsquo...
I have been following this band for some years and have never been disappointed. As for today I can confirm that they delivered a new blast! The show goes on and the energetic power play stays tuned in! This is simply finger licking awesome!
Blind Guardian is one of those bands figuring on my wish list of must see on stage.

I saw them for the first time on stage at Graspop Metal Meeting and bought their album of the moment Judgement as soon as possible. Until now this album has been their best album ever, closely followed by Weather Systems. Last weekend I saw them again on stage at Graspop. Just as they told the cr...
Kristell has been working recently on her solo project, but somehow felt the urge to return to her band: in full force! Brussels-based act Lovelorn Dolls rise from their ashes again like a phoenix and offer us a first and pretty noir appetizer to their forthcoming third album… Lament is pr...
