WIKI…and I quote: “Gorgoroth was founded in 1992 by guitarist Infernus after making a pact with the devil.In 1993, the band released their first demo, entitled A Sorcery Written in Blood. On January 7, 1994, Firda, the major newspaper in the county of Sogn og Fjordane where the band originated from, ran a cover story on the demo, with the headline “Local music with Satanic symbolism”.
According to the article, the release of the demo and flyers with Satanic symbols led to “concerned parents contacting the Sheriff’s Office in Fjaler”.”
Pest used to do the vocals in 1995–1997, and been back in the band in a few years now. Great show at Klubben, good lights:)

Even after all these line up changes, VADER is still the same. Really good. No fails, no surprises.
Can´t help missing Mauser & Novy, tho…

VALKYRJA made their way to Klubben with “The Sign of Hell Tour” and for me personally their gig was the most important one that evening. I´m late with the pics, so they already finished their 5-6 weeks on the road and I really hope they made millions of new fans while at it;)
The band is really great live and the album “Contamination” is amazing! They didn´t play “Ambience of The Dead” in Sthlm, and I slightly hate them for that. Actually they stroke the song from the setlist right before my eyes!:O Oh well…anyway, they did a great show!

MySpace: “2011: – The band has concentrated mainly on composing new songs for their follow-up album to DDD. We are planning to enter studio to record and within next year have the album released.
– During the summer, we deicided to concentrate on composing and thus only took part at 1 show, the Eisenwahn Festival in Germany.
– We are hoping for 2012 to be our most active year to date with tonnes of live gigs to support our 2nd album.”

By now everybody probably knows what WATAIN means to me. I´ve seen them in different countries, on bigger and smaller stages and the experience is always the same. Pure awesomeness and magic, both visually and emotionally. There are many great bands who make great music and totally rule on stage. And there´s WATAIN. Always high above everything else. Simple as that. Lots of respect.
Anyway, I couldn´t stay near the stage after the 3 first songs because the filmcrew (eventually there will be a DVD!) were all over the place. So the rest of the pics are from the balcony. Cool to get some pics of the whole stage and the crowd, but it was a bit too far from the heat & the stench;))

Great bands on the bill this evening!! MALIGN first on stage and I have to admit that I didn´t have a clue about the line-up. I knew about MALIGN, of course, but didn´t do my homework when it came to the guys playing in the band.  Just that I thought there was something so familiar about the vocalist…haha:) Felt a bit stupid when I found out who it was:)   Anyway a really cool gig!

I´ll keep myself out of the discussions about “who is who” & “what is what”. I just adore the Romanian stuff:). The soundscapes, weird instruments, all of it. So beautiful.

Basics from E.M: Negură Bunget started its Black Metal presence back in 1995, as a duo, with Hupogrammos Disciple’s on vocals, guitars and keyboards and Negru on drums. After a disagreement between Sol Faur, Hupogrammos and Negru, the band decided to split-up. Negru decided to continue the project with a new line-up. Hupogrammos and Sol Faur have started a new project called Dordeduh. Negură Bunget means “Dark Foggy Forest.”
