And so it happened I went on a metalcruise again. Haven´t been on them ships since spring 2010 so It was really nice:) It was quite windy the day we left, and somewhere on the open sea between the Swedish and Finnish archipelago I really could feel it. I´ve had just a couple of beers but felt like a drunk person:)) I´m not going to say that much about the gigs, just sending up the pics in the order the bands played. Btw there´s a small gallery by me on the SRC webpages. Made some pics really fast when I got back home.

sjmAt last I got to see IN SOLITUDE again. Haven´t seen them live since they played at Harry B. James for a long time ago. The Åhman brothers started up when they were really young and kept it going in style ever since. I´ll never forget the KATALYSATOR gig @ Uppsala Blodbad back in 2005. Pelle wasn´t even had his 13th birthday yet and all the guys in the band were like…kids:) Omfg what a great gig that was!!
Anyway, I got high expectations for this one and It didn´t go wrong. Fantastic show and i just loved it!! All my respect to the band! I´d really like to skip the GORGOROTH gig in Stockholm in november and go to Gothenburg instead to see these guys play with WATAIN and DEGIAL. Working on it…;) The band came recently back from a tour in US with DOWN and will be playing all over Europe this fall, so go and check them out! Really dark on stage so used a flash for some pics.

After the movie we took a short walk to Strand for the releaseparty with some live music. SWITCH OPENS other guitarist Mikael was out of town, so Tobias Alpadie (Gordon Fights) filled in. He did great and the show was really good as always. Cool, difficult-to-shoot lights also;) I heard that they got a new deal with Transubstans Records and a new SO album is in making! Good news!:)

RFCRFirst of all – great thanks to the organizers, especially Erik T. in SCARPOINT. Had a great time!

Didn´t take som many pics besides the live ones, but here´s the few I did take. Some fashion shooting with Kenneth & Jonas (SCAR SYMMETRY) along with Peter and Alexander. Ellos catalogue anno -85 revisited! The rest of the pics immortalizes some SCARPOINT & CLAWFINGER ppl, a couple of guys I don´t know at all and Jesper in a suit (!!??!!) and with a cigar (!??).

 

I also stalked SCAR SYMMETRY vocalists Roberth & Lars to their dressing room in hope to see some nudity, but naaahh. Roberth handed me a beer, tho. The pic I took on P.A. is totally unpublishable. Like so many other pics of him before;) And that´s was about it…except that Roberth will be back in STHLM next week with his other band FACEBREAKER!! Don´t miss it!!! THE RESISTANCE, CRUCIFYRE & MR. DEATH will be there too!

There haven´t been that many BLINDSIDE gigs in Stockholm the past years, but they did play at the Getaway Festival in July.  Still I think I prefer to see them on a smaller stage like this one. Too bad most of the people choose to show up to the last band because they did a really good show.

“Rock 4 Childrens Rights” at Debaser Medis in Stockholm. Brilliant evening with some great bands.

 

SCARPOINT drummer Erik (Thyselius) worked his ass off, both with the event and also the SCARPOINT gig, which btw was AWESOME!! If you ever get a chance to see them live, don´t miss it!! Just go!! So big thanks for having me!:))
