In Italiano QUI Gong is not just a band—it’s a planet; an entire musical ecosystem in constant transformation. We had the chance to attend their concert at Hotel Cecil in Copenhagen during the Universal Ascension 24 Tour, and it was an experience that far exceeded our expectations. Approaching a seminal band from the 1970s psychedelic progressive scene, now without its brilliant founder Daevid Allen and … Leggi tutto
In Italiano QUI Night Fever’s hardcore is immediate and unadorned, with direct and raw lyrics, devoid of social pretentiousness, ostentatious activism, or lofty artistic ambitions. It is anger and social redemption. Salomon does not act as an intellectual or a merchant; he composes his music as if it were only for himself. Ruthlessly sincere. It is easy to imagine them as angry dogs barking just … Leggi tutto
In Italiano QUI The Wait is Over: Greif has been released, and the international tour is making a stop in Copenhagen (AmagerBio, August 28, 2024), just a few days after the release of the new album.

In Italiano QUI The Vulvarines Ditte, Sofie, Signe with Florent & Rasmus are in town and making a loud impact! The brazen punk energy ignites the Scandinavian black metal rhythms beaten out by Rasmus. Rebellion of social protest finds its expression in the heavy distorted guitars of Signe and Sofie, while Ditte’s growling scratches relentlessly. 2024 was the year the Vulvatorius exploded, with their debut … Leggi tutto

VISIONS OF ATLANTIS – Symphony Of The Pirates A name that has camped in several situations and at many concerts intrigued us and we wanted to explore Visions Of Atlantis a little closer. There is also a bit of Italian-ness in the Austrian band and perhaps many of you already know this, but for many it could be a pleasant discovery and we will let … Leggi tutto
in Italiano QUI Waking up on the fourth day of Hell, I can feel the toll the days are taking. In an effort to became somewhat human again I stepped out to my Krav Maga training for an hour and a half of punches and kicks. A bit revitalized despite my worn-out state, I gather myself and head to Refshaløen. I leave my camera at … Leggi tutto
in Italiano QUI Friday, the third day of Copenhell 2024, marks the most anticipated and feared moment of this edition. A trying 12-hour crucible, the day spanned from 12:30 PM until 12:45 AM with barely a moment for rest. In this slog we witnessed some of the most interesting bands of the entire festival take the stage. It’s a blend of new sounds and highly … Leggi tutto
in Italiano QUI Copenhell is a marathon, not a sprint. In recognition of that, today’s experiences focus on opening our minds in preparation for the two very long hours with Tool this Saturday. I indulge in just one classic metal concert: Cradle of Filth. With determination, I open my senses to new sounds and encounters. Here are the other parts of our Live Report: [LINK … Leggi tutto
