We met up with Dante, Gian and Pavel from the Mexican metal outfit Anima Tempo while they were in Finland and talked about their present European tour, which also will take them to our own venue Asgaard in Belgium, their unique take on their music, trying to find some new approaches every time both in recordings and live, how they love the energy from the European crowds and what they’re working on of new music and concept!

This past summer, Assemble The Chariots released a monumentally epic debut full-length album, a concept album that is the first chapter of a massive world they’re building.

And with the addition of supporting guests acts IA and Lightbearer, it was truly a mind-bending night to remember for a long time! If you want to catch Assemble the Chariots live, this weekend is your shot with their show at Helsinki Techfest this Friday and their first ever arena show with Lost Society in Järvenpää this Saturday!
