Time for the last day of TOLLROCK – Day 3! No more rain, but slightly cooler temperatures but more awesome music. Live on stage a TOLLROCKERZ Band Contest with 3 local upcoming bands, DEINE COUSINE, ROGERS, BEYOND THE BLACK, ROYAL REPUBLIC and BONANSKA. What a day! We are looking forward to 2025 already and see what TOLLROCK will bring to the stage!

Nashville symphonic power metal band Valkyrie’s Fire signed a worldwide deal with Eclipse Records and are set to release their debut EP ‘Ascension’ in November!

We sat down with Onni and Kevin from Assemble the Chariots at Tuska 2024 to talk about their new album ‘Unyielding Night’ (set for release on July 19th via Seek and Strike), how this is the start of a whole universe they’re creating, with the sound they’ve always envisioned for the band from the beginning. And we came back from the talk with 2 things ingrained in our heads: listen to the album from start to finish, and make sure you make it to the release show at On The Rocks in Helsinki where they’ll play the album in its whole for what sounds like a unique experience…

Pictures of the artists on the main stage of the first day of Tuska 2024, with Lord of the Lost, Alestorm, Kerry King, Dimmu Borgir and Pendulum!
