The first night of Hellsinki Industrial Festival 2022 was absolutely killer with Div Mod, Siva Six, King Satan, Freakangel, Mechanical Vein, Faderhead, System Noire, and the glorious return of industrial icon Suicide Commando!

If you’re in the neighborhood of Helsinki, you like some proper hard beats and you don’t know what to do yet… in case you missed this completely and need convincing still, check out why we think you should go to Hellsinki Industrial Festival this weekend!

We had the chance to visit the next to last gig of the ‘Symphonic Metal Nights Tour 2022’ with co-headliners Visions of Atlantis and Xandria and support from Ye Banished Privateers. A hot and sweaty night that got our photographer to go back home drenched!

Even after 44 years of touring, the unquestionable legends of post-punk The Cure still delivered an almost three hour show of beautiful music with uncanny production and sound at Jäähalli Helsinki.

After thirty years and counting, The Slackers are still rude & reckless and stronger than they ever were on stage at Kavka in Antwerp. A true live band that found support from local band Moodcollector.

Sonata Arctica gave us a blast of a show on their gig in Hämeenlinna and Verkatehdas made it perfect by delivering excellent sound. The show was presented by TuskaLive.

After Volume 1 of ‘Acoustic Adventures’ came out in January via Atomic Fire Records, its follow up wasn’t far behind. Volume 2 focuses more on the faster tunes in Sonata Arctica’s catalogue, but is just as filled with tender emotions.
