The longer I’m doing this, the harder it gets every year to choose my best and/or favorite pictures I took at concerts the past year. Maybe I’m getting more satisfied with what I produce, or I’m simply improving the quality of my pictures every year again, or the shows I get to cover just deliver so much more epic moments to capture. Or maybe a bit of everything… In any case, after a year of catching amazing shows all over Helsinki, and of course amazing festivals like Tuska and Alcatraz, and a grueling process of elimination, I got to this collection of pictures featuring Battle Beast, Gaerea, Trollheim’s Grott, Avslut, Der Weg einer Freiheit, Amenra, Igorrr, Aesthetic Perfection, HIDE, SKYND, Ice Nine Kills, Utuk Xul, Rancid, Sick Of It All, Stratovarius, Testament, Michael Monroe, Volbeat, Hellacopters, Pensées Nocturnes, Amorphis, Biohazard, Killswitch Engage, Converge, Agnostic Front, Taake, Public Image Ltd, A.A. Williams, Butcher Babies, Clutch, Finntroll, Electric Callboy, Ghost, Gojira, Imperial Triumphant, Lorna shore, The Hu and Urne
