Norway’s rising stars in metalcore Fixation released the new single ‘Random Acts Of Violence’ via Indie Recordings last week, while they’re gearing up to embark on their summer tour which will take them to Tuska in Finland next week!

Norwegian metalcore sensation Fixation makes history as first metal band ever to be nominated to the prestigious Norwegian awards “Musikkforleggerprisen”! And not just once, but twice!

Make sure you catch these stars on the rise whenever they come near you in 2024, like for instance at Tuska festival in Finland this summer…

Tuska unleashed the first batch of bands for the 2024 line-up and it seems they put their chips strongly on modern metal/metalcore with Bring Me The Horizon, Bloodred Hourglass, Bury Tomorrow, Make Them Suffer, Infected Rain and Fixation, proggy music with Opeth, Vola, Voyager and Riverside, and power metal with Alestorm, Angus McSix and Brothers Of Metal. And of course, festival regulars Amorphis and Stam1na belong to the party as well!

What do you think of the line-up already? Who do you hope to be added still?

Lists

Tomorrow it’s again that time of the year: Tuska weekend is upon us! If somehow you weren’t convinced yet that you need to go, here are 10 reasons we believe should be enough motivation to still get a ticket if any are available still! Going from a great line-up, to Tuska KVLT, Tuska Expo expanding further and simply an amazing atmosphere! See you there!

Devin Townsend

Devin Townsends’s Lightwork tour 2023 took a stop at Le Splendid in Lille, France for an evening filled with wonder and laughter, supported by the bands Klone and Fixation!

Interviews

Today we’re already sitting down with Fixation again to have a chat about their soon-to-be released new album, but back in February, we already had a short conversation with vocalist Jonas Hansen about touring with Devin Townsend, their music and what he hopes to accomplish with it, some of his personal vocal inspirations, and how he would describe their music using just visuals.

Gig Reports

The Canadian Mastermind Devin Townsend brought us again an evening not to forget. With his outstanding sense of humor and his backlog of incredible music he took the audience on a trip throughout the world he has created. With the support of Klone and Fixation all progheads were in for a party at Splendid in Lille.
