Annet is always looking for music that takes her either on an emotional ride or gets her going on a musical party. In 2022 she found what she was looking for in the releases from bands like Kissin Dynamite, Killswitch Engage, Mantah, Alestorm, Sleeping With Sirens, Simple Plan, The Halo Effect, Electric Callboy, Avantasia and Parkway Drive!
Legendary Belgian metal band Channel Zero finally got to celebrate their 30th anniversary (a few years late due to the pandemic) at Cactus Club in Brugge, a small venue that was a perfect setting for an intense, energetic and somewhat intimate show. Support came from modern metal/nu metal stars on the rise Mantah!
Belgium’s most popular nu metal cover band Bizkit Park set the Wilde Westen venue in Kortrijk on fire, while newcomers Mantah got the crowd fired up straight from the very beginning!
There were many reasons to be excited for this. This night was set up to be a blast no matter what with a whole lot of firsts! First live shows from promising bands Secondhand Saints, Three Times Royal and Mantah!
Support your locals is a slogan we always carry near our heart and Alcatraz Festival seems to have a similar mentality every year when they put together their line-up. Here are some of the Belgian acts we caught at this years edition of the fest with Serial Butcher, Gnome, Do Or Die, Kludde, Predatory Void, Serpents Oath, Aeveris, Psychonaut, Mantah, Evil Invaders, Reject The Sickness, Brutal Sphincter, STAKE and Brutus!
The last day of a long and exhausting weekend of great music and atmosphere was all about the Belgian music scene at La Morgue with Aeveris, Brutal Sphincter, Hexa Mera, Mantah and Reject The Sickness!
Ex-Spoil Engine’s guitarist Bart Vandeportaele’s new band Mantah released their first Album ‘Evoke’ with a release show in Club de B in Torhout, Belgium while (also ex-Spoil Engine) Iris’ new band Three Times Royal warms up the crowd right after opener Secondhand Saints!
Mantah brings you low tuned and heavy guitar riffs. Their album ‘Evoke’ gives a mix between late 90s nu metal, modern metal and metalcore, very melodic and heavy at the same time. A beautiful album to listen to, musically at first, but also lyrically when you take the time to dive deeper into this album.
