Kreator had been touring to support their Phantom Antichrist album in the autumn of 2012. Then they visited the Effenaar in Eindhoven. Now two years later, they returned to play in 013 Tilburg again, with no less than three support acts. And on a Thursday that means it starts at 17.40. It seems the metal […]

Rotterdam Death Fest, Baroeg, Rotterdam, 22 November 2014
Rotterdam death fest return to the Baroeg this year for two days of death metal. The first day was reserved more for technical, modern death metal, the second day aimed more at old school death metal. For me there was only one major attraction really, the New Zealand trio that go by the name Ulcerate. […]
Mourning Dawn @ Little Devil, 21 November 2014
Ridden with Disease (okay a bit of a cold), I drove to Tilburg to watch Mourning Dawn. A French doom metal band that doesn’t play live a whole lot. This was their only Dutch gig since five years. As this started at half past nine, it was a pretty smooth ride to Tilburg with no […]
Scream Bloody Scum III, Scum, Katwijk, 15 November 2014
This third installment of the Scream Bloody Scum festival was the first I attended. Previous festivals didn’t have a really interesting line-up even though it is quite nearby. This year the festival had a more interesting line-up with only Dutch bands though. When I stepped out the car – yeah parking space is right in […]
Dutch Doom Day 2014 – Day 1, 31 October 2014, Baroeg
Much like last year the line-up of the Dutch Doom Day wasn’t very interesting, generally with too much classic doom, sludge, stoner, etc. Many of which I had never heard. Except that the festival was extended to 3 days instead and the first day has two interesting bands. So I only visited the that day. […]
Destruction @ Baroeg, 13 October 2014
Of the big three of Teutonic Thrash bands, I have always preferred Sodom and Kreator and never cared that much for Destruction. Even though their first couple of albums are actually quite good, none of their songs really made the impression that Nuclear Winter, Sodomy and Lost, Pleasure to Kill or Flag of Hate did. […]
Vallenfyre @ Baroeg, 7 October 2014
Yep I saw Vallenfyre two days ago, but after the tour with Bolt Thrower, where they only played about half the dates, they continue on a headlining tour of their own. And since it is not too far away, worth to check them out again. The opening band was the Dutch Massive Assault who play […]
Bolt Thrower @ Muziekodroom, Hasselt, 5 October 2014
All or nearly all gigs of The Overture of War tour by Bolt Thrower were sold out entire. I recently saw them at the Baroeg Open Air festival, but that gig wasn’t all that on par with the usual Bolt Thrower experience. Although that wasn’t all their fault really. Anyway, I much prefer club gigs […]
Bolt Thrower @ Baroeg Open Air 2014, 20 September 2014
This was actually the first installment of Baroeg Open Air I attended. Usually the line-up is not very interesting. And frankly this years lineup constisted of even less metal than before. But headlining was Bolt Thrower was headlining, so that of course means I had to go. I had wanted to see De Raggende Manne […]
Cryptopsy @ Het Paard, Den Haag, 4 September 2014
I’ve been living in the The Hague (Den Haag) area now for some 15 years and this is only the second gig in The Hague I go to (see also this post http://www.kmachine.nl/blog/?p=66). So to say that metal is alive and kicking in here is a blantant lie. A long time ago Het Paard was […]
