The old school death metallers of Hail Of Bullets don’t play that many club shows. But now with a brand new album under their belt, they planned a release show in the Baroeg in Rotterdam – the town where two of their members come from. There were two Dutch support slots added to the gig. […]
Dissect @ Popcentrale, Dordrecht, 25 October 2013
Apparently this was the first “metal night” at the new Popcentrale in Dordrecht. Two Dutch metal bands from a time long ago and that had reformed were playing. Particularly Dissect interested me a lot as I really like their debut album Swallow Swouming Mass. And I never had a chance to see them.I also skipped […]
Grave @ Baroeg, 6 October 2013
The second gig in the same weekend for me. This one on an autumn Sunday afternoon. Two tours were combined to one gig, a short tour by Grave and a tour by Necros Christos. And the Baroeg added an additional support act as well. That support was none other than Anthropomorphia. A cult act from […]
Psycroptic @ Baroeg, 4 October 2013
Finally, after seeing them as a support act a few times, a headlining show of the Tasmanian Psycroptic. Fortunately guitarist Joe Haley had recovered from his epileptic seizure or something like that, so the band didn’t have to play with a tape recording of the guitars, like they did on the first couple of gigs […]
Ahab and Mourning Beloveth @ Willemeen, Arnhem, 27 September 2013
Ahab and Mourning Beloveth are doing a very short tour through the low lands with one stop in the Netherlands. I was a little in doubt whether to go or not, since I don’t see them as really good live bands. But in the end I decided to go to Arnhem anyway. I missed most […]

The main changes are: Browse pages add more data when scrolling to the end of the page […]
URD has a new website!
And boy was it needed! Check it out here: http://www.urdland.com Our old website was borked after the webhoster upgraded PHP, which Joomla (1.1…) could not handle. Many pages did not show content but merely an error message, so it was time for action. After some deliberation we decided to do something radical and 1) move […]
King Diamond @ 013, Tilburg, 6 August 2013
The King is back. After some medical problems a while back, King Diamond is touring the major European summer festival but also managed to slip in a few club gigs. Like the one in 013. The gig got riddled with confusion, after erroneous announcements that they would play a three hour set, shifts in the […]
Hobb’s Angel Of Death @ Little Devil 2 August 2013
Due to some unfortunate circumstances I missed the gig Hobb’s Angel of Death did in the same venue. So now I got a second chance. So despite the heat I went to Tilburg again. Luckily there was airco in the venue. The opening act was a local band named Lucifericon. They are a relatively new […]
Krisiun gig in 013, October 2004
Opening were Ragnarok, as Norwegian (?) black metal band who I thought were kinda cheesy. Not my thing, but not really bad. Next up were Incantation. Due to personal problems, their drummer left shortly before the show and they had only half an hour to rehearse with the new one. So they only played a […]
