My prejudice was proven to be justified when Whatever End came on stage. I admit that I had never heard of them prior to their performance. Their progressive/doom metal was too loud for the PA and the bass sounded completely distorted often tuning up with furniture and causing big vibrations.… Read More

The acoustic “full band” performance at Bad City was interesting. It wasn’t completely packed, which made the whole event, a little easier to “appreciate” and the band was a bit more loose and was joking and mucking about with Tom Englund, not taking himself too seriously and making too often… Read More

The band had a decent modicum of success with its initial albums in their native Germany and all around and I suppose the better informed metallers in Greece might have gotten wind of them, as their “return” in the 90s was spearheaded by some of the band’s best works, but it wasn’t until 1996’s… Read More

This show was just one of the 45 he’s lined… Read More
