E-Werk, Cologne, Germany
26th November 2012
Garbage & Superbus
The last big GARBAGE tour in Europe took place seven years ago in support of the fourth studio album ‘Bleed Like Me’ when much to anyone’s surprise the last dates in France, UK and Belgium were cancelled and rumours occurred that the band would split-up. But the band around Scottish singer Shirley Manson found together again to release their fifth album in May 2012 and after appearances on Hurricane and Southside Festival in summer, the band now scheduled two dates in Germany in the course of their current world tour. The second last date of this tour took place in Cologne, where lots of fans were squeezing into the jam-packed E-Werk to see an energy-laden show.

End of Green
Happy birthday, END OF GREEN! Under this slogan (OK, granted, it’s “20 Years of Selfdestruction”, but let’s not get picky here), the Goth-Rockers from Swabia are finally touring again. And this fact - plus the announcement of a deluxe-set across 20 years of band-history - were reason enough to take the trip to Substage Karlsruhe and see what END OF GREEN got for their fans.

Into Darkness Festival: Pain, Moonspell, Swallow the Sun, Lake of Tears & Scar of the Sun
Darkness has many faces – and many musical outputs. For the second time, Rock the Nation invited to a tour under the banner “Into Darkness”, stating on 9th November. The package offered a varied dark line-up, from Industrial Metal to Gothic or even dark-romantic Doom. The show in Bochum was the second last one and when I arrived, the queue was not so very long. Reason might have been the early starting hour – at 18:00 – and later on, the venue was luckily really packed with people eager to enjoy this great dark line-up.

Opeth & Anathema
The tickets for this event sold in a heartbeat. No wonder since it was the only time around here where both bands could be seen playing unplugged sets. The queue was long and everyone was anxious to get in to get out of the cold and the rain and to nail a good seat...

Haus Auensee, Leipzig, Germany
16th November 2012
And One, Welle:Erdball, Melotron, !distain
a lot of trouble happened in the past month about this tour that originally was planned as a DEPECHE MODE cover tour by AND ONE. Lots of things have changed, not only the content of the tour being now a “normal” AND ONE fill-time show, also the line-up and the dates. But finally, there was the concert in Leipzig coming…
