Zwischenfall, Bochum, Germany17th April 2008
Angels & Agony, Legacy of Music
I’ve never been on a concert with so few people attending it. The show was announced to start at 8:00 PM but fact it was past 9 until the show finally began. The number of people didn’t increase much during that time and so, all two bands did their best to make this a funny and great show anyway…

K17, Berlin, Germany21st March 2008
The Candy Spooky Theatre
THE CANDY SPOOKY THEATER describe their music as “Your mom being stabbed to death in your closet as you sleep” - gothic rock with a taste of horror and humour, combined with a promise of tongue-in-cheek theatrics which could have been easily invented by Tim Burton himself, this Japanese Visual Kei band sounded extremely exciting. With an entrance price of € 25, THE CANDY SPOOKY THEATER could align itself with the big names that have played K17. I was ready for a huge Visual Kei Harajuku fest, a giant gathering of Germany’s most extreme Visual Kei fans, a cool insider-version of what I’d seen a few months earlier in the huge Treptow Arena when Girugamesh and Aural Vampire played for free. God, was I wrong. http://www.myspace.com/candyspookytheatermurder

Palladium, Cologne, Germany15th April 2008
Fury in the Slaughterhouse & Schulz
After 21 years band history, FURY IN THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE now decided to call it quits and end the history of the band, much to the regret of many fans. “Luckily” you had the chance to see the band once more live during their farewell tour which was leading the band on 15th April to Cologne, where also the tour DVD was filmed. The venue was totally packed and anyone was looking forward the show. Originally planned as supports were GREGORY DARLING and SCHULZ, but Mr. Darling was undergoing a surgery on both eyes and so, he had to cancel the rest of the tour.

Live-Music-Hall, Cologne, Germany13th April 2008
Adam Green, Turner Cody
ADAM GREEN is back in Germany. In the land that loves him the most and which celebrates every new release. The newest one is called ‘Sixes and Sevens’ and was released in March 2008 and it was clear that he would visit Germany. The first stop was at the Live-Music-Hall in Cologne and it should become a memorable night for everyone.

Luxor, Cologne, Germany10th April 2008
Mindless Self Indulgence & Gerilja
With their mix of Rock, HipHop, Punk and Electronica, MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE (MSI) make it difficult for anyone who wants to put their music into a specific draw. The band calls their music “Industrial Jungle Pussy Punk” and they celebrate it excessively on stage, often in eccentric costumes. The band from New York is not only known for mixing different styles and influences musically, they are also best known for live shows you would not forget that fast. So, I was very curious what awaited me during that evening in Cologne in the tiny and very packed Luxor club.
