11th to 12th August 2007
M’era Luna Festival Day 1 - Main Stage: The Lovecrave, Lola Angst, Jesus on Extasy, Necro Facility, Client, Assemblage 23, Covenant, Dir en Grey, Schandmaul, And One, Tool
Mid August is always the time for one of the most important festivals for the Gothic scene and also one of the most important ones for us. This year, again nearly 20,000 fans of the dark side of music from all over Europe and even farther away gathered at the airfield in Hildesheim for yet another M’era Luna festival. Just in time for the first band, the rainy weather of the previous days disappeared and made room for perfect and dry festival weather. Very nice of the old guy up in the sky!

P60, Amstelveen, The NetherlandsJuly 20th 2007
Apoptygma Berzerk, NG-PRO
Yet again the organisation of Underground frequencies has managed to get one of the bigger bands in the scene to the Netherlands. This time the nice venue of P60 in Amstelveen has the honour to welcome Norway’s Apoptygma Berzerk. Quite a name in several countries around the world but in the Netherlands the 550 people venue was big enough for an intimate concert for the Dutch and many German fans.

Castlefest
I wasn’t supposed to write a review on Castlefest this year but I went there and it was so great I just couldn’t resist writing about it. This has been one of the highlights of this festival season. They have experienced a huge growth in visitors. On the first day they had more visitors at two o’clock then they had on the whole Friday the year before. So this third edition of Castlefest has been a huge success.

Kulturfabrik, Krefeld, Germany 9th August 2007
The Crüxshadows, Behind the Scenes
On Thursday, 9th August 2007, we took the chance to visit one of my favourite bands once again. THE CRÜXSHADOWS did a stop in Krefeld before they played on three several festivals at the upcoming weekend (Rock am Schloß - which was cancelled the day before as we knew now, Summer Darkness and M’era Luna Festival). The evening started with the support band BEHIND THE SCENES, it was the last support gig for them because the tour will finish after the upcoming festival-gigs. Also, the show in Krefeld was the last club show together with Rachel, who’s leaving the band after the tour.

Woodstage Festival Day 1: Felsenreich, Lacrimas Profundere, Agonoize, Welle:Erdball, Tanzwut, Paradise Lost, Blutengel, And One, Type O Negative
Summer and sunshine - what could be nicer? This prescription has proved itself since decades and also made this year's Woodstage a huge success. Beside a brightly mixed, but well-balanced program, above all, the weather took its part for this. Having lain picturesquely behind a lake and in the middle of a nice green park, this festival presented itself in the best frame.
