Universum, Stuttgart, Germany4th May 2007
Funker Vogt, NoyceTM, Dioxide
Once again this evening, the Universum Stuttgart, which has celebrated its farewell party recently on May 19th, had invited to a special event for the friends of electronic music. FUNKER VOGT, the German Electro/EBM heroes, were to present their newest release ‘Aviator’ to their fans, and were the night's headliners. But there should be more goodies for the visitors, like the openers DIOXIDE from Germany and NOYCETM, Oliver Goetz and Florian Schäfer's electronic music project. The Universum was about half-filled, and during the first two bands' performances the audience was quite retained, which observably changed when Jens Kästel and his band mates from FUNKER VOGT entered the stage.

With Full Force Day 1: BRUJERIA, CANNIBAL CORPSE, HATEBREED and KORN
I was sitting in the car, driving towards Leipzig and it started raining. Was this supposed to be the beginning of a cold and rainy festival? Actually, it was not. The sky cleared up soon afterwards and I was ready to start the WITH FULL FORCE 2007. With bands like CANNIBAL CORPSE, CALIBAN, KORN and AMON AMARTH it was promised to be a fantastic festival.

Hellendoorn, The NetherlandsMay 17th, 2007
Every year, on Ascension Day, a festival is held in the east of The Netherlands. It's known for its very early start in the morning, and that's also why it's called "Dauwpop". This name refers to the Dutch expression: "Getting up before day and dew". The gates are opened at 8.30 a.m. and shortly after that the first band already starts playing. I decided not to be there that early, because I had to pick up some people on the road and the trip would be more than one hour and a half to drive. The most interesting bands, the bands we'll discuss in this review, would play later that day.

Waldrock, Burgum, The NetherlandsJuly 7th, 2007
Within Temptation, Dropkick Murphys, Moonspell, Testament, Meshuggah, Destruction, Celtic Frost, Obituary, Autumn, Vader, Moonsorrow, One Bullet Left
This year was the 20th anniversary of the Waldrock festival. 20 years ago the festival started out with one stage, and all sorts of music. It took a few years for Waldrock to become a hardrock/metal festival. The first few years only a few thousand people made it to the field. Nowadays Waldrock had about 8000 visitors each year. They have expanded from one stage in the beginning to this year having three stages for the first time.

WGT DAY 3: Dope Stars Inc., Faun, Estampie/Qntal, ASP, UnterART, Punto Omega, The 69 Eyes, The Crüxshadows
The third day of the WGT came and I was excited about the bands that were coming up during this Sunday. The weather was beautiful, maybe a little bit too warm, and you could see styled people everywhere that were going to see high-class bands like DOPE STARS INC., ASP or THE CRÜXSHADOWS. It was promised to be one of the best days of this year’s WGT!
