Uriah Heep & Nazareth
Both URIAH HEEP & NAZARETH need no too detailed introduction to rock fans. That’s why a little breakdown should be more than enough. Both bands are icons in their own right and their respective genre. URIAH HEEP’s career kicked off in 1969 and still seen as a precursor to the progressive metal genre, being one of the first bands to mingle elements of both worlds, but rather emphasizing melodic elements later. Last year saw the band releasing ‘Into The Wild’ most likely extensively covered in Münster.

Suomi Metal Star contest winner ODDLAND will release debut album in April. Do you remember? It was ODDLAND from Turku who won the majority of the Suomi Metal Star contest jury members with sophisticated Prog Metal / Rock and got a record deal with Century Media Records. After spending months writing new material, the band is very excited to get the record out to fans. "This record was long in the making, as most of the tracks were already composed when we got signed by CM, but even the older songs evolved a lot during pre-production. We feel that in the end we succeeded in making a great record as a whole, rather than just a collection of individual songs." says Sakari Ojanen (vocals / guitar).
