ASP & Lahannya
It was a cold Saturday evening when we made our way to Potsdam. After driving into the wrong direction for about 15 minutes, we finally arrived at the Waschhaus where LAHANNYA had already begun playing their songs. Unfortunately, I had the wrong time in mind but it wasn't so bad since we only had missed 2 or 3 songs. However, we were happy to be there and watched LAHANNYA, waiting for the main act ASP to begin. Their CD ‘Fremd’ was released just a day ago, so everything was new and everybody was excited to see what the band had come up with.

Mono Inc., Stahlmann
MONO INC. alone is reason enough to make a long journey for many. MONO INC. and STAHLMANN guarantee a sold-out venue as happened on this late October evening when a centipede made of countless fans waited to get inside to celebrate together.

Pain & Engel
Peter Tägtgren the man who founded the Swedish death metal band HYPOCRISY in 1990 and raised a real brand by doing that is the creative force behind the project PAIN which, contrary to his other projects, incorporates a high amount of electronic elements from different genres. Now, PAIN is on a big European tour, stopping by in Cologne for a rather small show marking the end of the German tour. As supporting act, Swedish band ENGEL was accompanying them. When I reached the venue, already a long queue was waiting outside and my only though was “How the hell shall they all fit into this small club?” Well, they all were in and it was crowded, sticky and hot! Well, guess that’s how a sold-out show turns out…
