Tochka Club, Moscow, Russia 30th January 2010
Draconian, Eden, Voiceless Void
In November 2008, Swedish Gothic-Doom-Metal formation DRACONIAN gained popularity among Russian fans of the style and of course after such a hearty welcome they had in Russia, the musicians needed to come back. Indeed they did it on the 30th of January 2010, so the audience had an opportunity to know better the music of the band and to enjoy new version of the well-known songs. The event started with the performances of two supporting bands, namely VOICELESS VOID and EDEN. These representatives of Russian Gothic-Metal scene produced a fairly good impression and managed to heat up the people in the venue almost in no time.

Matrix, Bochum, Germany12th February 2010
10 Years Empire of Darkness with Agonoize and surprise act Diary of Dreams
For the Matrix club in Bochum, this night was a special night, as they could celebrate 10 years of the very popular EoD party series the other day. For that, they’ve invited the blood lusty trio AGONOIZE and a then-unknown secret guest. But putting AGONOIZE on the bill already was enough to draw an incredible number of people to the club forming the longest queue I’ve ever seen lining up in front of that club.

Colos-Saal, Aschaffenburg, Germany10th February 2010
Hypocrisy & Survivors Zero
On a cold winter’s evening, only few people dared to wait in front of the Colos-Saal too early before the doors would open. It was not until half past seven, roughly forty minutes after the doors opened, that the venue started to get more crowded. Places in the front row could comfortably be secured as well as T-Shirts or drinks picked up before the first band started. In the meanwhile, the Colos-Saal “entertained” the audience with their advertisement for future gigs, unfortunately many of them somehow not fitting the general taste in music. Nevertheless, punctually at eight o’ clock SURVIVORS ZERO entered the stage.

Zeche, Bochum, Germany7th February 2010
The 69 Eyes, Mandragora Scream
That Sunday was a bleak one. Something irreversible, happening earlier that day reminded me of how fleeting life is and kept my thoughts adrift. So a distraction was more than welcome and this one came in the form of THE 69 EYES and MANDRAGORA SCREAM who turned out being good means to do the job.
