Fantasy, gothic, manga, folk...
What a great weekend for a fantasy fair. It was sunny but not too warm (which would have been deadly to some visitors, considering their costumes). As every year people had put a lot of work in to their outfits. I have seen some amazing creatures pass by. Sometimes solo but there were entire families dressed up. What also stood out this year were the many animals. Wolf dogs, white kittens, and many, many more.

Kato, Berlin, Germany12th March 2008
Chamber & Barbara Cuesta
Berlin’s public transport was on strike the day that CHAMBER played in Kato (and the days before and after....). Luckily, it didn’t stop the fans from coming; they had found different ways. I had seen CHAMBER only once before, at a spell bounding gig in the Nicolai Church in Utrecht during the Summer Darkness festival 2007, therefore I was really looking forward to a proper CHAMBER concert. However, this wasn’t a normal CHAMBER gig either; front man Marcus Testory had decided to celebrate the coming of spring in this tour.

24th February 2008
L’âme Immortelle, Übermutter & Beyond the Void
It was a sad Sunday evening in Berlin. The concert of L’ÂME IMMORTELLE was originally planned for Kato, but was moved to the ColumbiaClub. God knows why; the amount of people that showed up in the ColumbiaClub could’ve easily fitted in the smaller Kato. As if they were premium rock stars, L’ÂME IMMORTELLE had brought two support bands. And I’m glad they did.

Ragnarök Festival Day 1: SVARTSOT, NORTHER, SKYFORGER, SWORN, TURISAS, Agalloch, Premordial, Searbliss
By now we are celebrating the fifth Ragnarök Festival in 2008. What started as a small one day festival has become a constant festival size in the recent years in spring. It might seem that the "first Pagan metal festival in Germany" will benefit from the still ongoing Viking and Pagan boom of recent years, certainly, also the success lies in the unique line-up which would be brought to us year after year. Bands like UNLEASHED, TURISAS, HELRUNAR, PRIMORDIAL or the scene sizes AGALLOCH,WOLFCHANT and XIV DARK CENTURIES played again this year. The attention of the media came along with the crowds and the public interest.
