Melkweg, Amsterdam, The Netherlands 26th October 2007
Epica, Delain
A sold out Melkweg would open the doors to host two Dutch female fronted metal bands tonight. The recently rebuilt Max hall has a capacity of 1450. Epica just released their new album, The Divine Conspiracy, is touring around Europe, and will visit Mexico and Colombia next month. Delain, a young but successful new band is supporting them for a few shows. Before the opening of the doors, a long row of people were standing outside. And as usual: security had a difficult day by stopping the pushing crowd.

Röhre, Stuttgart, Germany18th October 2007
Pain, Zonaria
I must first confess that I am an absolute fan of PAIN / HYPOCRISY. They are some of my favourite bands so I was very pleased to write the review of this concert. Unfortunately, there was only one flaw; the event should take place at the Röhre in Stuttgart. The Röhre is not well known for their good sound conditions, and all the fans could only hope to get the best sound quality this evening.

Gebläsehalle, Hattingen, Germany23rd October 2007
Apocalyptica, Sturm und Drang, Stam1na
There are not many rock bands on this planet who do not want to be called unique. But only a few deserve this title. APOCALYPTICA from Finland are one of those few. Founded in the early 90s, the band was following its own individual path over the years. First, they presented METALLICA or SLAYER songs on cello during student concerts followed by a gig in a well-known Heavy Metal club which was a total success. Kari Hynninen of Zen Garden Records was in the audience during that night and offered the band a record deal right away. More than one million copies of the first album have been sold. After several albums and co-operations with famous artists such as HIM, now finally the time has come for a new chapter in the band’s history.

Day 1: Doro, Holy Moses, Tourettes, Dylath-leen
The fifth edition of the female fronted metal fest! A great line up this year and they even had a special DVD recording in store for us. The first evening was filled with some of the toughest ladies in metal. Some were very surprised when hearing the voice and then seeing a lady on stage. Who says men rule metal? Not this weekend, that’s for sure!!
