League Of Distortion - “Galvanize Tour 2024”

LEAGUE OF DISTORTION, one of Modern Metal’s most exciting rising stars, brought their “Galvanize Tour 2024” to Berlin’s Cassiopeia on December 6. The German band, formed during the COVID-19 pandemic by vocalist Anna “Ace” Brunner and guitarist Jim “Arro” Müller, has quickly gained recognition for their empowering lyrics and genre-defying sound. Promoting their sophomore album ‘Galvanize’, the night was an energetic celebration of resilience and rebellion. Unfortunately, I arrived just in time for the main act, as illness prevented me from catching the supporting band, ANGRA, whose progressive Power Metal set was said to energize the crowd earlier that evening.
