Kukuun, Hamburg, Germany 20th April 2019
Goethes Erben - Kammerkonzerte 2019
GOETHES ERBEN are sure one of the classics of the gothic scene. Founded 1989, they were important pioneers of Neue Deutsche Todeskunst with their unique style blending music, voice and theatrical elements. In 2007 GOETHES ERBEN played two last shows before a long break. Luckily, Oswald Henke revived the project for their 25th anniversary in 2013 and after that they became more and more active again, even though this time without Mindy Kumbalek who had been a core member of the band for most of the time. Nonetheless, there was a whole music theatre called ‘Menschenstille’ in 2015 and in 2018 GOETHES ERBEN published a new album called ‘Am Abgrund’. So, GOETHES ERBEN are far from just being a dusty classic. Instead, they are a band which is very alive and actively exploring new musical paths.

Turbinenhalle, Oberhausen, Germany13th April 2019
Impericon Festival 2019 with Holding Absence, Get The Shot, Alpha Wolf, Fit For A King, Counterparts, Heart Of A Coward, Deez Nuts, Emmure, Obey The Brave, Nasty, Being As An Ocean, Rise Of The Northstar, Bury Tomorrow, The Black Dahlia Murder, Callejon, Any Given Day, Stick To Your Guns
This April, your favourite merchandise company IMPERICON has opened the (indoor) festival season in style. And boy did they pack a punch. Europe’s biggest festival club tour has signed up so many big names for the 9th edition of their festival that the biggest challenge was certainly to decide which band to see on one of the two stages of the Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen. I decided to cover mainly the bands on the larger Monster Stage, as the stage times overlapped considerably and switching between the stages was not so easy, as the festival was completely sold out with approximately 4,500 visitors. But still, we have pictures of all bands for you!
