(8/10) Wovenwar got on my personal radar when they opened for In Flames on their 2014 tour. That was almost to the point two years ago and I can remember very well the power the guys unleashed. Their music electrified the audience in the 013 in Tilburg....

To my surprise German fun punk band Abstürzende Brieftauben are quite active again. There's a new album and the guys are on tour as well. Probabaly not pure heavy metal but a lot of fun connected to some memories. 04.11.16 Würzburg Posthalle // Support...
