Concert review: Bloodywood, Calva Louise & Demonic Resurrection, Live Music Hall Cologne, 6 March 2025

One of my most awaited shows in 2025: Last time Bloodywood toured in Europe I missed them and I regretted it dearly. The Nu Metal band from New-Delhi were far on top of my must-see list for a while now. I have a soft spot for Folk Metal and since Bloodywood includes a nice amount of folkish elements in their music – and since I’m a sucker for Bollywood movies – they’re exactly my jam. So I bought tickets as soon as the tour was announced and here’s my little opinion on the show.

Concert review: Turmion Kätilöt & King Satan, Club Volta Cologne, 19 January 2025

This concert was a long awaited one. I’ve been a fan of Turmion Kätilöt for about 16 years, roughly. Back then, a friend of mine sent me the first episode of an animated online series called Bunnykill. The background music struck me immediately: a heavy industrial metal song in Finnish. It was Turmion Kätilöt’s second single Verta Ja Lihaa, which then made me dig up more music of that band. I fell for Turmion Kätilöt and kept listening to them. I missed their last headline tour with stops in Germany, so this time I was lucky to squeeze one of the shows into my concert schedule. They came in tow with another Finnish band that combines heavy music with electronic sounds: King Satan were a perfect match for that evening. Here’s how it was in more detail.
