Concert review: I Prevail, Set It Off & Kid Bookie, Mitsubishi Electric Halle Düsseldorf, 11 May 2024

Posted on admin

When I saw I Prevail in 2023, I was fairly unimpressed. To be fair, I was there for the support act (Blind Channel), and I got ill before the second show I saw of them. Considering this, I decided to give them a second chance and I got tickets for their tour this year almost as soon as they went on sale. I wasn’t too positive about the show when they announced shortly before the tour started that they would have to do it without Brian. So to be honest, even on the road there I was still almost convinced that the evening wouldn’t go too well. Let’s see if I was right.

Concert review: The Warning & Conquer Divide, Live Music Hall Cologne, 17 April 2024

Posted on admin

Yet another concert I visited to see the support act. This tour was Conquer Divide’s first tour ever in Europe. I’m a big fan of their music since their feature in Electric Callboy’s Fuckboi, so I was super excited to hear that they would finally play shows in Germany. Only that those shows were sold out before they were even announced and I can tell that this was the most painful struggle for tickets ever, worse than Bad Omens or BMTH, because while in the latter cases, most resale tickets were just ridiculously overpriced, there were almost no resale tickets for this Cologne show at all. In the end we somehow managed to get one ticket and one spot on the guestlist, so here we are with a little concert review. Little because I honestly can’t say much about The Warning.

Concert review: Normandie, As December Falls & Self Deception, Technikum Munich, 16 March 2024

Posted on admin

How far do you go to see a band you love play a set of 30 minutes? In that case: a 6 hour train ride all the way to Munich. I know, there are people who travel with the band, but I’m sure none of those are full-time teachers. So for me and my circumstances, this is quite a distance to travel for only a concert – and I think so far this has been one of the furthest trips I’ve made for a concert exclusively. Anyway, this was the second show of this tour that I attended. I was also at their show in Cologne, but since I had only recovered from a cold and spent the entire rest of the show after Self Deception’s set sitting in a corner with a massive headache and almost unable to breathe, I didn’t write a concert review for it. This time,

Concert review: Our Mirage, Oceans & Maelføy, Don’t Panic Essen, 9 March 2024

Edit: Parts of this review were written shortly after the show, parts of it about 4 weeks later due to lack of time – so this is a mess. And I still haven’t finished editing my photos, so they will be added later.  Second round of this tour. I can tell straight away that this will be less of a concert review – because this time I got a photo pass (for the first time – or second, somehow, if we count that one time Self Deception just allowed me to bring a better camera) and since I was very busy moving around to take photos I didn’t take much in of the concert. A pity, but also a great opportunity.

Concert review: Architects, Spiritbox & Loathe, Halle Münsterland Münster, 27 January 2024

Posted on pahakeijukainen

Sometimes you just buy concert tickets for the sake of going to a concert I guess. And this one wasn’t even a tactically clever choice. When we read that Architects would play their only show in Germany in Münster, which is not far from where we live, we decided to go there although none of us is that much of an Architects fan. I occasionally have them in my Spotify mixtapes and I honestly don’t know many of their songs, but we’d also seen Spiritbox at Full Force before and thought they were cool, so why not? So we bought the tickets and went for a surprise.
