Despite all the common epic in their songs, Monkey3 always have several jokers in their sleeves, which first appears like "What is...

I saw them in 2022 on 17 years of SOL and it was like a buffet with a lot styles which didn´t fit together. "Flowers of Death" is way more homogeneous and an organic whole.

Nordic dark folk takes me to countries, harmonies and attitudes which are really exotic for me. Actually I´m more oriented in a southern way of life, but this nordic emptiness reflects the same emptiness which I found on my trips through the Sahara and other deserts. So following this, Nytt Land is a kind of nordic desert rock. Check the review.

It took a while to get some heavy grooving and punchy metal instead of hearing all the time Max Cavalera´s countless releases. Burn in Blood put a bit of Slipknot brutality into their mighty grooving metal. So this was one of the first bands this year which did something interesting.

I had a band called damage done between 1997 and 2002. We founded the band as friends. I left the band in 2002 because I wanted to play live and fulfill my musical dream to do some Motörhead influenced hardcore. In 2012, I received a call from my drummer from damage done for jamming a little bit in his rehearsal room. I took a bass, plugged it in, took a look to my band and then we played for hours in one flow. That´s what happened with Dozer after their around ten year long hiatus.
