Lords of the Void II
What a lineup to a black metal festival! Two absolute legends of greek black metal, as well as the italian masters of occult black metal. Needless to say I was stoked to go see them.
Kawir is pagan black metal, using a lot of interesting instruments like a huge sea shell, some kind of bag pipes etc. I must say for me this was the best band that night. I love the concept of their new album, their songs were very driving, pounding, full of natural energy. Best thing, after I leave the concert hall, I discover that my colleague actually plays drums in Kawir! :D Of course I had to buy their new album then, featuring my colleague on drums.
Varathron was awesome, too. It might not be exactly the style I enjoy the most, but live it works really well. Their performance was great and with Necroabyssious, they have a great frontman. They are also mentioned alongside Rotting Christ as probably the oldest greek black metal band.
Mortuary Drape was on late and sadly the audience was a bit tired already. Some had left to catch the last train or bus and so the place was not as packed as before. It was not bad, Mortuary Drape are also legends and have been around for ages. It just was not really my thing that evening. The singer had a small speakers pult in front of him and he would rock back and forth, nearly knocking that over.
Let's hope then for another lords of the void with more interesting acts!
