Brunch and I flew to Helsinki for the weekend to see Blasphemy, Black Witchery, Archgoat, Revenge and Proclamation.
Our flight attendant was David Tura.
Our generous host was Deeli....
...and his wife...
...and his son. All total heroes who went above and beyond for us - even giving up their bed!
Check French's blog soon for some footage. He's a filmer now.
Insane street spots.
THE best pop-up book you will ever see. Mind bogglingly tech.
Chill out Fos!
I handled this beast.
We watched this film about some crackhead on a skateboard too - they had a premiere at the skatepark.
This is how I felt about the animations. And the music too actually. And some of the team.

The set dresser will go on to big things.
Anyway - THE GIG! Proclamation smashed it as ever. I'm worried about the bass player - he looked about 3 stone lighter than when I saw him last.
I met a Finnish dude outside with French's Krisiun shirt on.
So I introduced them. The usual Bromance ensued.
Bit too much light on stage I reckon. Black Witchery were intense anyway. if you don't like them you can fuck off to church and suck the vicar's cock you christian pricks.
Blood Oath! Best song ever!
Archgoat on home turf! Brought their own pig heads too.
J. Read and the boneheads.
Then the Gods Of War themselves, BLASPHEMY! Once in a lifetime experience? Not made a record since '93 or played since 2001 so don't expect them to play at your "metal" fest next summer. Fuck you if you missed out.
Black Winds was incredible/terrifying.
