Previous vacation time was not just about carols and eggnog this 12 months. For symphonic steel lovers (in particular below at FNR), it was the gift that stored on providing. Back again in December, an announcement bought us all rather fired up and landed in our inbox: a tour that includes not a single, but four extraordinary bands – a desire lineup for any symphonic, people, and ability metalheads in Europe.

We’re no strangers to the whirlwind of live performance and festival year prep that will come at the close of the 12 months heading into the new, but this tour experienced a exclusive type of electrical power all over it. It wasn’t just the prospect of capturing theses incredible bands dwell it was the sheer power of the bands coming together. We’re chatting a symphonic steel powerhouse, and permit me convey to you, excitement was brewing.

The tour kicked off in Birmingham and like a conquering tide of melodic steel, the bands came ashore in their longboats in London on the eve of St. Patrick’s Day. Leaves’ Eyes arrived with Metalite, Northtale, and Catalyst Crime correct there alongside them. For me, it was like witnessing a gathering of our most loved steel clans.

I’ve been hooked on Metalite and have beloved their latest album. Viewing them provide that power to the phase was thrilling. Leaves’ Eyes have been a pressure to be reckoned with, tearing as a result of a killer setlist in aid of their latest album, ‘Myths of Fate.’ For lovers like me who’ve been waiting ages to see them dwell, this was a evening to remember. Last but not least finding to witness their functionality was properly truly worth the wait around. And let’s not forget that Leaves’ Eyes have a historical past of crafting albums that have produced it in our top rated spots on our “best of” lists at the finish of the calendar year. Their unwavering consistency is definitely some thing unique.

That packed group at the Dome was a just a showcase to the collective power of the night – these bands know how to pump up their viewers. This live performance is a total-blown symphonic metallic knowledge. If this phenomenal lineup is coming everywhere in the vicinity of you, trust me, do regardless of what it requires to get a ticket. They’ve continue to bought a couple of far more dates in March ahead of wrapping up the tour in Berlin on April 13th – capture them even though you can.
