  • The standstill behind ASSUMPTION’s ‘Paradox Of The Arrow’

    “Discovering Zeno’s paradox of the arrow allowed us to finally give our turmoil a lyrical voice.” For Giorgio Trombino, the inspiration behind ASSUMPTION’s new title track came from a period when the band’s future was uncertain. Problems surrounding the production and release of their previous album, Hadean Tides, had left the musicians feeling trapped in […]

  • Der Bloody X-Mas Markt kommt nach Hamburg!

    Am 20. und 21. November 2026 feiert der Bloody X-Mas Markt seine Premiere in Hamburg. Auf dem Gelände zwischen der UKE-Blutspende und dem Universitären Herz- und Gefäßzentrum des UKE entsteht ein außergewöhnlicher Weihnachtsmarkt, der Musik, Gemeinschaft und soziales Engagement miteinander verbindet.

    Im Mittelpunkt der Veranstaltung steht eine große Blutspendeaktion. Gleichzeitig erwartet die Besucherinnen und Besucher ein abwechslungsreiches Programm mit Live-Musik, winterlichen Spezialitäten, einer Tombola und zahlreichen Begegnungen innerhalb der Metal-Community. Der Eintritt ist frei.

    Für die passende musikalische Stimmung sorgen bereits bestätigte Acts wie HeavySaurus und Subway To Sally. Weitere Künstlerinnen und Künstler sowie besondere Gäste werden in den kommenden Wochen bekannt gegeben.

    Gemeinsam Leben retten

    Mit dem Bloody X-Mas Markt möchten die Veranstalter auf die wichtige Rolle von Blutspenden aufmerksam machen. Blutkonserven werden täglich benötigt, gleichzeitig sinkt die Zahl der Spenderinnen und Spender. Die Aktion soll deshalb dazu motivieren, aktiv zu werden und mit einer Blutspende Leben zu retten.

    Darüber hinaus unterstützt der Markt einen guten Zweck: Die Erlöse kommen dem Childhood-Haus Hamburg zugute, einer Einrichtung des UKE, die Kinder und Jugendliche unterstützt, die Gewalt oder Vernachlässigung erfahren haben.

     

    Wacken-Spirit trifft Weihnachtszauber

    Der Bloody X-Mas Markt bringt den einzigartigen Zusammenhalt der Metal-Community in die Hansestadt. Mit dabei sind auch bekannte Gesichter der Szene, darunter Marcus Bischoff von Heaven Shall Burn, offizieller Schirmherr der Wacken-Blutspendeinitiative.

    Die Veranstaltung richtet sich ausdrücklich an alle Menschen, unabhängig davon, ob sie Blut spenden können oder nicht. Wer Solidarität zeigen, die Aktion unterstützen oder einfach Teil dieser besonderen Gemeinschaft sein möchte, ist herzlich willkommen.

    Words: Matthew Williams

    Alas, all good things must come to end, and after many years of enjoying their stoner/doom/psych shows, including Brant Bjork Trio, 1000mods and Sasquatch, Riffolution Promotions is drawing the curtains for one final time. I’ve attended many of their events around the city, including 2024’s Riffolution Festival, and to go out with a bang, they are bringing back one band from that weekend who didn’t quite make it.

    With the recent revelation about his battle with testicular cancer, Riffolution Promotions Danny Godwin, bassist of Ritual King, has confirmed that the final send off will see all profits donated to The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for the hard work and support they gave him. A truly worthwhile cause, I’m sure that we all agree.

    On a day full of emotion, they have pulled together an eight-band stoner/doom festival that will send a spooky shiver across the city on Halloween. Starting with the power of Bradford’s Iron Rat all the way through to headliners Elephant Tree, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. There are 3 bands whom I never seen before, psychedelic stoner group Vassal, Brighton’s slowed down doomsters Sea Bastard and from over the Pennines, Hundred Year Old Man, who will supply the post metal mastery that are renown for.

    Heading up the local contingent is Under, who certainly aren’t afraid to push the boundaries of sounds and song structure, as demonstrated on their latest release “What Happened in Roundwood” and of course it wouldn’t be a Riffolution Promotions event unless Ritual King were playing. I’m sure that they’ll receive a big round of applause when their unique brand of psych rock and heavy stoner rock gets the party started as their grooves reverberate around Rebellion.

    If you’ve survived the mid-afternoon/early evening frivolities, then get set for the final two pieces of the jigsaw, as we get a double dose from our London brethren, in the form of doomy sludgesters Slabdragger, who I’m genuinely excited about seeing again, followed by headliners Elephant Tree. It’s great to see them back in Manchester, especially after they had to pull out of the 2024 Riffolution Festival, but having seen them more recently at Desertfest, they are definitely one to watch and will wrap up a day where we come to celebrate good music and friendship, but more importantly, we come to celebrate life.
