LA-based fairy doom trio Faetooth  are currently on their headline European tour and on February 24th they performed at Feierwerk, in Munich. They were joined by the post-metal four-piece Coltaine , who set the vibe for the night with their opening set. Once Coltaine  stepped on stage, the murmur of the crowd was replaced by a combination of blackgaze, atmospheric psychedelia and post-rock melancholy. Their set was built on thick, distorted riffs and a raw and intense vocal d

The venue had been changed from PICA to 170 Russell which was a welcome changed as the new venue leans towards a more intimate show.  The emo anthems were already pumping as you walked down the stairs and people had already secured prime positions on the barrier well before the bands started.

People had unique hairstyles, dark makeup, and outfits that felt very intentional. It felt like everyone there understood the artist and the music, and they expresse

Meg Smith opened the night with bright purple, blue, and pink lights filling the stage. She wore an angel costume that perfectly fit her vibe. The crowd was only half-full when she came on, but her energy filled the room. She danced across the stage and stood at the mic to play guitar and sing. She had a constant connection to the crowd. She smiled at fans, pointed at people singing along, and had small moments that made everything feel personal. Even the people who did not k

On February 11th, 2026 British rock band Hot Milk brought their explosive and chaotic act to the Melkweg, one of the most iconic venues in the city. You wouldn’t be able to tell that it was the end of their tour, as the room was charged with pure energy. The night started with a powerful performance by the opening act, a Midlands based hardcore band: Last Hounds. The lead singer Mike Skelcher had no trouble hyping up the crowd, performing song after song with intensity that h
