    Gig Review: Ghosts of War

    With every dark beat pulsating through my body, I morph more and more into a vampire. And not of the sparkly variety. The Anne Rice sex-on-wheels variety. Walking through the misty darkness, the venue, The Capitol Theatre in Pretoria, actually feels like a living being, encapsulating you. It was one of the first atmospheric style

    Gig Review – Battle for True Metal, Nameless Pub

    NOTE: Due to personal integrity, I will attempt to write this review without using the word “brutal”. We arrived at Nameless Pub (fondly known as Shameless in the local scene) in Somerset West just after 20:00, early for most metal heads, but this was a special night. It was the return of Agro to Cape

    Gandalf’s – Breaking a Decade

    Gandalf’s has now celebrated 11 years of bone-snapping success and neck-breaking parties and has proved that it will keep growing from strength to strength. It truly caters for all entertainment and never excludes anyone who wants to have a night out to remember (or forget.) Boldly put, it’s most definitely the only place of its

  4. Bulletscript @ The Halloween Slaughter

    Gig Review – Halloween, Slaughtered!

    As daylight dimmed on Saturday night, we set out to the Purple Turtle; nestled in the heart of Cape town’s CBD, for a night of metal! I had never been to the ‘Turtle prior to this event, and I was pleasantly surprised. I thought to myself, “Hell yeah! Metal in the city!” First up was

    Gig Review – Fun Toy, Wildernessking and Ark Synesis – 7 Oct 2011, ROAR

    The night started off rather awkwardly with Fun Toy delivering what seems to be – from a strictly metalhead’s point of view – disorientating music for zombies. Even though it sounded to me like something a 3 year old could do on a mixing table, some people actually seemed to like it. “This is ass.

  6. Haggis & Bong

    Gig Review – Piping Hot Metal @ ROAR

    The place, R.O.A.R. What more can be said other than that most regular patrons of Gandalfs Observatory will know, there will always be three dance floors of chaos, drink specials that come straight out of the 90s and a live venue that boasts great sound and lighting for any discerning outsider who may think otherwise.

    Gig Review Smoke, Dust & Whiskey Tour 1 & 2 @ 99 FM Playhouse Theater Windhoek Namibia

    The “Smoke, Dust & Whiskey Tour” was a two-show production showcasing bands and individual artists from various musical backgrounds and styles, all going on a border-crossing tour from Cape Town to Windhoek. You may be asking yourself “why are you posting this review on a metal bands-only website?” but here’s the thing, the members in

    Metal4Africa – Winterfest `11 Review

    This year’s Winterfest was another great success by the Metal4Africa team for the Cape Town scene. Upon arriving already fuelled by an excited party bus full of metal fans; amped to bang some heads. Alcohol seeping into the veins, it was straight into the action. Catching up with friends not often seen and holding beer
