Since the release of their first record in 2011, I’ve had one obsession : seeing KVELERTAK live. Firstly, because the Norwegian sestet has cranked the level up a notch with...

SUNGRAZER + THE MACHINE + LIBIDO FUZZ @ Saint Ex (Bordeaux, 02.18.13)

by

Bordeaux on a Monday night, two fine stoner bands : it may sound quite illogical, but I was afraid. Afraid that people wouldn’t show up, and that these incredibly talented...

CANCER BATS @ Le Krakatoa (Bordeaux, 01.12.13)

RED FANG + HARK + DRAWERS @ Glazart (Paris,11/29/12)

RED FANG + DRAWERS @ Bordeaux, France (07.17.12)

RED FANG, one of my favorite bands, playing a gig in my town ? Even if I’m not a worshiper, I would definitely say it feels like the coming of the Messiah on Earth to me....

It was their first time in my dear hometown : yes, I’ve been waiting forever, but KARMA TO BURN finally played in Bordeaux. If you read this blog, you know that I also...
