Manntra Titans 2026 at Das Bett
It is Saturday evening, the day before International Women’s Day, and I am going to bed early. More precisely, I will drive to bed tonight. 'Das Bett' – German for 'bed' – is the venue where we will be enjoying ourselves instead of getting too much sleep: Manntra from Croatia are on their Titans Tour, supported by German goth-dark metalists Wisborg.
RMD’z Warm-Up-Party
The year is almost two months old and time is flying by. 28 February is finally here: the Rock & Metal Day's Warm-Up Party is taking place at the clubhouse of the organising association, M.A.DE. for Kids e. V. Many guests have 'threatened' to come, so it won't just be club members there — one could truly say that this is a very well-attended event. Two excellent bands will perform live: Tinnitus Attavk and Blessed Child.

Nachtblut – Todschick Part II
Today, 12th February 2026, just before the escalating final of street carnival, we meet at Colos-Saal for something completely different. Colos-Saal is a club with a capacity of around 600 people, and is located very centrally in Aschaffenburg, close to the railway station. We experience two remarkable, even though very different German bands in a quite sold-out concert tonight. Welcome to the tour kick-off of Nachtblut's Todschick Tour Part II!
Nanowar of Steel – Finest Comedy Metal
When Nanowar of Steel announced their Motorcultor Festival Across Europe Tour 2026 in the middle of last year, they listed Uuhai from Mongolia as co-headliners. Alongside these two bands, a further seven support acts were scheduled for the 27 dates over 31 days. An additional band was added later, bringing the total to eight: Lone Survivor, Morphium, Deus Ex Machina, Cold Snap, Defecto, Vaughan, Lady Ahnabel and My Own Ghost.
Burning Witches – and Kings – 2026
Burning Witches are currently on their European 'Witches and Kings' tour and back on German soil. Tonight, they will be performing at Kammgarn in Kaiserslautern. The show sold out, so it was moved from the Cotton Club to the larger Casino to accommodate more metalheads, and even this larger venue was very crowded.

Live: New Year’s Bash Vol. 3
As some of you may have noticed, I finished the 2025 concert year with the Swiss band Fire Rose's Finale Furioso at KIK in Sissach. I told you about traditions, so here we go again: we will begin the 2026 concert year with a Swiss headliner at MystericA’s New Year's Bash Vol. 3 at Eventhall Airport Obertraubling. It's a bit of a family reunion because members of the Rock & Metal Day'z festival crew will either be performing on stage or watching the three bands from the front. All of them have already played on this cosy festival and one will perform as this year’s Friday night headliner…
Sunday Of The Dead – Memento Muribuntis
A few months ago, on my way to Denmark on holiday, my co-driver put on some songs that I had never heard before. He explained that these were nearly finished demos of his band’s album, due to be released later that year. These songs caught my interest and more, so here it is: Obscuro's Christmas review of Doom Death Metal from Würzburg.
