Monkey3 – Welcome To The Machine

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
I am not very much into the world of instrumental albums and bands but Monkey3 blew me away. Welcome to the machine is a perfect soundtrack for the film you create when you close your eyes. Leave reality and let your visions come true in your inner eyes. Let your imagination rule your thoughts and your mind. Wake up and compare this fiction with reality. Is it so far away?

Lindsay Schoolcraft – Lovelorn and Hopesick

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
I really love the arrangements of each song. I also like the idea behind the album, because some melodies and lyrics developed during countless Patreon online-meetings between Lindsay and her supporters. Of course, the whole album with its string arrangements is far from being True Metal, but what counts is that all of these people, who are involved, from Patreon to producer met Lindsay due to common love for Metal music. The album is a true gem and a perfect sample of the Metal Way Of Life and what metal is all about without including one single heavy guitar riff.

Burning Witches – The Dark World Tour

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
It is impressive how much better Burning Witches become from album to album. The evolution of the band is amazing. Laura’s vocals were about perfect, rough and to the point, the result of endless practicing, experience, training and discipline. Every time a member left the band, no matter if for good or bad reasons, the next one made the band even better. Especially Courtney is such a gem in this case, a real jewel of a guitarist, precise to the point. I believe, she was the last brick, Burning Witches needed for the next couple of years. She fits perfectly.

Delain – Illumishade – live 2024

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
It has been quite a while since I last enjoyed Dutch Delain. I simply needed time to come over the loss of Merel and Charlotte. It finally led to a completely new line-up of the band with founder and keyboarder Martijn Westerholt remaining the only surviving original member. Support band of this tour is no other than Swiss shooting stars Illumishade around vocalist Fabienne Erni and guitarist Jonas Wolf of Eluveitie

Chatting with Sonia of Cobra Spell

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
As promised, here is the second interview with Cobra Spell, this time with founder and lead guitarist Sonia Anubis. Most of you might also know her from her fantastic work with Burning Witches and Crypta. We will of course talk about Cobra Spell and the album "666". But we will also touch on other, more personal topics, technical guitar topics and talk about one of our mutual favourite bands.
