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.
The show was a blast. I can only recommend to check the dates, get a ticket while they are available and go to the show. It is well worth your time and money. I personally believe that next time I will see Manntra in a bigger venue, they are rising and rising and they deserve all their success because it is the result of hard work.
Are you ready for some really different metal? It is not industrial metal and it is not gothic metal. Neither is it power metal nor symphonic metal. Instead, it is a unique mix of all these genres combined with a good portion of folk metal, folkloric Croatian influences and catchy melodies! Welcome to Manntra's War Of The Heathens presented by NoCut Entertainment!
Go and get your tickets and maybe we will meet in front of Captain "Timothy" Bornfleth and his crew, the mighty "Olaf" Bornfleth, "Ughar der schrecklich Durstige" Braatz, "Fabi" Kirschke on hurdy-gurdy "Paulie" Martens. And if he can rely on his crew, we can rely on a perfect show and a barrel of beer. Don't hesitate and set your sails to seek the storm together!
It is Christmas time 2023. Jingle Bells, Whamageddon, mulled wine and maybe a wee bit of snow come with it. But White Christmas is out of sight again. What we have instead are the Eisheilige Nacht Festivals 2023. Take the chance to enjoy this four-band package now.
It is a good tradition in Germany to celebrate the Eisheilige Nacht festivals in December, born by Subway to Sally in 2009, now we celebrate 2023's edition. It presents Manntra, Letzte Instanz, Fiddler's Green and of course Subway To Sally.
It is balancing act on the edge to find the right path between three opposites and even unite them. Like no other band Manntra blindly find and follow this path between metal, folk and catchiness.
