Behind the Scenes: EMFA 2020 – our first professionally recorded live show ever.

Apr 27, 2021

Due to the COVID-19 related restrictions, we were not able to play any concert in front of a big crowd in 2020. Luckily though, we had the chance to be part of the EUROPEAN METAL FESTIVAL ALLIANCE 2020 (on August 7th, 2020), an online event that allowed us to present our first professionally recorded live show to everyone who never had the chance to see us live before.

The EUROPEAN METAL FESTIVAL ALLIANCE was a union of 13 independent metal festivals across Europe who joined forces to create a music platform for both bands and fans in a year without concerts and festivals.

Here are a few impressions from the recording session:
