Saturnalia Temple, Lukas Häger and UnoX live in Brussels - moments from the show

This past Saturday, Saturnalia Temple have played in Brussels the release show for their album "Paradigm Call", alongside Dread Sovereign, Lukas Häger, and UnoX.

It was also the debut of Pelle and Gottfrid Åhman as part of the new live line-up of Saturnalia Temple, so definitely a special occasion - since the change in the line-up was announced some months ago, there has certainly been a lot of anticipation to see this exceptional trio on stage!

So we are gathering here some first impressions which have appeared on the web so far (unfortunately, IG stories disappear after 24 hours, so the clips which were posted in that -ugh- format, can't be accessed anymore).


Hopefully there will be more, including some of Lukas Häger and UnoX, too; we will be updating this post if anything else appears in the next days.

Saturnalia Temple's new album "Paradigm Call" is out on March 1st, 2024 on Listenable Records - available at this link!

Focus On: UnoX

We are starting this new series of posts to highlight, one at a time, the musicians and the bands who will play live in the next months: in this first post, we begin with UnoX, as they are indeed the first who will play live this year, with one show coming up already next week.

UnoX is the union of Uno Bruniusson's eclectic percussions with Xrysafeniax ' electronic sounds: both were already active in their respective projects (Uno, beside drumming with Maggot Heart, CV Vision, and others, also has his solo project Perkwuno, and Xrysafeniax plays in her duo with Alexandra Maciá, Phallucipher),  when they decided to join their musical skills and ideas and venture in a more experimental territory, to create with rhythms and sound waves the equivalent of a psychedelic experience.

A new show has been announced for UnoX, the experimental project of Uno Bruniusson (In Solitude, Maggot Heart, Perkwuno and many more)and XrysafeniaX (Phallucipher): this time they will bring their electronic sounds and patterns in Athens, on January 26th, at Blackness Filled My Ears, alongside Lycurgus and with a DJ set by ΔreamCcore.
