Playlist: Soon on stage - first half of 2024

For many bands we follow here at Unearthed Mirrors, the first live shows of 2024 are approaching - with WATAIN, Lukas Häger, Saturnalia Temple and UnoX hitting the stage already next month, followed by PÅGÅ in early March; Unpure and Xalpen will embark on the Europe Ablaze tour in April/May, also in May are a couple of festivals for Maggot Heart and the quite unique Eros At Arms festival for Concrete Winds.

Here is then a selection of music which will be haunting venues in these upcoming months: you might want to blast again the ones you know already, and we surely recommend getting acquainted with those you might not be very familiar with yet, because although covering very different styles, they all have some really excellent music to offer!

The playlist features:
