Join Dr Sam and Andrew as they visit the very first Hellskinki Metal Festival (yes, note the two insertions of the letter ‘L’). Find out what an extreme metal festival in the heart of one of the most metal countries in the world is like, first hand.
As with all our live reviews, we make a real effort to make you feel as if you might actually be at the event. We cover the daft things that happen around travelling to a music festival in a gonzo-style. We record the crowds, the noise and report on the cool bits and bobs we see that make a good live music event excellent.
