M'era Luna 2011

The M'era Luna is a festival of goth, metal and industrial music. It is held annually on the second weekend of every August, in Hildesheim, Germany at Flugplatz Hildesheim-Drispenstedt, a former British Army airbase.

Waiting for M'era Luna 2012

Somehow this festival always manages to get the best bands. Last year it was Apocalyptica, this year it's Placebo. None of them played at the other festival we have been to, so there is definitely something special about this event!

I don't think it comes as a surprise that Viona's Victorian Picnic in the Clara Zetkin Park is our favourite WGT event. Held on Friday, for many the first day at the festival, the picnic showcases the best of what alternative fashion has to offer.

It seems the weather gods appreciate this opulent event, as we have never experienced bad weather the three times we have attended the picnic. Although some of the costumes seemed a bit warm in the sun and heat, I think everyone dressed in huge gowns with long trains appreciates the lack of rain.

Eisbrecher, 25.5.12, Wave Gotik Treffen

Even though Eisbrecher headlined day 1 of WGT, they are a new aquaintance to us. We listened to a couple of songs before leaving for Leipzig, and decided that this was something to check out. We like music with heavy guitars, and Eisbrecher delivers on that point.

It's the 9th of June, we are at Agra. Smoke fills the stage, and at 18.35 Bruno from Das Ich welcomes us all to the 20th Wave Gotik Treffen! 20 years is no small feat, but the festival just seems to grow and attract more and more people.

They say rain is the typical festival weather. The last years, Castle Party has mostly been spared of this, but this time the weather had it in for us all.

As steampunk rises as a emerging trend in the alternative scene, DraculaClothing becomes more and more popular. At this years Wave Gotik Treffen, we saw 24 people in corsets, jewelry and accessories from the brand.

Being Norwegians, we just had to go to the Apoptygma Berzerk concert when they played at Prague's Lucerna Music bar. Press passes were secured through a mutual friend, and we were really looking forward to the show.

We arrived early, only to see that our friends were already there.

Oh, Castle Party, let me count the ways I love thee!

No, I won't count anything, but what I will do is let you know exactly what's so special about this tiny (in comparison to WGT) festival in the tiny (in comparison to everything) town of Bolkow, Poland.

You know those things you should do at least once during your lifetime? Well, we did one of them this spring. We went to the Carneval in Venice!
