Interview with Kyo Calati (MindAhead)
MindAhead is an Italian Progressive Metal who are set to release a new album on the 28th of October. MindAhead already released singles “The Last Stand” and “What You Are”, with the former being released with a music video. As we wait for the sophomore album from the Italian band that will resume the band’s story that began with their debut, we interviewed vocalist Kyo Calati and asked her about her band’s music as well as her take on different industry and social issues. Enjoy this wonderful chat with Kyo Calati!

Say Her Name: Mahsa Amini
Nothing shakes the foundations of criminal regimes more than the defiance of those who they have considered weak, even if the rebel was killed. The phantom of Mahsa Amini’s rebellion will forever echo in the halls of patriarchy, haunting every tyrant and every misogynist. Say her name. Keep her flame alive so patriarchy would burn. Mahsa Amini.

Interview with Effy Gold (The Effigy)
Just like black with never go out of fashion, the same thing for gothic metal: it will always be a hot deal, and I am very happy to be the host of interviewing this gothic musician and composer from Australia, Effy Gold.

Interview with Anna Gołębiowska (Sighwind)
Ladies and Gentlemen, today I got you a young band from Poland, who are like pepper: small but strong. Luckily, I had the chance to follow them from day one and I can tell you these people are really hard-working and motivated and truly love making music. Since they conquered the music streaming platforms, I have been wanting to introduce them to our beloved Audience.

Volturian + Infected Rain LIVE REPORT
Concerts during the week are not rare, but this is my first time attending a show on a Wednesday. And for FemMetal, we had the pleasure of seeing two breathtaking bands ready to make us pass an unforgettable night. As usual, I partnered with our photographer Silvio Colombo to make this report. I would also like to thank Vertigo for their excellent assistance!

Venus Mountains + Siska + Pretty Boy Floyd LIVE REPORT
When it comes to music, every one of us has had our influences and artists that shaped our taste in this fabulous art. While talking to our photographer Silvio Colombo he mentioned that he used to listen to the glam rock bands that made the history of “Sunset Boulevard” in California, including Pretty Boy Floyd. So when they arrived here in Italy for their European tour, we hightailed over to Bergamo and saw them live. This is what happened!
