CONCERT REVIEW: Hellripper – Cloak – Sarcator Live at Poppodium 013
Hellripper have steadily been growing in esteem over the past several years, and today they are playing the small stage in 013, just like they did Roadburn 2019. The tour has been on for about a week, but is full steam ahead. Contending with the massive fun fair in Tilburg, makes this week’s shows a little tough. The time schedule had all bands set to play 45-minute sets, with Sarcator entering the stage just 15 minutes after doors open, with 15-minute changeovers. This seems like a Formula 1-level time window, so let’s see if they fully pull it off. It’s speed metal, but this is very tight planning. All of this so the show can end at the timely hour of 10 at night so a party can be held for the fun fair after. Talk about flipping venues!Continue reading
