Concert Review LOVEX 19/05/2007




Gig review Lovex – Cologne, 19 May 2007

19 May 2007, Lovex had their first headlining gig at Underground, in Cologne, Germany. Lovex is a relatively new name on the German rock scene, but all the same the gig had sold out.

By the sound of it, support act Kind Im Magen did a great job warming up the audience, but they couldn’t convince us.

As if the temperature inside wasn’t high enough before, things really heated up once the six band members entered the stage. The band was very energetic and full of confidence. Every now and then, singer Theon missed his cue, but that was very well anticipated by the rest of the band, so that many a fan didn’t even notice the hitch.

The crowd went wild from the first note, with peaks during Anyone, Anymore and Guardian Angel, the two singles released in Germany so far.

An enjoyable night out.
