La banda finlandesa Ikinä guardó un minuto de silencio durante su actuación en el Hellsinki Metal Festival en memoria de las mujeres víctimas de violencia.

La banda también habló sobre el aumento de los casos de violencia y muertes relacionadas con mujeres, y destacó su colaboración con Naisten Linja, organización finlandesa que ofrece apoyo a mujeres y niñas.

“Despierta. Cuidemos los unos de los otros y seamos amables.”

Un momento de silencio dentro de un festival de metal para recordar a quienes ya no están.

I spent lots of August in Finland and have just posted a write up of those trips (link in bio and in comments).

The visits were partly to learn about how metal is seen in the place known as the "Capital of Metal". And they were partly because some ridiculously strong festival line ups brought lots of the bands I needed to learn from into Helsinki over the space of a few weeks. Blackbraid, Mawiza, Iotunn, Unearthly Rites and many others in the same place was a chance I had to take, and I learnt more from the mix of interviews and informal chats with musicians and festival organisers than I could have hoped.

The photos contain some of the bands from Hellsinki Metal Festival and Helsinki Deathfest - including Finnish bands like Ikinä, Numento, and Cyan Kicks as well global musicians including Opeth, Nergal, and Carcass.

I always like to do the research that involves reading books and articles in situ, so it was great to be able to growing body of writing on Finnish metal scenes, by metal scholars like Charlotte Doesberg (on the Kalevala in metal) and Toni Matti Karjalainen (on the formation of the Finnish metal scene), while out in forests and on rivers among ospreys and eagles (I hope Blackbraid, Mawiza & Iotunn might've approved).

I came back with a strong sense of how localised the themes and scenes of metal in Finland actually are, and how much less there's a unifying sense of Finnishness than I'd expected. I also hadn't realised before travelling just how suddenly the links between metal and Finnishness had emerged around the start of the century (and how completely unforeseeable they would've been before).

I also came back having seen some of the best sets I've ever witnessed - and with new appreciation (thanks to Mawiza especially) of the global power of depictions in metal of specific places and the apparently localised outlooks attached to them.

As well as posting a write up on these things, a session I recorded for a podcast based in Helsinki - 10,000 Hours of Indie - just went live (link also in comments & bio). Can't wait to get back to Finland to keep trying to fathom a place that still feels to me like a metal enigma.

Oi kesä. Olit niin kaunis.
Ja kaikki ihmiset ympärillä. Oon jotenkin koko ajan sellaisen liikutuksen kynnyksellä, jossa toisinaan ihan kiemurtelee. Erilaisia kyyneleitä, jotka välillä löytää tien ulos ja välillä ei. Johtunee isosti teoksesta, jota juuri nyt esitetään töissä.
Nyt just tuntuu tärkeältä viipyä tässä ilossa, joka löytyi kameran rullaa selaillessa.
Ihmeellisiä juttuja💚

For Ikinä, 2026 has been a defining year. First came the release of Valkyria, an intense and emotional album. Then, at Hellsinki Metal Festival, they delivered a standout performance joined by The Choir of Hecate, whose dramatic vocal layers amplified the band’s already explosive energy.
After the show, Katariina Sorsa and Tuuli Paju sat down with The Offering to reflect on the adrenaline of the performance, the intense month of preparation leading up to it, and the importance of celebrating womanhood, alongside the realities of motherhood in the music industry and the persistent gatekeepers of metal. They also opened up about the journey behind their latest album and what 2027 may hold for Ikinä.

Hellsinki Metal Festival 2026 🖤

¡Hola! Me he dado cuenta de que tengo muuuuchos meses sin subir nada por aquí, así que decidí compartir una pequeña actualización.

Muchos de ustedes saben que a parte de otras cosas también soy artista visual, pero quizá no sepan que mis piezas de arte han estado en varias exhibiciones.

Hoy, les quiero platicar que hace un par de semanas tuve la oportunidad de ser una de las artistas invitadas al #DarkArtGallery de @HellsinkiMetalFestival en Helsinki, Finlandia.

Fuimos 9 los artistas que formamos parte de la exhibición, y también pudimos tener un art stand para vender nuestras creaciones.

Este post es un pequeño resumen de esos días, algunos de ustedes vieron que les compartí un perfil en mis historias y ya me encontraron por ahí, pero para quienes no lo vieron y quizá tengan interés, pueden seguirme en @Pame.doesArt que es donde comparto un poco de lo que he estado haciendo (aún que también debo de ser más constante en esa cuenta).

Y si, como les he platicado, Finlandia es un sueño para mi, el haber participado en un evento tan grande me llena de emoción y orgullo.

Les mando abrazos muy grandes y agradecimientos a quienes siguen por aquí.

Que por cierto, conocí a una fotógrafa Mexicana en el festival, quien me dijo "¿qué tu no hacías videos?", se me hizo increíble que después de tanto tiempo y estando tan lejos, alguien me haya reconocido heheheh.
