Gallia: #AtoZChallenge

Leave a comment
Gallia

Who: Gallia of Belgium.

Elyn Vandenwyngaert: Vocals
Yannick Maris: Lead guitar, compositions
Davy Coningx: Rhythm guitar
Laurens Vandebroek: Bass guitar
Dieter Vantilt: Drums

What: They play symphonic metal. Their name reminds me of a spooky ghost town that is within an hour of where I live. Gallia is also a little spooky. Do they go on ghost hunts in between gigs? I think that whenever it’s possible, Gallia should do a concert/ghost hunt. Play music and hunt for ghosts at the same event.

Why: Besides being spooky, they are pretty kickass. I’m hoping that they get the following that they deserve – millions and millions of fans that love metal and ghost hunting.

What: Heavy Metal band since 2016.

Why: Fate DeStroyed rocks as much as anyone. They do a pretty awesome cover of “In the Pines.” It would be a shame if you missed out on supporting a band with so much potential for heavy metal greatness.

Who: Ex Libris of the Netherlands

Dianne van Giersbergen – Vocals

Koen Stam – Synth & Keys

Bob Wijtsma – Guitars

Luuk van Gerven – Bass

What: Symphonic metal. Metal for history buffs. Their last album was more like a trilogy of albums about 3 historical figures: Anne Boleyn, Anne Frank and Anastasia Romanova. So if you are a fan of symphonic metal and history, Ex Libris is the band for you.
