Eruption

Performing: Lintver / Eruption / ExodusDate: Tuesday, 24 June 2025Venue: Ljubljana / CUK Kino Šiška / Slovenia Exodus are widely regarded as one of the most important bands to emerge from the San Francisco Bay Area at the turn of…

The day kicked off in lively and interesting fashion. Who would have thought the first ones on stage would be Frenchmen with an identity crisis — Frenchmen who swap champagne, baguettes, and stinky cheese for tequila, tortillas, and…

The annual, traditional celebration of the stink — that is, the birthday of our most active concert organizers, Dirty Skunks — has somehow become synonymous with the first major post-New Year's event. The Dirty Skunks mini-festival turned…

Human history is riddled with dark prophecies about the end of the world — and its eventual rebirth — whether you're talking Norse Ragnarök, the Mayan apocalypse, or the biblical end times. The new studio record from Slovenia's thrash…

Label: From the VaultsRelease date: August 19, 2022Rating: 8.5/10 A solid five years have passed since the last studio transmission from Slovenian thrashers Eruption. Cloaks of Oblivion is the album that, in my opinion, finally crowned…

When Death Angel are anywhere nearby, it's a "you know the drill" situation. And when they're playing Ljubljana, on a Friday no less, showing up is mandatory. For at least the last decade, Death Angel have been synonymous with how thrash…

Last Friday, Medvode's Jedro hosted the traditional Metal med vodami, with SkyEye, Eruption and Cowboys From Hell on the bill.

Last Friday, the traditional Metal med vodami went down at Jedro in Medvode, this time with SkyEye, Eruption and Cowboys From Hell on the bill.

After a warm-up night like the one Iced Earth, Metalsteel and Eruption put on, counting down the days until we're back in T'mina gets a whole lot easier.

April isn't just the month of weird weather, it's also the month of the annual, traditional metal weekend at Kranj's TrainStation Subart.

A domestic metal album coming out is already a reason to celebrate, and when it comes out on vinyl, even more so. Now imagine four homegrown, stylistically diverse releases hitting the turntable on the very same night!

As part of the official warm-up party for Rijeka's Dark "O" Metal fest, local heroes Eruption unveiled their new album Cloaks of Oblivion!

If all you want from thrash is speed and brutality, Cloaks of Oblivion might not fully satisfy you, but if you're after "thinking man's thrash", you'll be spinning this new album very, very often.

Another year has rolled around, and the Slovenian live underground's favorite pets have blown out another candle!

Metal Mania is no more, but Live After Death is faithfully carrying on its legacy!

We survived four days of hellish heat and a hellish lineup that was once again a varied one this year, and now the last day of Metaldays 2015 was upon us!

The thrash bears of Eruption have finally woken from hibernation, and they're back at Gromka for the first time in a few months with a fresh new recruit.

Sadly, Channel Zero saw yet another poorly attended show, one that, given the quality on offer from the bands, deserved a much bigger crowd.

The godfathers of Slovenian thrash spent last Saturday at Ostriga in Škofja Loka celebrating the birth of their new studio beast, simply titled Thrash!

"Release party" for Panikk's new homegrown thrash metal monster, Unbearable Conditions!

With the strengths of their new album »Tenses Collide« and the kind of stage form Eruption are in today, the guys are ready to storm foreign stages and let thrash metal fans around the world get to know them!

A good three years after their well-received debut Lifeless Paradise, Eruption are back with the new album Tenses Collide, which tops its predecessor in more ways than one!

Just like every year, this year's Teden mladih in Kranj served up a night of metal in front of the legendary Down Town.

Bay Area in the Dolina šentflorjanska! Thrash metal from Goričko to Piran, as if Kreslin were mumbling it. Wherever the road winds, at every stop (thrash in every Slovenian village!) you can run into excellent thrash metal. Na&scaron
