Peço imensa desculpa por escrever em inglês. :(
Just a question about what people are listening to here. I'm half Portuguese half South African, e já vivo aqui em Lisboa há um ano.
For me, when I see festivals pop up, the line ups (in my very personal opinion) are incredibly mid. Bands such as Meshuggah, Animals As Leaders, Vildhjarta, Vianova, HLB etc never stop over in Portugal. I could write a longer list too of course.
What is it about the locals that don't listen to proper heavy stuff and is it that the metrics just show that everyone in the country seems to only like beatdown hardcore or slam or whatever? I find myself constantly having to look at flights to Austria etc to catch the bands I like.
I love the city of Lisbon its sucks that we don't get to see bigger/modern names in metal here.
Just curious why this is indeed the case.
Abraço
