Marianas Rest @ Sam’s Pub, Karhula (Kotka), Finland, around 2018.
One of their last, if not THE last, pub gigs—at least at Sam’s. I’ve been following the band’s rise from just a few guys getting together and play some music to an actual legit band with record deals and everything. Sam’s Pub is a very small and cozy pub with a deliciously sublime collection of beers and they host a lot of bands with a rule that the bands need to have at least some connection to Kotka. The owner plays a huge part in getting smaller bands some live experience under their belts and I’ve seen many great bands play there and it’ll remain my favorite gig venue of all time. Marianas Rest however unfortunately—or fortunately depending on how you view it—has grown a bit too big to be able to play there anymore so they’ve moved on towards bigger venues by now. Regardless, love these guys and wish them all the best in the future. They’re really great!
So if you’re in the mood for some extremely melancholic heavy metal music, do give them a play. You’ll find them in the usual places where you find music these days. Honestly, you won’t regret it!
