If you’ve heard of “the Backstreet Boys of Sweden,” you’re familiar with DEAD BY APRIL. This pop metalcore band from next door last released an album in 2017 and now was the first chance in a long while to hear their music live in Finland. They played two shows over Easter weekend with special guests BLIND CHANNEL and further support from MY FAVORITE NEMESIS and EMBER FALLS, so we went to check them out at Nosturi on April 20th, 2019. Check out the full gallery here.
