Italian gothic metal legends that are Lacuna Coil tore the roof off of The Academy in Dublin for a night of their In The Meantime tour which runs throughout October.
All band members were wearing outfits containing a large print of the ”Sleepless Empire” album cover with sees the light of day next February (14.02.2025).
Right from the start it was an explosive high energy show as one would expect and when I say right from the start this inculdes the set for support act Blind Channel from Finland who play a blend of Nu-metal / Rap-meta/ & Electronicore.
