Beast In Black

Beast In Black ignite Transbordeur

At Transbordeur, we are thrilled to welcome Beast In Black to our stage for a night that blends blistering power metal with gleaming synthwave hooks and cinematic flair. Our hall is built for impact—roomy floor for unbridled energy, crisp sightlines from every vantage point, and a sound system tuned to carry every soaring high note and twin-guitar harmony without compromise. This is the setting where Yannis Papadopoulos’s stratospheric vocals and Anton Kabanen’s precision riffing land with maximum intensity, supported by the razor-tight drive of Kasperi Heikkinen, Máté Molnár, and Atte Palokangas. Expect a set that channels the band’s anthemic spirit, from the instant catharsis of Blind and Frozen and Sweet True Lies to the fists-in-the-air surge of No Surrender. We have configured our stage to highlight the band’s slick sci‑fi aesthetics, so when the first synth line hits and the lights flare, Transbordeur will feel like a runaway starship at full burn.

Artistic momentum and a production built for velocity

Beast In Black arrive at Transbordeur propelled by the momentum of Dark Connection, whose sleek, neon-lit sheen has fueled their most ambitious touring yet. The songs that have become fan obsessions—Moonlight Rendezvous, One Night in Tokyo, Hardcore, Highway to Mars, and Bella Donna—translate powerfully in our space, where the low-end punch and silvery top-end let each chorus cut through like a blade. We’ve worked hand in hand with the band’s crew to integrate their cinematic backdrops and sharp-edged lighting cues, so the narrative threads in their music—retro-futurist romance, cyberpunk urgency, and heroic grandeur—play out across our stage in vivid detail. The musicianship at the core of this show is formidable: towering vocal belts crest over rapid-fire rhythm work, guitars lock into dazzling unisons, and the choruses bloom into stadium-sized singalongs. In keeping with the band’s meticulous standards, our engineers are calibrating every cue to ensure that when a track like Revengeance Machine or Dark New World drops, you’ll feel the full kinetic surge as clearly as you hear it.

For this Lyon date, we’ve tailored the Transbordeur experience to amplify Beast In Black’s strengths: swift changes to keep momentum high, a light design that tracks the music’s dramatic arcs, and an open floor that invites collective movement—headbanging up close, leaping choruses in the middle, and panoramic views from the raised edges. Anticipate a setlist that arcs from adrenaline-spiked openers like Cry Out for a Hero into the sleek glow of Moonlight Rendezvous and One Night in Tokyo, before accelerating toward climactic favorites such as End of the World and the signature Beast In Black. The interplay between band and audience is central to this performance, and our room is primed for that call-and-response energy—the kind that turns refrains into a choir and guitar breaks into shared triumphs. With dedicated merch areas, quick bar access, and a production paced for seamless flow, we are ready to host a show where every chorus lands, every spotlight tells a story, and the power of modern metal resonates long after the final chord.
