The Nocturnal Affair opening the night for Fear Factory at Live Music Hall in Cologne.
The Nocturnal Affair is an American dark alternative rock band from Las Vegas, fronted by singer-songwriter Brendan Shane. Known for their brooding, melancholic aesthetic and heavy sound, the band blends elements of alternative metal, industrial rock, and gothic influence. Opening the night for Fear Factory, they brought the mildest and most melodic sound of the four bands on the bill. Dressed in suits, they looked more like an alt-rock act from the past than a typical metal-night opener. Are suits coming back in fashion?
