Alternative scenes in Brussels?

Post new topic

Hey guys,

I will be moving to Brussels in a month and I just wanted to know if anyone here was part (or had any info.) of alternative scenes (goth, punk, metal, etc) in the area. Any info or leads will be much appreciated.

In Brussels, those two are best places for you to go to in my opinion.

First is called Rock Classic Bar. It's a bar basically, but all the music there is alternative (usually pretty mild versions of it). There are often live concerts and etc. It's right in the centre, and is always available.



Second is a place called Magasin 4. This is literally the main place for metal (all sorts of). This is an alternative music concert place, with concerts taking place every weekends. Because this place is mainly for seriously hard metal music, all the people there are either vivid listeners, play or are in the scene itself. There are many different people from all over the world and you can easily meet new people and etc.
