MARKO HIETALA
Live At Tuska Open Air, Helsinki, Finland 06-27-2025 DVD
Concert Review:
Marko Hietala’s Tuska Open Air 2025 set brought his solo presence to the metal festival stage with clarity and emotion. Running about 54 minutes, this Pro Shot performance leans into material from his latest solo album Roses from the Deep as well as deeper cuts from his back catalog. The recording captures the intensity of the Finnish audience, the stage’s lighting and motion, and Marko’s vocal and instrumental approach in a solo context distinct from his work in bands.
His set feels like a bridge between his past and present: songs from Roses from the Deep, heavier rock moments, and personal storytelling. Though not as long as a full solo headliner tour date, the show is tight and satisfying, appropriate for a festival slot.
