DIMMU with Debb this Thursday!
Nice, you get to finally see them on this tour!!! I will be seeing Chimaira while you are watching Dimmu!!!
=========================================================================================================================================================================================Ok, so I went to probably one of the most extreme shows I have ever been to.... and I mean 'extreme', not violent, not even close to most brutal or violent, but simply extreme.
The main 3 were... Black Anvil, then Goatwhore, then Watain headling..... the band I like most of these is Goatwhore of course, they are a good mix of black metal, some death metal, and regular metal with some groove to it all in one. anyways... the whole place stunk of supposedly dead animal carcasses and blood..... Watain was a very fvkked up and evil band, a gimmicky set perhaps but extremely evil. There were large pikes with candles lit and rotting animal skulls(these of course added to the smell already in the room, but were still interesting looking, I think they were either large bird heads or maybe goat heads? not sure what animals they were), they were put on spikes attached to them, plus chains, huge upside down crosses, etc. I was right up front and the vocalist 'baptized' lots of the crowd with the putrid smelling animal blood.... not to mention that everyone in the band had lots of it on them with their ripped, torn, frayed, leather fvkked up clothes.... when the singer would headbang, more of the animal blood was coming off his hair and right onto me. Then towards the end... my left hand I had been supporting myself from the great evil metal fans behind me with my hands on the stage and the PA speaker... the 'lead' guitarist stomped his boot right down on my finger (on the PA) before starting a solo... so not only did I have lots of animal blood on me but also lots of my own blood as a good portion of skin was torn of my left ring finger.... I stood there, kind of pissed, but at the same time kind of satisfied of this dark music and show... I held my left hand with my right for the next 5 minutes very tight to stop the bleeding of course getting more of my own blood on myself in the process.... meanwhile still banging my head throughout the show when I could.... I had already given my all a lot during Black Anvil, one of the first bands earlier (Immortal Decay)... and then Goatwhore I was going apeshit... I hadn'thad dinner and from all of the concert noise and from drinking a lot had a headache as I stood there watching this show with blood all over myself. I did drink a lot last night before the show and then some more at the beginning... (bless the Jager reps when they come to shows and give out free shots!).... Anyways, it was an awesome show and perhaps the most extreme I have been to. Imprinted on my memory will forever be the foul stench of rotting death while I was at the show.....
Tonight is my night off from concerts.
Tomorrow night (12/2) I will see one of my all time faves.... CHIMAIRA! There will not be any need for drinks for this one as I will be in a frenzy, a craze, in oblivion as Chimaira tears up the stage yet again, my 13th time to see them
First time to see Daath and I do like them a lot as well. Very catchy and at the same time brutal, and great guitar work.
