I must say I'm hoping for a greatest hits set as I had mixed feelings when I saw them at The Astoria. The STYE songs just did'nt have the same spark as the older material in a live setting. Not really a surprise. There's still another support act to be added to the bill, Soilwork is possible I suppose (and hope).

DAMN LONDON. i have to travel cross country most the time to see them in the states, but have seen them three times and enjoyed every show.
 
Yeah I'm going, but mainly because Lacuna Coil are also playing...
Even though I will have to put up with the likes of Caliban and Chimaira as support....:cry: I can't stand fucking Caliban... if they simply have to include a metalcore band, I'd much rather see Unearth, or All That Remains. And Caliban supported last time for fucks sake. Give some other band exposure!
I've not heard Koma....anybody know them?

I went to see them in April (first time) and although it was good when the played the classics like Coerced Existence, Colony, Embody The Invisible, etc, playing certain new songs made it a bit less enjoyable than it could've been. Opening with Dead Alone was a shit starter - I like the beginning of that song, but it quickly gets a bit shit as soon as Anders starts. The only ones I thought worked well from the new album were In Search For I, and My Sweet Shadow. Personally I was relieved they didn't play Friend, that song annoys me....!

Anyway I'm guessing they'll play pretty much the same setlist as before, as much as I would like a change this time! If only they would include songs like Zombie Inc (surely a great live song...), Jester Race, December Flower, Surburban Me, THE HIVE!! Goliaths Disarm Their Davids......I would be so happy, but I'm sure they'll stick to the usual.

By the way, I've *cough*downloaded*cough* the new Dark Tranquillity album, Character, now that fucking rules!! :rock: It puts the new In Flames stuff to shame. Heavier than Damage Done, great vocals too. I can't wait to see these guys play in February. (Can't afford to go to the December show with Arch Enemy and Nightrage :cry: :cry: :cry: ...)
I'll definitely be buying it when it comes out in late January.
If anybody hasn't been able to find where the album leaked, pm me and I'll let you know.
