Live shows

I saw King Diamond too on Thursday and it was incredible. There are few bands I feel is actually worth seeing on a big stage like that but King Diamond are definitely one of them.

Abbath being Abbath. Fuck this clown.

 

[Falmyst78]

good show...

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Abbath being Abbath. Fuck this clown.

oh yes, fuck a guy who doesn't take the falsehood of black metal so seriously, no? He should put on his satanic bathrobe robe and pretend that he burns a church down every morning before breakfast just to make all the fake and lulzy black metal bozos happy, no???

Crack is harmful. Leave it. You should join Abbath's band, since you make as much sense as he does on stage.

I'm going to see Malokarpatan tomorrow with three bands I've never heard before. Should've done more research, now there's no time to listen to all their shit. Hmpf, I guess I'll let them surprise me.

I saw Eyehategod last weekend and they were good fun even though I don't listen to them. Now I don't have tickets to any upcoming metal shows as I'll be travelling around regularly on undetermined dates in 2020. Mainly hoping I make it to Sacred Reich.

 

[EternalMetal]

Finally got to see Cannibal Corpse this weekend. They fucking killed it, great show as expected. I think I either cracked or bruised one of my ribs in the pit, but it was worth it.

Had a blast seeing Slayer Wednesday night! Killer setlist and loved the pyrotechnics! Primus and Ministry were solid support acts, a bit surprised they were on the final leg of the Slayer farewell tour.

Nile are touring here in April, hopefully the stars align and I can attend. Would be amazing to see those guys!

I'm glad there are still folk out there that haven't been burned out on Nile. I grew up in the heart of their early touring range and saw them so often in the late 90s/early aughts that they just bore me now. Not their fault. I overexposed them on the personal level, lol.

 

[CiG]

You must have been busy, juggling time between death metal concerts and KKK rallies.

 

[Sedition and Pockets]

Nah, got into movement politics about the same time I was burning out on Nile.

 

[CiG]

Ok Nazi.

 

[Sedition and Pockets]

Ok Nazi.

The one-off split Radiohead did with Nokturnal Mortum? Where'd you even find a copy?

poseur mindset confirmed.

Been listening to them since the beginning. I dont get "burned out" on good music.

Now let's not overrate Nile. They're an ok little band with a real clever gimmick, and the musicianship has been solid to top notch throughout their run. Karl Sanders is a consummate professional. Thing is you take the samples away and it's a moderately above average death metal band. I saw the absolute shit out of them when I was in high school and in the early years of young adulthood because they were local, and it was just too much exposure for a band that was pretty good but not great. I still occasionally listen to Festivals of Atonement and Catacombs, but I have no desire to see them go through the motions of a live show at 50 something. If they had been less available to me in the day, I might feel differently.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

you're saying two different things. I have no problem with you saying "i dont like them as much now because they're not as good as i thought they were when i was younger" .... but saying "i dont like them as much now because i've heard them too much" basically indicates that you were never a true fan of the band to begin with. The quality of the music one initially praises doesn't change just because said person has heard them too much or they've gained popularity or whatnot. That is one of the defining traits of a poseur. But regardless, what i say about you never being a true fan of the band stands. They are also one of the most important and influential technical death metal bands of all time .. so yeah, they deserve all the praise they get.

I saw Nile live around 7 years ago, with Morbid Angel and Carcass. The show was incredibly powerful. The performances and sound were spot on. It's a band that any metalhead into extreme metal must see live at least once. Same with Cannibal Corpse.

I'm not a hardcore fan of Nile but the guys are good. Competent, consistent enough and they have a very recognizable sound. That's already head and shoulders over thousands of bands.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Same with Cannibal Corpse.

BUT WHAT DO YOU MEAN? EVERYONE HERE SHOULD BE BURNED OUT ON CANNIBAL CORPSE BY NOW that type on mindset being anywhere near the metal community amazes me.
