New site? Maybe some day.
|
So... Another day starts like the last. Although this day, the photo pit is now a full on first come first serve sitery.
amoebic dysentery: they had a CDR of their drum tracks. They came out with weird biohazard suits and face masks with goggles. It wasn't as good as some other bands, like neurotic collateral (?I think that's it). The singer tried to vomit, but couldn't. He drank a whole thing of grape jelly and half a thing of milk plus put his fingers down his throat, but nothing. A guy from the audience held the bucket.
magrudergrind: the sounded awesome. As good as the other night, tight, but with really really good sound. |
|
dispised icon: insane amounts of energy live. I've never seen them before. I guess 2 of the members couldn't make it. I swearhe said that one of the guys was from shai hulud. The other guy, I don't know. They are playing a show in worcester that you all have to go to. Also, the are touring with deicide. They sounded like another some one else that I can't remember. I think its someone on black market activities. |
|
xxx maniak: whoah, they tossed about $1000 worth of porno, dildos, and butt plugs into the crowd. There were guys fighting over 18" dongs in the pit. I tried to get one for succubs's ass, but missed. they were almost pornogrind, but sounded a little too death metal for that. Hilarious now the less. |
|
Its funny now cause people are trying to piss or what ever while carrying a huge dong.
splatterhouse: they sound more carcassy live that the CD todd gave me. I thought the Cd was more mortician worship. The drums sounded too perfect, like a drum machine and were heavy on the hihat sound. |
|
Splatterhouse is still playing and they just did a total dying fetus slam breakdown. |
|
ion dissonance: not quite as riotous as the other times I've seen them, but still pretty awesome. Though, I was walking back around and the shorter guitarist who should have been on stage charged by me and shoved me out of the way. I guess his head blew during their set. Thank you to whom ever caught me.
Also, during their set, some kid came up to me and gave me a CD, Throne Fiction, saying "you set yesterday was hilarious." I think he thought I was in gronibard. That is hilarious. In real life, I'm a noboby. Not a rockstar, especially not a french on. |
|
bodies lay broken: they said they were from osaka japan, but I have no idea. It was good. 1/2 the vox went through a prosessor.
ghoul: wow, they are doing a cover of what a wonderful world. It sounds really good too. The crowd went nuts for them. I even saw kalopsia rocking out to it... Not hard since he's tall. They were wearing hangman's outfits. Good stuff... Though I'm getting more and more annoying in the photo-pit cause there keeps getting to be less and less room in there. |
|
They were 45 minutes ahead of scedula so they are holding rotten sound up. This sucks. They need to play right now. |
|
rotten sound: the sound was a million times better. I think they might have played longer too (compared to last wednesday). I don't think that singer can ever get enough vocals. |
|
birdflesh: I knew from their logo that they weren't totally serious, but they also came out in cotumes. It was sort of silly looking, but the music was awesome. I think I need to hear them on CD to like it. Definitely a name I've been hearing for a long time. It was cool that the drummer sang and an awesome push pit broke out. Though it got roudy upfront due to the intermitent crowd surfer. |
|
aborted: same set that they played at the middle east. It pretty much ruled just as much, though again, they only played one track off engineering the dead. If any one in aborted reads thid, please, play 2 or something off the christ denied split. It was weird cause there was a mass exodus out of the building after they finished. Sucks, but not too many people stayed... I would say the crowd was cut in half. Anyhow, the new aborted tracks some a lot different, but the CD is still probably going to own most everything else. |
|
impaled: well, they sounded awesome once the technical dificulties were ironed out. For some reason, the samples weren't coming through the PA and everyone had to be very very quiet to hear them. Then, ross's guitar head stopped working. Shawn (singer/guitar) hooked the bass through his rig so that he was only singing. I though he wouldn't know what to do, but he was one "claw" shy of being BDM. Finally, after a few songs, some one fixed the head so that they could play with everyone. Oh, and I thought I would be in the perfect spot for the fire,but I was wrong. They kept coming closer and closer to me... I kept backing up until I was on 2 kids laps.
They just kepp playing better and better.
For their last song, in a totally expected move, leon de mort came out and sang. Since I mean, what band hasn't he filled in, toured with, or been in? |
|
I'm working on the pictures now...
give me some time there is a lot of them and my laptop is being slow. |
|
what a long day...
pictures are processing and will be up shortly. |
|
just walked in the door.
it was beautiful out on the road, but back in NE it's raining.
bull shit! |
|
there are some really awesome pictures up..it looks way more packed looking at those pictures than it felt like while i was there.
i tried to find you last night rev to give you that hoodie but i didn't see you, and the staff basicaly gave me the boot. i'll hook you up at that palladium show in a couple weeks w/ dehumanized, etc if you go
oh also immolation RULED |
|
this fest was awesome. that soundguy doesn't know what he's doing, and he should die. but otherwise i had alot of fun. it really sucks about Impaled's set. but at least the crowd still went nuts for them, they deserve it. |
|
yeah it really sucked for Impaled and Immolation especially...the power cut out completely like 3 times during their set |
|
we didn't hit traffic either! |
|
I would have love to have seen XXX Maniak,The CD I have is killer |
|
I got home in 7 hours and 20 minutes |
|
8 hours for us with an hour stop in hudson mass.
so technically 7 hours and we were greated by rain when we got to mass. |
|
general surgery: ok, I don't know this band. I was told that they were the second coming of christ and carcass, but they weren't that melodic... mostly very gutteral. it was great stuff, they came out covered in blood and played. after about an hour, the sound guy turned off the stage and they kept playing through cliteater or whatever on the house PA. After 2 more songs, they finally stopped, ripped the strings off their guitars and finished.
immolation: by this point in the night it was so late and I was super tired. I ran around taking shots, but after not seeing "no jesus, no beast" on the set list, I stuck around for "father, youre not a father" and then took off.
it was great to see all the bands, meeting up with all the people, and snap pictures non-stop.
to ryan/evan: awesome fest, the venue was decent. my basic complaints are superficial (like too many people in the photo pit and the security giving me 1 minute to get something from my car and get back inside), but over all, it ran super smoothly. there were only a couple cases of broken equipment... not a single band failed to show up. I will definitely look forward to shooting this again next year.
Oh, props to malignancy for coming out both days even through they werent on the fest just to support the other bands. you guys rule. same to sean v (ex fassw, current vehemece), Jon & Jill (?) (incantation/funerus), leon de mort (ex-imapled/exhumed), and anyone else I forgot. Also, to all the people I got to meet for the first time, including kurt from century media and Dilton (poltergeist Mag br), carina and my swedish photog buddy (who name escapes me now), the old singer of dehumanized (jerry), and a bunch of others that made the weekend rock. |
|
"Thanks to Dwyer for tripping over my big fucking backpack all weekend"!
|
|
I wrote that in the other thread. |
|
We are home! There was no traffic on the way back so we stopped at Foxwoods to kill our wallets even more. Fucking fun weekend. \m/
|
|
Chris and I hit Newport right at 8:00pm. The ride home was nice.
|
|
just getting in, time for sleep |
|
I'm doing return to the pit...
no sleep... |
|
they totally played anoxia, teratism and throwing shrapnel over the PA. |
|
i can't believe i'm back in the real world. this was a kick ass weekend. kick ass. i won't be happy until my hair is as long as the singer of Immolation. i loved the venue. very cool. the cops were dicks, but, what can you do. the beers were expensive, but, what can you do. the music was great, the people were great. i <3 metalfests. |
|
I would love to go just for lividity... but naw. |
|
i was going to go to ODF but i can't anymore. |
|
ill be in clearwater florida that weekend, so i have to pass |
|
blue said: they totally played anoxia, teratism and throwing shrapnel over the PA. |

|
John, are you going? Any room left? i have nothing going on that week-end...not that I wanna see that many bands but still. Lemmy know. |
|
I think decrypt used my pictures alot of places, I think. |
|

|
HEY YEAH!!! XXX MANIAK = FUNNY AS SHIT....
ALL OUT SLUT KILLING!!! |
|
XXX Maniak has inspired me to buy a drum machine as soon as possible and start spewing very similar things out immediately |
|
and by that, you mean mega dildos? |
|
as long as i can get a big time discount, dildos are expensive. |
|

That would be awesome,XXX Maniak is killer, I wish I coulda gone to this |
|
lol I find it funny that like 90 percent of the bands on this show seem to show up in costumes. Looking at these pictures reminds me of a 3 day long halloween costume party. GET BRUTAL AND GET IN YOUR BLOODY HOOD AND THROW DILDOS!! cool man. goregrind bands need to get out of this gimic bullshit. Gut (germany) was actually really deranged when they did it, these bands now a days just dont get it. |
|
Dildos are pretty brutal when they weigh 30 lbs like XXX Maniak's did. Never saw GUT do a line of cocaine off a pool table then run into the crowd and fuck a black mannequin like they did. Really bizzare. |
|
these fuckers rule!!!!! the album rules and for being their 1st and only show thats was something to remember |
