last night was wicked, wicked cold. Mortician broke down in CT and Arsis was MIA. the hint I got was that they were missing from the whole tour... sad...


shadowfacts: they were ok. I liked a few of their songs. I'm also not sure about the "name" thing as for the first time, probably ever, I spelled a name CORRECTLY. There were some parts of songs that I didn't like. Over all it sounded a lot like the band crematotium (from cali). They also covered the faded line by lamb of god. I was truly taken by surprise that anyone is covering LOG. especially a song that came out a few months ago. I would expected something older.. or off burn the priest. weird.

the chasm: I fully agree. they seriously stole the show. they were awesome. even the new stuff was really really good. I did notice that the older songs had more of a slayer infulence to the with some falsettos tossed in. I definitely need to pressure Earache more to get their CD that came out in Novemeber. the crowd was the largest by far for them (to quote one person from the crowd "best band pictured on your site"). I talked to them afterwards (well the singer and the tour manager). being from mexico, they obviously spoke spanish... it was probably the clearest, cleanest spanish I've heard. they gave me 2 cds that are sideprojects and some label contact to get in touch with in mexico city.

funerus: they got up on stage and I'm like "kyle and jon are the only ones left in incantation? what happened to the bass player?" nope, this was another band. it was jon/kyle from incantation and a girl on bass who did most of the vocals. they didn't have as much energy as an incantation show. I think the girl was sick so that probably did it. it was still pretty good.

incantation: by this time, a lot of people had filtered out. the front was just full of a bunch of drunken people spilling beer everywhere. after the low-engery from funerus, I was expecting the same from incantation, but I was wrong. they came out with a lot of energy and played a great set. kyle's drumming sounded awesome and jon was shredding up a storm. the new CD is good, but I liked the older tracks better. I dressed up and was ready to head out when they played the title track from the new CD, Decimate Christendom, but decided to stick around. I was soooooooo happy I did. they song they ended on was annont the chosen (from infernal storm). that song is super sick. As I was listening, I noticed a lot of hyper-shred riffs and progressions that reminded me of Ascendancy. I never asked Ascendacy who their influences were.. but maybe they pulled from incantation. they also played tracks off of diabolical conquest which is my favorite CD.



on the way home, I was listening to 90.9 (which is WBUR down here), but they were playing a tape/record set from the 1960's that taught you how to respond correctly to a yellow page ad. It was hilarious. I listened for over 30 minutes and now, I'm ready to sell snakeoil from yellow page ads. it was well worth it.
