Sat. April 8th - MORBID ANGEL, BEHEMOTH, KRISIUN, DESPISED ICON - Palladium[views:48528][posts:201]the Palladium (Worcester, Ma) - [behemoth][despised_icon][krisiun][morbid_angel][randomshots] _______________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 8:07pm - MetalcoreSUCKS ""] Of course its not packed, its an old school Death Metal show.Shows are nevr packed around here.At least as far as the ones I go to. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 8:22pm - dyingmuse ""] leaving now, be there by 930 ish late as usual |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 8:32pm - the_reverend ""] dan will get here for the last 2 bands then. despised icon: their set started off ok and got better as they got in to the set. Both singers kept jumping into the crowd, keeping the limited staff running over to get behind them. Since they were involved the crowd got into it more than they would. I'm guessing this will be the only band where the singer goes into the crowd. The main singer mentioned the fact that they played in ashland and sent a song out to everyone who went to that should. He said that 3 other times they were suppose to play, but eachtime something happened and they couldn't. anyone who missed them is lame. they got a 30 minute set. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 8:35pm - the_reverend ""] oh, DI only had one guitar player. lame. krisiun s setting up. they get until 9:30. behemoth 9:45 to 10:30. morbid angel 11pm on. maze of torment is being played and I believe it's their 3rd song. not that I saw the setlist already. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 9:23pm - the_reverend ""] krisiun: unholy christ one a freaking pogostick (sorry, they played dead milkmen before the show), their set was punishing. If I didn't have earplugs in I'm pretty sure I would be dead now. The kick drum was destroying my hearing through my ear plugs. I love the fact that kids in the front row were holding up the brazillian flag for the ENTIRE set. Some one behind it was trying to take a picture of the band and just kept getting the flag. They played a good mix of tracks, including my favorite off the new CD "vicious wrath". The singer's stage batter I thought was the same since I saw them in 2000/2001, but no. The first talk back was the same limited catch phrases, but the one after that was well said and showed that they did in fact know english. They fake ended with conquoring armagaddon too. Yeah! it was funny cause some chubby kid with a mohawk (see the trendy thread) tried to crowd surf, but it took all the people around him quite a bit of time to get him up, but then he was pulled out again with in minutes. the crowd was packed by this point. I'm glad that all the metalheads finally come out. it was also funny to see behemoth rocking out to them from the side of the stage in their full makeup. at the very end of the set, the singer put his bass into the crowd to the brazillian flag people and almost got pulled off the stage. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 9:59pm - the_reverend ""] I'm typing out the review for behemoth now, but I have to interject. if you are a "metalhead" and you aren't here right this second, either sell all you metal CDs to some one who is here, or kill your self. they are fucking amazing. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 10:25pm - the_reverend ""] behemoth: ok.. When every band trumps ever other band in that "stealing the show" sort of way, you know you are at a kick ass show. They were insane. They entire set was crazy. They moved all around the stage and then *bang* in the right place at the right time for everything. The singer would come right out and showboat for the crowd on the edge of the stage. At first I thought it was hough on drums. The drummer looked massive, but he's just got a higher stool. The drums were more technical and less focusing on the double kick like krisiun do so their set wasn't as pain full. They had a killer light set up too. Tons of colors and flashing lights. the number of crowd surfers picked up too. This was also the highest number of polish flags I've ever see at a show. Before their "encore" they sort of did that echoy solo thing that trey does every show. the singer come out in a mask and a dress type thing (looking like a centobite). they played a couple songs and the mask came off quickly. then ran off the stage saying thank you. the house music came on, but the lights didn't really. then the singer came back on stage minus the dress and told every one to yell. everyone of course did and then the house music cut out and they played ANOTHER SONG. I have never seen and opener do that in my memory. I give this set an 11. so tight, so much energy, so awesome. |

| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 10:54pm - the_reverend ""] MA is setting up now. 16 songs on the set list I think. looks almost exactly like the list from last time, including the encores.. hmmm. weird... not sure how I feel about that. |
| ________________________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 11:12pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""] im more upset about missing torche and the sword tonight |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 11:14pm - brian_dc ""] I remember when I had money and I could go to more expensive shows like this one pissed I'm not there. |

| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 11:30pm - the_reverend ""] MA is playing right now. since when to fat goth kids like morbid angel? there's more hot topic wears in the crowd than a cradle of filth show. stupid clothing with buckles all over it. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2006 11:45pm - wade nli ""] haha. I can't believe people still wear that shit. are they cutters? look for scars and take pics. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 12:28am - the_reverend ""] for some reason the singer of senseless mutilation just came up to tom (rusted angel) all friendly, then headbutted him and threw him over the barricade/bar in the front. if he had done that 1' to closer to me it would have knocked all my gear on the ground. no one knows what's up |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 12:31am - the_reverend ""] there are about 40 people on this site that I would have expected that at, but that was very unexpected |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 1:14am - darkenedsoul ""] Good show! Nice turnout (Rev? Where the hell were you? I didn't see you wandering!) and always cool to see metalhead friends from shows past. That is always cool. And the little dude was there too! He's always at the shows (I forget his name, but cool dude). So overall I was pleased with the sets and the turnout. Behemoth was as awesome as last years show. Krisiun I haven't seen since 2000/2001 but were great. Morbid with DV back onboard was a treat as I have only seen em 3 times so far. Sick drumming! Opening band was *ok* in my books. I'd have rather had another death or black metal band but they did good. Could have used a 2nd guitarist though to fill out the sound a bit more. Good time had by all! |
| __________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 1:30am - DEATH2ALL ""] Awesome show! Krisiun fuckin rules! |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 1:33am - Josh_hates_you ""] DI - they sounded bad. stupid sound guys slacking off for the opener. lack of second guitar was very noticable. wasn't really feeling it. Krisiun - holy kick drum. brutal set. Behemoth - they sounded great and everything was rock solid. i hated those fucking lights. Morbid Angel - i was expecting death metal when some U2 sounding pop band played instead. I suck at writing reviews for good shows, only when shit goes wrong do I have something to say. |

| _______________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:16am - DomesticTerror ""] Pam, where were ya? I went apeshit during "Fall from Grace" for ya! that song alone was worth $23... |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:18am - the_reverend ""] I walked up behind scott and he kept going.. while I was trying to say hi to him chris (the acursed) walked off without seeing me. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:22am - DomesticTerror ""] why didn't you grab my ass like you usually do? |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:24am - ArilliusBM ""] that was one of the best shows I've been to in a long time. Krisiun destroyed with the double bass. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:26am - DreamingInExile ""] the show tonight was like a family/highschool reunion for me... I ran into friends & relatives of friends and classmates that I havent seen in years... show was killer, sound could have been better for Krisiun & Behemoth, and Despised Icon just bored me no offence to those that like 'em, their drummer's got some good chops, but I just wasn't feeling 'em. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 3:57am - RichHorror ""] I've waited to see Morbid Angel with David Vincent since fucking high school. SO worth the $23. Aaron didn't get any pictures of the bruises I got from losing a fight with myself. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 4:46am - GoatOfCatalyst ""] wade nli said:behemoth is awesome but I'm listening to Deathspell Omega's Kenose and feeling content. What he said. And then the Crebain/Leviathan split, then Xasthur's "Suicide in Dark Serenity", then Wigrid "Hofnungstod" (aren't I grim and frostbitten?) and saved myself $50 without having to smell Behemoth fans - consistently the most putrid fanbase I've seen yet (while Opeth fans are the most deserving of beating and exile, their moms bathrooms ARE stocked with soap). Saw Morbid for free with Soulfly :pukeface: and while I wouldn't mind hearing the alleged same set again... did I mention I saved $50, listened to great shit on my new stereo and didn't have to smell the unbathed metal populace. Krisiun I'm all set with and I'll probably see Despised Icon at five CT American Legion halls by the end of the year. |

| ________________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 10:13am - MetalcoreSUCKS ""] Killer show last night!!! Got there when Behemoth were on(BORING).Seems like their set dragged on and on.Morbid were tight as fuck and Dave's voice sounded better than it did last year when I saw them.I loved how the floor opened up during Where the Slime Live. METAL!!!!:doublehorns: |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 10:17am - RichHorror ""] I got there as Behemoth ended. I would've checked out Krisiun if I wouldn't have had to sit throught Behemoth to do it. I went for Morbid Angel alone, because I'm a close-minded snob. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 10:20am - MetalcoreSUCKS ""] I like being close minded |

| ________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 10:56am - Ryan_M ""] me and my friend decided to skip the first band, and showed up at the palladium just in time to see the almighty KRISIUN rip shit up; these guys put on a really fuckin good show, absolutely crushing; i for one was very impressed. next up was BEHEMOTH. i love thier stuff, but to me they weren't as good as krisiun, kinda sounded like shit, but put on a good performance overall, lots of energy on that stage. finally the great MORBID ANGEL came on. they rocked the fuckin house with a beautiful onslaught of tunes from the good old days. awesome set, but i wish they'd played more songs from "blessed are the sick", that seems to be a sadly underrated album. beats the hell out of "altars..." in my opinion. great fuckin show overall - krisiun and morbid angel left the biggest impression on me for the night; after the show me and my friend chatted with dan from shroud of bereavement and some other people that were far beyond intoxicated, which was quite amusing. i had a great time! |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 11:06am - anonymous ""] It is all about Behemoth THE BLACKEST OV THE BLACK. |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 11:27am - anonymous ""] BEHEMOTH HAS CONQUERED ALL MOTHER FUCKERS!!! |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 12:40pm - dreadkill ""] ok anonymous, we get the point. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 9,2006 12:50pm - anonymous ""] Exactly. Krisiun fuckin smoked everyone on that stage. Behemoth was cool but their sound was off. I can never hear the snares at the palladium when they do blast beats. After the first tune, the singer yells "We came to fuck all your women and drink all your alcohol!" Classic. Despised was cool as well. |
