And if youve never listened to it, and are interested, id suggest sewn mouth secrets. YES!! Deleted Symphony is also brilliant. The new one is good too. Sewn Mouth Secrets is genious. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 2:12pm - RustedAngel ""] decapitated owns everyone on this bill except for nile, I've said it before and I'll say it again, Vogg write's some of the best death metal riff's EVER, recognize!...but I've seen nile like 20 times. |
| _____________________________ [Feb 4,2006 2:41pm - nash ""] Does anyone know if Decapitated is confirmed for this? They aren't on the Palladium site. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 2:49pm - the_reverend ""] their record label thinks they are on it. http://www.earache.com/tours/tour_info.html#decapitated http://www.earache.com/news_stories/decapitated.html |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 3:04pm - RustedAngel ""] again, 99% sure decapitated is playing. Kristian, my co worker has been in touch with their merch person. Obviously that wouldn't be so if they had cancelled. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 5:23pm - the_reverend ""] I'm leaving now. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 5:50pm - Jonahnli ""] see ya there rev |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 6:58pm - Georgenli ""] this will be the 4th time i had to sit through soilent boregarbage. i'm just stoked for nile and decapitated |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 8:57pm - the_reverend ""] with passion: so, I've had these guys CD for awhile. I thought I had seen them at the wakefield church. I will have to look in pictures cause they didn't look familar. Their set was good. It sounded a bit hollow cause they weren't turned up real loud. IMHO this is a weird band for earache to care about/sign. They are more lifeforce material. the CD is full of "midleymidley" metal parts, some break downs and a lot more of the more acustic sounding parts that they only busted out in the last song they played. well, george is probably disappointed if he was here for decapitated.. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 9:03pm - the_reverend ""] decapitated: they came out and immediately, every polish deathmetaler sparked up. The place smelled like the in side of otto's bus and smoke came in from behind nile's massive drumkit. Anyhow, they started up and the the sound was like cold ass. I'm pretty sure this is the worst sound I have ever heard at the palladium. Over in front of taitlyn (rustedgirlfriend) I could heard the guitars/bass/vox/drums and they were playing wicked tight, but I was standing right in front of vogg, hearing it from his monitors. 10 feet back and you could hear nothing. So I walked back from the stage in to the crowd on the other side and stood by forbes and jenna. It sounded terrible there to. Decapitated stood there play awesome tunes and it was converted into a low, echoy mess. WTF to the extreme. though after I accepted the trash sound, I coud tell the song day69 and one off nihility. after their set, even the sound guys who had no clue who the band was were talking about how terrible the sound was for them. I've waited almost 4 years to see them again and I get that? anyhow, on stage, it was kind of like watching two different bands. the guitar/drums interacted and the bass/singer interacted, but they didn't really mix between the two groups until leaving and the bassist pounded down on the cymbols. this band had best have a second guitar player when I see them! granted, not many people can play well enough to keep up. watch vogg, I definitly see tom copying the ame moves when porphyria plays. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 9:27pm - the_reverend ""] raging speedhorn: they played that old 70's song "money" to warm up sort of setting the sound for them. over all, the sound was decent for them. you could feel the house PA actually doing some work. They had dual vocalists which was kind of cool. The vocals were ok too. I don't like theyir CD, but it was ok live. They have a lot of energy. The music is sort of lamb-of-gody with more 70's rock sound to it. They got a few claps at the end, but it was mostly jeers and a few 'boo's and 'you guys suck's from the audience. it's fricken cold in here. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 10:21pm - the_reverend ""] soilent green: how to tell if you are seeing goatwhore or soilent green. Watch the singer. If his hands are constantly dropping back seemingly under the weight of invisible grapefruit, you are seeing goatwhore. If the singer is constantly pointing a gun with his fingers then you sir are seeing SG. In this cause there was a lot of pointing. The sound was so much better for them. The PA was pumped up a little bit more. Over all a great mix for them. I think with the newer CD, ben is mixing in more of the ballady goatwhore vocals. I got confused for a minute durig one of the songs, but saw him pointing so I knew. at one point he ask to see what all the "yanks" were made of. how cute. hypocrisy is sound checking now and the drums sound fucking sick. no site of a synth though. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 11:05pm - the_reverend ""] hypocrisy: ok, the synth tracks were done by the drummer with a little sampler so something beside him. All the oh's and ah's from the synth were there. They just plan ruled. I could completely hear everything they were doing. this almost makes up for the crappy excuse for a sound board mix that decapitated got. Almost. Of course if was so cold in there that you could see peter's breath hanging in the air as he screamed. Reminds me of the finger numbing conditions at new jersy metal and hardcorefest 2003 on the second stage. Still hypocrisy was able to rial up the audience through the pure fact that they were just that good. If I were in any other band then nile, it would have sucked going on after these metal titans. After what 13 years of releases, they have a lot of good material. I would have to say that they played mostly new stuff, but not a single song wasn't a hit. They didn't show any sgn of slowing down or stopping... And then they got cut off! I walked back stage and looked at the schedule. they still had over 5 minutes left to play. peter had his head down on something looking very distraught. someone f'd something up, royally. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 4,2006 11:08pm - the_reverend ""] ok.. wtf is up with this show. decapitated had shitty sound hypocrisy gets cut short and now I'm told that I can't use flash for nile? something is fucked up here. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 12:09am - the_reverend ""] nile: so the reason for no flash was the "person holding up there flash really high and the camera really low." whoever that was, what an asshole. The sound for nile was pretty bad in this place as it always is for them. I thought it was fine through the monitors. I actually sounded good, but when you stepped back like 20 feet, it was the same echoy mess it always is for them.. Actually I soert of take that back. They are typically just a wall of echoy noise, but the PA wasn't turned up very loud so though echoy as you would expect from this place, you could hear everything but the bass. you probably can't tell by my pictures, but there are 5 full stacks on the stage. damn. and Man, their drummer is awesome. His legs just bounce back and forth and it sounds like ever bounce hits like 3 times. I must say that never noticed that besides the blasts that he does, almost all the other drumming is fairly slow. since the last time I saw them, dallas has worked on his frontmanship. before he wsnt very confident up there and I was thinking they should look for another cheif/versano, but he's actually really good now. I guess they played that song sarcophagus for the first time ever live at the NEMHF last year. interesting fact, I know. off to the side of karl, there is a little podium.. like when you are doing public speaking. all it's got on it is karl's towel. weird. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 1:13am - the_reverend ""] why did hypocrisy's set get cut? from a couple source, it's alleged that hypocrisy has been going over their time by a few minutes every night so.. this night, some one in nile decided that they got 10 minutes cut from their set. childish.. and we all pay for it. nile's come a long way since their first tour where I saw them in a coffee shop and a few nights later they played someone's basement. *sigh* chief! peter! |
| _______________________________ [Feb 5,2006 1:48am - Ryan_M ""] the first band was lame, decapitated wasn't too bad, raging speedhorn had some cool grooves, but nothing special. soilent green was kind of boring; i'm not really into them. i was disappointed that hypocrisy's set got cut short, they were the only band i cared about seeing, and nile, while a decent band, are kind of boring to watch. all in all i probably should have stayed home. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:10am - the_reverend ""] home, working on pictures. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:15am - Jonahnli ""] hypocrisy were so fuckin good |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:22am - BornSoVile ""] hypocrisy was robbed! best sound ever for them. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:23am - the_reverend ""] pictures are uploading in a minute. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:27am - BornSoVile ""] yo Rev, did you see FinalBloodBath getting arrested??? |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:35am - the_reverend ""] HOLLY SHIT!!! was that him? I was like why is that guy who looks like moran with long hair again screaming for 15 minutes. I went to my car, set up my camera, and then went to drive by/snap a picture but the police were there then and hewas gone. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:04am - Aegathis ""] the_reverend said:nile: I was thinking they should look for another cheif/versano, but he's actually really good now. They need another Vesano!!! |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:13am - i_am_not_me ""] Whoever said Decapitated dropped off needs to be beaten to death with their own shoes. Although it's not like I could afford to go anyway. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:23am - contagion ""] decapitated got fucked over. the sound was horrid. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:27am - anonymous ""] [img] parking isnt that expensive if you would want to walk what two minutes |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 10:29am - contagion ""] i paid 5 dollars and walked for 30 seconds. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 12:02pm - the_reverend ""] that picture was accidentally put up.. I was trying to get my camera ready to shoot through the rain at finalbloodbath getting arrested |
| __________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 12:59pm - pam nli ""] Decapitated's sound was fucking horrible, I am so fucking disappointed. I hate the goddamn palladium, I think I'm going to start making the drive to NY or CT on good tours cause it's not fucking worth it to go to that shithole anymore. When they played Spheres of Madness my jaw was on the floor...it was soooooo fast. Soilent Green, band #2 of the evening I've been waiting years upon years to see and also sounded terrible. The thing rev said about the pointing made me laugh. FUCK NILE. FUCK FUCK FUCK those assholes for cutting off Hypocrisy. Who also had shitty sound but I could make it out enough to enjoy it. A lot! I was having an awesome time and they blue balled everyone by them off. That's bullshit. Nile is tired and boring, I've seen them 500 times in the last few years and the suck ass. I also got in a fight with some douchebag guy wearing a Nile shirt who was getting all puffy-chested at our Nile bashing, so I turned around and asked him what the fuck he was looking at and the little pussy backed off. It was funny. I'm just a girl you sissy! haha All in all it was a horrible night. |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 1:00pm - pam nli ""] oh I should add that one of the guys in Raging Speedhorn was fucking awesome and gave me a cigarette and talked to me in his funny accent outside and made me feel better, he was awesome. Made me feel bad for not giving a shit about his band! |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:06pm - BornSoVile ""] where the hell is raging speedhorn from? |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:19pm - pam nli ""] england! |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 2:26pm - the_reverend ""] pam gives a shit? what are you turning into a girl or something? I though you were done with that shit once blind gaurdian came on at your wedding. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:04pm - This_Is_Heresy ""] I'm honestly confused about how anybody can find Nile boring. They put on a really good show last night. They definately shouldn't have cut Hypocrisy short. I'm 110% on board for that because Hypocrisy was putting on an amazing set. I was pissed too. But Nile boring? Nile sucking even?? I just dont get it. |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:08pm - pam nli ""] you must be easily impressed, that's all I can figure. and don't remind me I'm married right now, Aaron. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:10pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] the_reverend said: soliet green: SOLIET? |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:12pm - pam nli ""] yeah, they're totally french |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:25pm - This_Is_Heresy ""] Easily impressed? Can you play any of their shit? I didn't think so. I'm actually rather critical of who I listen to. The first band was boring. Speedhorn pissed me off. Whatever though. I hear lots of people talk about how over rated Nile is and yet no body ever says why... |
| _________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 3:30pm - pam nli ""] Because playing fast is not impressive to me, song writing is, memorability is, and they have neither, in my opinion. But my opinion is obviously not for everyone. I was mostly joking around, don't take it so personally when people don't like a band that you like. You're entitled to like whatever. I think the masses who feel that Nile are overrated think along the same lines as I do, so take it as some insight into the other sides thought process. I don't care how many notes you can play in 30 seconds, I really, really, don't. I don't care how TECHNICAL the drums are. I think they're boring and structureless...and frankly the whole EGYPTIAN DEATH METAL FROM SOUTH CAROLINA thing is pretty weak. so you wanted my reasoning, there you go. ;) |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 4:17pm - This_Is_Heresy ""] I'm actually wicked happy that somebody on here has some reasoning behind what they say. You have some coherent thoughts on the matter too. I got what I asked for! I guess I'm just tired of so many people on here trashing one band for no other reason than because a lot of people like them. Glad its not the case here. Personally, I think there is more to Nile than just speed, but that just me. Hell, I could make a bunch of posts with legit reasoning about band who I feel are over reated and people on here would just be lining up to shoot me in the face. So...ya know... its cool. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 5,2006 4:24pm - anonymous ""] I thought Deacpitated DID get fucked and I was angry, I happen to like Nile a lot, I thought they had good sound where I was. To be honest, I think the reason for the bogus sound in places was the way they were rocking the speakers, usually there on the stage, not floating above . I don't know might not be anything. And the lead singer for Hypocrisy looks EXACTLY like Christopher Walker. I needed more cowbell to say the least. -Tony from Cunt-aging |
