RNC Not to Have Performances by Deicide and Obituary... Weird[views:4020][posts:20]_________________________________ [Aug 25,2012 12:49pm - Burnsy ""] http://news.yahoo.com/death-metal-sound-ta...epublican-convention-113030167.html Lulz of an article. Best line: "The U.S. military has found the music handy at times. According to Mother Jones magazine, a song from Deicide's album "Scars of the Crucifix" was played during interrogation of detainees in Iraq. The band said it was proud to do its part for the war effort." |

Celebrated being the Metalcore capital of the world. Weird that Tampa wouldn't do the same for Death Metal. |

LAMMMMEThe saddest part is that most people around the world consider Boston the capital. Killswitch Engage, Shadows Fall, Unearth, The Red Chord, Acacia Strain, Bury Your Dead,All that Remains. None of these bands are from Boston. |

Killswitch used to play in Hanson. Close enough to Boston to call them a Boston band when it comes to playing a national level IMO. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 25,2012 2:26pm - KEVORD ""] The only metalcore band actually from Boston is Panzerbastard. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 25,2012 2:31pm - Burnsy ""] True enough, sir. |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 27,2012 12:26pm - ShadowSDNLI ""] You never need an excuse to get drunk and listen to the Scorpions. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 27,2012 12:40pm - ShadowSDNLI ""] But given the Republican focus on rape the last two weeks, I'm surprised they didn't invite Scaphism to play. It's really better though that they didn't let any good bands play, who wants to play in a commercial that licks a billionaire's butthole for three days? |

Deicide were discussed, and had a bit of a music video shown. Also shown and discussed: Obituary Atheist Cannibal Corpse Hate Eternal Morbid Angel No. Fucking. Joke. |
