And I'm powerless to do something about it other than bitch about DethKlok on rttp. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:16pm - MikeOv ""] I don't hate bands like KSE, All That Remains and Shadows Fall; I just don't really care about them . Once upon a time Massachusetts had Perpetual Doom, and I can live with that. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:17pm - forcedtoBleed ""] There will always be trends. The great thing about trends is they always die. I don't care who thinks they know more about metal than someone else. I don't care if some dude thinks Korn started metal and his buddies agree. I'll listen to my Terrorizer record and enjoy it because I like it. It cracks me up that people feel threatened by this. Everyone trieds to be more metal than everyone. I just like and live it for the reasons that I like it and always will. Nothing more nothing less |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:23pm - arilliusbm ""] the key to listening and writing music is to do it for yourself and nobody else. however, that doesn't mean I get sick to my stomach when I'm surrounded by brainless sheep who can't think for themselves. but eh, it's expected. at a live show, it totally kills the atmosphere for me. that's why I can't stand palladium shows anymore.. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:23pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] FWIW, I still keenly remember not being able to go to a real, actual (fast, no JNCO pants) hardcore band's show for a good 10 years or so, BECAUSE THERE FUCKING WEREN'T ANY. Just sayin' - a quick commercial boom followed by the inevitable loss of interest bust can really F a viable scene in the A. Granted, we have the internet now, which is a double-edged sword but at least makes it easier for the non-shitshow bands to find each other, but still. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:27pm - arilliusbm ""] anyone remember the slayer show in 01 or 02 when they played with AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE and everyone booed them off stage? that stuff doesn't happen anymore! |
| ________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:31pm - MikeOv ""] I remember years ago when In Flames did that tour with Slayer, I don't know if that was the same show. My, how the mighty had fallen. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:42pm - aril mobile finally ""] I don't think it was that show although I do remember that one too. I just think it's funny how quick metal trends and fans change And I'm not even that old. |

| ________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:47pm - oscarct ""] anyone going saturday? |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:48pm - aril mobile finally ""] That one interesting show that in flames played was with dark tranquillity and kse. It was slightly before kse was very commercial but was when in flames had the white jumpsuits (gay). Dt slated that show to pieces |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 4:50pm - the_reverend ""] I was probably there. I think I went to the DT tour twice. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:08pm - goatcatalyst ""] I like KSE and not jus cuz there my frends. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:09pm - goatcatalyst ""] And yes, my fair Spaniard. I hope to see you Saturday. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:10pm - MikeOv ""] DT ruled at that show. I remember Sentenced played as well. Too bad it was long after their melodic/black metal era. North from Here ftw. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:18pm - MikeOv ""] Nothing beats In Flames first MA appearance at the palladium upstairs. That was KSE's debut gig too, lucky bastards. Fuck In Flames for having been so damn good at one point in time. Faggots. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:18pm - goatcatalyst ""] North From Here makes my Peter point North. (See what I did there?) |

Fuck In Flames for having been so damn good at one point in time. Faggots. I honestly think In Flames' downfall (as well as alot of other bands) is being heavily exposed to American heavy music...Soilwork and Lacuna Coil are two other bands that come to mind in that discussion as well the cross pollenation of the American and Swedish (or Italian in Lacuna Coil's case) style do not mix |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:28pm - aril mobile finally ""] Haha nice pun Ryan. North from here is great too. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:30pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] You dont win friends with salad. You dont win friends with salad. You dont win friends with salad. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 5:34pm - goatcatalyst ""] I'd toss Dana DeArmond's salad until we were BFFs |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 6:04pm - forcedtoBleed ""] how about the sickest Nile show ever....upstairs at the Palladium where the crowd was soo sick Nile decided to play for like 2 hours and played all of Nephra Ka that was sick! |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 6:37pm - PLongfellow ""] DestroyYouAlot said: forcedtoBleed said:Sometimes the people on this site piss me off. Everyone is always ranting about how un-metal every band and tour is unless it's a band that played 30 years ago and is touring some dudes basement. I am fully aware of the history of metal and love it. I saw Sinister play the MET Cafe with Shadows Fall opening up...I saw the Cannibal / Angel Corpse Tour at the Living Room. I saw Suffocation / Dying Fetus / Overkill when Kevin Talley played drums for Suffocation and Fetus. To be honest, I would watch KSE any day over Composted that everyone here seems to love. That band is a far worse thing for metal than any of the bands that played yesturday. Who cares about what kid likes what band for what reason. Those dumb kids allow the other bands to benefit and actually make money to tour and play shows. I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you; someone was butchering a Dio song just now. What was that? BURN! >:] |

| ________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 9:10am - foghorn ""] Was anybody at the Slayer show a few year ago at the Palladium when someone tossed a beer bottle at Tom Araya's head and the show stopped? "Control yourselves!!" haha |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 9:29am - arilliusbm ""] NILE used to be one of my favorite bands live. I haven't seen them in a few years. Their shows from the 99-2003 era were some of the best. foghorn, what slayer show was that? who did they play with? |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 9:42am - the_reverend ""] when nile played the elvis room in portsmouth just after catacombs came out, it was amazing. win 3.11 computer and all. |

| _________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:59pm - foghorn ""] I want to say it was 2002. That's the only thing I can remember from the show other than being up above the stage to the right and standing next to an awfully ugly woman. Before Slayer came on the whole floor was yelling "Show your tits!" and I was yelling "You really don't want to see them!" |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 1:38pm - arilliusbm ""] is it me or has Nile NOT played up here recently? I can't remember the last time they played up here. If it was recent, i wish I saw them. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 1:45pm - boblovesmusic ""] Nile played here in 2008 I believe. They're playing here in January with Immolation! |
| _____________________________ [Aug 6,2009 3:31pm - Yeti ""] i hope the sound is good, i've seen Nile once and it was muddy. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 9:24pm - forcedtoBleed ""] Does any one else remember the tour Nile played with Morbid Angel, Skinless and Dehumanized at the Met Cafe. I think it was on the formulas tour. It was so sick...there was about 50 people in the crowd. Trey jumped off the stage at the end of the show and was just hanging out with everyone at the bar. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 9:33pm - forcedtoBleed ""] oh man, also just remember the show with impaled at the met cafe where the dude lit his hair on fire. I think the tour was Impaled, Decapitated, Incantation and Vehemence . Oh the memories! |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:40pm - the_reverend ""] I was at that show. I missed who ever opened. plus decapitated were like 15 |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 7,2009 12:01am - demondave ""] I had no solid opinion on Kill Switch Engage prior to this. I have even seen them a couple times and if anything I was bored. But I just checked out the embedded video from above. WTF? Are they having fun, or making a show and trying to portray an image that they are brutal but fun? It was painful to watch. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 7,2009 11:10am - xitsdoomsdayx ""] the met cafe had shows of godly there, dont forget exhumed and behemoth, i belive decapitated played that show as well.. good fucken times |

Not that she knew it was coming, but that her ass would be everywhere and needed the proper skirt to underwear ratio. And with good cause. |

Before Slayer came on the whole floor was yelling "Show your tits!" and I was yelling "You really don't want to see them!" :LOL: I remember that (I didn't catch your "You really don't want to see them" line, since I was down in the crowd, but I had roughly the same thought.) Slayer/Soulfly/In Flames. I fell during Soulfly and someone jumped on my ribcage. Amazingly nothing broke. |
