Nahh, I'm just very politically short triggered these days.
Thing is, I kinda want to go on a rant about people preaching on those who are preaching. Like, it's ok to preach anti this, and that, but the anti part, is anti by definition lol. Fucking Nazi lover....haters!!!! Ha ha ha
It's all about freedom, and what Snail said is true, just don't go if you don't like it!
Also, Aside from calling the staff at my favorite venue "Idiots" Eric from Inverticrux is a friend of 20 years, I hate to see his band getting sharted on before they even have a chance.
Cheers to MT and all us old fucks that have managed to keep the scene going after all these years.

Dear anonymous person who is too much of a wimp to log in,
I am the supposed "idiot" who booked this show. If you have a problem with it, I highly suggest you speak to me in person regarding your concerns. We book bands based on how their music sounds and whether or not they will fit on a show. I don't do an extensive background check or research the political ideologies of all band members. This never seemed to be an issue when Eric was in Eternal Embrace. I'm not aware of his personal views, and unless the band went on stage wearing swastikas and dressed in klan outfits, I could care less.

WE ARE ANTIFA AND DONT NEED TO LOG IN. YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO A CHECK BEFORE YOU BOOK BANDS. WE HELPED SHUT HELVETE DOWN AND WILL NOW TRY TO SHUT DOWN ANY SHOW THAT BOOKS NAZI BANDS. DO NOT SUPPORT.
[Jul 18,2011 8:15am - Josh_hates_you ""]
Sam, I'm pretty sure Raynard is the nazi in question(i met him through a hammer skin friend years ago), not Eric. I could be wrong.
I really don't give a fuck about people's beliefs. But that coupled with the almost graveside service like rants that dude posts and the horrible vocals he provides along with stupid stage antics (much like GSS on both accounts) there is more than enough reason to show up late or get a burger during this band.

Music/Art > Politics. You don't shut down music based on not liking politics that lack empathy, that only ENCOURAGES such politics, whereas keeping art and music at the forefront is the greatest long-term weapon against those politics in the long run.
After all, as soon as you say the ugly political views are more important than the music, then you're giving them that extra power over the long run. Historically, when an artist who is a bigot has had to stop making art, they only focused more on their politics of bigotry, not less, coming right down to the figure that the Neo-Neanderthals find so inspiring.
I doubt Antifa or Shaniqua or whatever will be able to process the complexity of this argument since they haven't mastered the SHIFT and CAPS LOCK key yet, but for those here with a triple digit IQ, that's my answer. You don't get rid of hate and violence against minorites by stifling the free speech of artists; hate and violence towards minorities has always flourished in societies where speech was curtailed and artists were not free, because censorship makes hate just build and boil over, while art and music allows for such emotions to be vented by both the artist and the audience.
It's amazing to me that anybody could devote themselves to being a professional musician, particuarly in the genre of metal, and NOT get this basic building block concept.

Josh, I respect your opinion, but I believe this band has already played MT for the FOB cd release ( I was not there) ....show I hear they got a good response too. Honestly, I went to see them about a month ago, and I was shocked at first listen, but after a few moments, I actually liked what they were doing. They were actually doing something different, and that I liked. I don't know Ray too well aside from maybe a few small conversations (he did some artwork for us) with him, he seemed like an ok guy to me, no nazi rants there anyways. My point is, Josh, what you like may not be what others like, and like adults, we all should respect eachothers opinions and their individual preferences in musical taste and political views.
Eric is a great guy, and best of luck to him and his new band.
[Jul 18,2011 11:43am - dyingmuse ""]
now, I'm just getting more excited for this show.
[Jul 18,2011 4:13pm - Josh_hates_you ""]
It was a Faces of Bayon show at Oasis, not Metal Thursday and not the cd release show. I wasn't there either but I heard that they didn't go over to well and the venue was rather displeased with the mess they left behind from their on stage shit show. Faces of Bayon most likely didnt enjoy playing on a stage covered in broken props left behind by Inverticrux either. From the video's I saw the music wasn't the worst ever but not something I would actually enjoy. The vocals are just plain terrible, I don't care how open minded you are. Again in comparing them to graveside service originality doesn't always count for anything.
I never said I didn't respect anyone else's opinions. I simply expressed my own. I will be enjoying a Ralph's burger during this band. Look forward to checking out Dark passenger, though. The video I saw was good stuff.
[Jul 18,2011 5:13pm - Yeti ""]
i believe Mike's quote was something along the lines of "only leaving your mess on stage for Faces of Bayon to clean up is real".

Right on Josh, glad you liked the DP stuff, and hope to show off our new tunes that night...thnk you!
As far as the mess, I didn't know that, and I thought it was a MT show, sorry for the mix up. I guess we'll have to see how it goes. I should hope they won't be doing that at Ralph's, especially knowing 3 other bands will be sharing the stage (including mine). I'll definitely be checking out their set again though, sure I'll see you there man \m/

Thanks burnsy, I'll have a bowlpack of that same KB as last time to spark up with you if you happen to make it down to this one.
Same offer goes of course to Josh, Tom, Mike, Mark, and all of our other Massachussetts friends who make it out.
Metal + Smoking + Ralph's Burger = Win

Sam, didn't you do the usual background checks, psych evaluations and 100-point questionnaires for all band members? Tch tch, serious breach of protocol.

I can see that your panties are in a wad, so I'll give you a little piece of advice: Deal with it. If you don't like the bands that are playing, don't go to the show. Calling me of all people a closet racist is absolutely absurd and only shows your ignorance.
Every time you post in this thread, it gets bumped to the top of the page. Keep posting your stupidity in all caps. All you're doing is helping promote the show.
