Thursday February 19th[views:26186][posts:167]the Chopping Block (Boston, Ma) - [abhorred][ascendancy][dissector][raising_kubrick][randomshots] [show listing] ________________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 12:55pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] Less than a week away. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 1:05pm - succubus ""] are you still performing with a fig leaf covering yer privates? |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 1:48pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] No, but that's what I'm wearing right now... did I say I'd perform dressed like that? |
| __________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 1:51pm - succubus ""] yup you did to get more people to go to the show |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 1:51pm - RustedAngel ""] gotta love these 21+ retardation shows. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 2:09pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] 21+ = bar = free to book. 18+ = bar that's going to keep part of the door $, and obviously there arn't too many of these. All Ages = $$$. (general rules that don't apply to every venue/club) |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 2:17pm - Dissector ""] Do you thinkthey would let us bring someone thats not 21, and bring him on stage with us and say hes a back-up vocalist and lead headbanger? He'll still pay though. Think it would work? |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 2:29pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] I think the CB is pretty cool about shit as far as I know. And if someone under 21 shows up WITH the band, where would they go? The door guy doesn't know how close or far anyone lives and I can't imagine him telling anyone who is with the band that they have to stand out on the sidewalk until the show is done. Girls are easier, the girlfriend clause it's the simplest thing in the world. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 2:37pm - Dissector ""] Ok. He's is like our good luck charm, we always play better with him around for some reason. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 2:37pm - succubus ""] yay! i'm a girl and a girlfriend!! |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 3:11pm - the_reverend ""] ra's a retard cause he's young. faggot |
| ___________________________________________ [Feb 18,2004 4:18pm - SmallBrownRatFuck ""] Sounds like a good show. Me and Ryan'll be there. |

| ____________________________________ [Feb 19,2004 1:27pm - anonymous ""] recoupable means you gotta pay the label back for the money they gave you in the advance. BUT if they drop you from the label you no longer have to pay the money back. |

| _______________________________________ [Feb 19,2004 6:41pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] RustedAngel said:gotta love these 21+ retardation shows. you wouldn't come anyways, so shut the fuck up |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 19,2004 7:04pm - BornSoVile ""] now Tom, that was uncalled for, once you turn 21 I expect to see you at these shows. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 12:40am - Dissector ""] Just got back. Our set was insane. IF you didn't like the music, I hope we at least gave you a good laugh. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 2:38am - the_reverend ""] I'm home working on the pictures. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 2:59am - the_reverend ""] ok, pictures are uploading. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 3:25am - Joe/NotCommon ""] The show didn't have a very good turnout, which kind of bums me out. Raising Kubrick played first, it took the first 2 songs for Sarah's voice to really kick in, but Kris and Blue's sporadic energy masked that anyway. By the end they were rocking, it was a good set. Dissector was second, they were much better then when I saw them at O'Briens, not having technical difficulties helped. They played the song about the leper who lived with his mother's corpse. They also had the zombie mosh guy, who headbanged next to them the whole set! It was awesome, I owe you guys 10 bucks. Email me. Abhorred was third, they are fantastic. If you haven't seen this band yet then you are so stupid, I hate you. Ascendancy played third, for a rather short set in my opinion. It was a good set, lots of energy and heckling between songs. All in all I had a good time, the club was happy with the turn out, as small as it was. But since it was like 6 days notice they aren't holding it against me. March 20th here I come! |
| __________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 8:46am - succubus ""] RIP baby sorry ascendancy to those of you who have no idea what i'm talking about..my baby (camera) died the last pic i took was of Joe not Common right before Ascendancy played $700 repair..yay! =( |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 9:15am - blue nli ""] [img] now thats damn cute. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 10:19am - pessimist ""] Great show last night, dissector was awesome AND hillarious...RK was amazing as usual...and Ascendancy killed. Buy their CD so they can go on tour in South America. More people need to show up at the next show on March 20. All in all, a great time |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 10:31am - the_reverend ""] raising kubrick: they were all sick and snotty I guess... probably from al the RK ground make-out sessions. sara's voice sounded a bit "manly" and didn't really have any of the high-end screams to it. this was accentuated by the fact that Peter (drums) was britney-spearsing it with a head set, doing back up lows. dissector: those kids still love zombies and they dabuted the new song about that guy with leprocy (bet he'll be a zombie at some point). For being so young, those kids can really shread. They are a mix of hate eternal and macabre with some exhumed tosed in there. abhorred: I finally figured it out! the vocals are a mix of pantera (when they were good) and a gruff scream ala goatwhore. interesting cause you can understand most of the lyrics. the guitarist shread too, taking turns in the lead. they slow it down on a track of two and click into southern rock riffs (ala soilent green). right here, carina's camera die... it's probably going to cost here ~$600 to fix it too. the miror assembly quit on her. this is exactly what I feared happening with my camera. ascendancy: by this point, there weren't many people there. But ascendancy are just pure, 100% rock stars and pushed through it. They let out some news and they freaking deserve it. I've seen them countless times and I never get sick of them. |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 10:54am - Pete from RK ""] Although the show didn't have a huge turnout, it was still fun. I hope everyone engoyed the debut of my wireless head mic. Phil Collins is probably rolling in his grave. :pukeface: (me at the show) |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 11:05am - pessimist ""] i want a back massage |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 11:06am - Joe/NotCommon ""] HEY KID, STOP ALL THE DOWNLOADING help computer |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 11:09am - the_reverend ""] have you seen a pink vinyl purse? |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 11:14am - Joe/NotCommon ""] i am just dying for my cigarettes |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 11:54am - Dissector ""] Sorry to Abhorred and Ascendancy, our only ride home wanted to leave so we had to go. Just to clear things up, the dudes mother was dead for 3 and a hald months, not 6 like our bassist said. My blister poppped in the second song so my fills were shit. Oh well. Rev, the pics rule like usual. Finally somebody noticed our Macabre and Exhumed influence. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 12:15pm - succubus ""] meant to ask you yesterday dissector...who are you in the band? |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 12:24pm - Dissector ""] Drummer |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 12:35pm - succubus ""] cool! got some cool shots of you..before my camera died =( my pics will be up tonight |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 1:28pm - Dissector ""] Sucks about your camera. Two of the guys from Abhorred look realy fucking familiar. Hmmmm.... |
| _________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 1:35pm - phantos ""] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rev - you need to stop calling them RandomShots and just be honest and call them CarinaShots from now on. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| __________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 1:36pm - succubus ""] hahahaha BAD CarinaShots you mean |
| _________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 1:37pm - phantos ""] nah. you always look good. natural talent always photographs easily. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 1:44pm - succubus ""] aww thanks but i don't like most of them =) but on another note! there are plenty of shows i go to and he takes random shots and i'm not in them heh |
| ________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 2:34pm - Assuck ""] Dissector said:Sucks about your camera. Two of the guys from Abhorred look realy fucking familiar. Hmmmm.... Which 2 of us look familiar? |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 2:58pm - Dissector ""] The one in the Mortician shirt and the one with the braided beard thing. I dunno, maybe I saw some of you guys at a show or something. |
| ________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 3:11pm - Assuck ""] Yea that sounds about right. We all go to a lot of shows. By the way, do you guys have a website that I don't know about yet? |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 20,2004 3:38pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] Raising Kubrick: Good solid set from these perverts. Tight like a tween and almost as pretty. Peter needs to not hold back on the little jazz-intro, hit them drums bitch! Definitely one of my top three favorites from New England, especially 'cause they all molest me at every show. Dissector: I heard these guys had to take the day off from their paper-routes to play. I'm glad they did. Kickass gore-grindy fun, but they stole out bit about zombie-rape which made me sad. If they stick together for a couple years they'll be out of control. Abhorred: More ass-kicking. Like Aaron mentioned too, I could actually understand what was being growled and it wasn't a weak of half-assed growl either. I really liked the couple Soilent Green-esque breaks, good contrast against the death-grind-whatever you want to call it. Ascendancy: I could've taken a nap at any point during the whole night, including our set, but we pulled our shit together and I think we did pretty well. I'm looking forward to March 20th because we don't have to play last!! Hopefully we'll have shirts by then, everyone buy one so we can afford to go on tour, hah. Thanks everyone who came, even the pretty girls who left just before our set. They always leave just before our set. I love it. Just another day in the book of metal. |
