KRALLICE AT GREAT SCOTT TONIGHT![views:9620][posts:63]______________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:23pm - lionel huts ""] Krallice, Withered, and Moons. Doors at 8 I believe and I'm sure the cover is under ten dollars. Come out and have fun. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:29pm - arilliusbm ""] Don't forget to bring your flannel shirts, tight blue jeans, and Keds. Oh yea, and thick-rimmed glasses. Fucking grim guy. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:30pm - livingvoid ""] I have a totally full day today but I really hope to make it to GS in time for Krallice. They are amazing! |

| ___________________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:40pm - Botorious N.I.G. ""] It's also really boring music. But hipsters like boring, so long as it's boring in a different way. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:47pm - livingvoid ""] Keep sippin that hatorade RttP.. haha Where are you getting that this band is somehow a hipster thing? Just cuz it's at Great Scott? They're just music nerds playing in a black metal style, let's be real. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:48pm - livingvoid ""] That middle guy looks like Marcus haha |

Yeah, that's the problem. They're doing the same stupid shit every other rock band does. Black metal isn't a style, it's a genre. Trying to make it into a "style" for your warmed over, coked-out indie rock is a dumb fucking idea. These guys should just go back to what they really love and do that right. The world needs more quality indie rock. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:50pm - livingvoid ""] Fair enough. I don't agree but I see where you're coming from. |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 2:55pm - livingvoid ""] I don't really see how fashion is relevant to a critical evaluation of a bands' music? Who cares what someone is wearing? But whatever, I don't mean to argue, I'm just trying to support a band that I think is making excellent, unique music. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:04pm - livingvoid ""] Also, not to beat a dead horse, but did you actually look at that video? None of the members of Krallice resemble that dude at all. The guitarist with the Ibanez Iceman is rocking a Nocturnus - The Key T-shirt.. sorry but that is way fucking true. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:09pm - arilliusbm ""] My critical evaluation is spineless limp wristed "black metal" with rock star members who should stay in Behold...The Arctopus and sub par NYC indie rock bands. Then again, I don't like 'em because they wouldn't hold the door for me at Cherry St when I was lugging my cab around. Held the door for them and no thanks were said. cool story bro. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:11pm - arilliusbm ""] Also, LOL @ googling "hipster black metal" and having their logo pop up inmediately. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:16pm - arilliusbm ""] But I suppose it'd only be fair if the bands I've been in were as exciting as Krallice so I guess i'm just another hater. And us haters gonna hate. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:18pm - livingvoid ""] Hey there's no accounting for taste. And there's nothing with wrong with hatin' if you're hatin' for your own reasons, not what you feel you're expected to think from your subset of social peers. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:21pm - Alx_Casket ""] I don't feel that the song that was posted so far in this thread goes anywhere... Besides that, I want to acknowledge the criticism so far in this thread. I don't understand why anyone should care what a musician is wearing on stage enough to make a blanketing judgment about the band itself, being hipsters or whatever. If the music sucks, don't listen to it. If they don't have manners, treat them with the same respect. Behold... The Arctopus is really good, and blows the song in this thread out of the water. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:23pm - douchebag ""] these douches should quit cause they're so untrve. colin should just concentrate on his hipster indie rock band gorguts. luc lemay rides a fixie. |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:34pm - arilliusbm ""] Personally, I lose a lot of respect for a band if there's hipsters in it, music good or not. Shallow minded it may be, but I'd rather be hipsterist than racist. My ideal world would have segregated restrooms for hipsters and non-hipsters. :-) |

They steal their sound from a number of bands that have done far better (I'm guilty of this too) but then (the frontman especially) proceed to make a mockery of the bands they blatantly rip off by saying they don't play grim music and want to distance themselves from metal attitude, and try to intellectually justify their sound when they are just completely derivative. You're saying let the music speak for itself but this guy literally "invented" the "burst beat", "transcendence" and so on apparently completely independent from metal lineage and tries to sell this idea along with the music. Plus a bands actions, stage antics and aesthetics do matter when you go to see a SHOW. It's like they are trying to make a "statement" just by wearing normal clothes to a band interview, trying so hard to be different and it just feels like a circus. bennyhillifier |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:47pm - josh_hates_you ""] i saw them at great scotts a while back on whatever show they where on. talented musicians and all but it was boring as fuck and hardly black metal at all. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 3:54pm - arktouros ""] They sound a lot like Woe and WITTR which I really enjoy, but Liturgy just pushes this "anti-metal" mentality and pseudo-philosophical bullshit which totally ruins it for me. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 4:01pm - douchebag ""] trying hard to be different by not trying hard to be different [img] what does liturgy being stupid have to do with krallice playing a show in allston tonight? |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 4:09pm - arktouros ""] wow, i get the two bands mixed up, that's how much i don't care about either |

Their music strikes me as untethered, without context, noodling for the most part. It's pretty but it rings as hollow as any second-rate USBM band writing songs about their fabricated pagan heritage. DestroyYouAlot said:I think it was bobnomaamrooney who originally said it, but I literally cannot see the name "Krallice" now without hearing "fuuuck a-youuuuu, Krarrice!" in my head. CURSED WITH LOLS. |
| ____________________________ [Apr 24,2011 4:42pm - Uh ""] Personally I think the guys in Krallice are incredibly talented musicians, but their black metal was really disappointingly boring. After having listened to Dysrhythmia, Behold the Arctopus, Orthrelm who are pretty good, applying that almost avant garde, over technical style they do so well in other genres is really difficult to pull off in black metal if at all possible, and Krallice doesn't really deliver IMO. I actually like Liturgy's music more than Krallice but too bad they're complete douche bags and their existence is a complete insult to all of music not just black metal. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 4:47pm - arilliusbm ""] Dysrhythmia is indeed good |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 5:07pm - goatcatalyst ""] Being romantically involved with several members of Krallice, I am thoroughly offended by the comments in this thread. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 5:37pm - the_reverend ""] Love the band, but I am busy. |

You said "fixie." Hipster fag. I'm not understanding why all you gaylords are so bent out of shape about what someone else is WEARING. You all sound like a bunch of fashion fags. Sniggling about what someone is wearing = "I have A.I.D.S." If you like it, go. If you don't, don't. They're not "trve" but not terrible. I'd go but I'm too busy being a workin' class stiff. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 8:23pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Can we just talk about how sub-par this music would be if the band DIDN'T dress like beardos? 'Cause it is fucking TEDIOUS. C- |
| _________________________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 8:43pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Go ask Krallice when she's ten feet tall |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 8:53pm - goatcatalyst ""] Wait til buttdarts see my Pearl Jam shirt on Friday. Gonna have to find a nice new flannel at Kohl's |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 8:58pm - Chriskar ""] i also dont understand the obsession by a BUNCH OF DUDES about what a BUNCH OF OTHER DUDES are wearing...if you think their music sucks, then more power to you, but judging other men by their attire in relation to their worth in the metal community is slightly gay, not everyone is going to wear an extra large darkthrone shirt, jncos, and doc martens...that being said, never a fan of krallice, although their newest record is a solid one. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 9:06pm - arilliusbm ""] lol at all you butthurt fags over stupid comments. |
| _____________________________ [Apr 24,2011 10:51pm - Uh ""] ITT aril judges bands purely by their attire. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 24,2011 11:08pm - arilliusbm ""] true fact. i hate the cure because of how they look. oh, I also hate dwight yoakam because he wears a cowboy hat. oh, depeche mode? they sucked because they look queer. no, but really.. if you're going to play something that resembles black metal, leave the indie rock look out of it. my 2 cents. although it should always be purely about the music, metal is metal. not indie rock. and yea, I also like some indie rock bands. let's start an indie rock band but dress up like a black metal prick and see how the indie rockers feel about it? why not? who's down? /douchebaggery metal elitism |
