| _____________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 11:27am - arilliusbm ""] Yea, no MA date. Also, thread looks like "Thy Primordial." Wish they played here too. |
| _________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 11:31am - Mark_R ""] Yeah I tried to see if I could edit out "the" from the subject line. Oh well. I'm going to go to the NC date on the 13th. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 11:55am - Ghoulash ""] yup |
| _______________________________ [Jul 19,2012 12:50pm - Yeti ""] i'm wondering if these bands keep skipping MA because they all played the Palladium and sounded like/were treated like shit. Primordial sounded awful last time they played there. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 19,2012 12:50pm - Yeti ""] i should say that it was the sound, not them, that was shit. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 1:00pm - arktouros ""] i thought they sounded great but i had fanboy glasses on. |
| ______________________________ [Jul 19,2012 1:13pm - Yeti ""] hahaha you could even see the lead singer looking off stage at the sound with the WTF look. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 2:21pm - Spencer ""] I was front row at that show - I went for Moonsorrow, and came out LOVING Primordial. I felt the sound was great where I was, at least. As for this tour, i'm already planning to carpool down with Mark(singer of Myopia) and some other local friends, planning on catching one of the shows - we haven't decided which one yet. Also, in addition to Primordial / While Heaven Wept / Cormorant... some dates also feature Vektor, and the Rochester date features Orodruin, Blood Ceremony, Nokturnal Hellstorm, Demontage, and Macabre... Yes, THE Macabre. And if any of you care, While Heaven Wept also announced "As far as the rest of the USA, at least WHW is already working on plans for 2013...however, we will NOT be performing in any of the same States as this run...so don't miss these if you're in the vicinity!" I'm imagining that one While Heaven Wept headline show will be awesome though. It's also worth noting that WHW and Cormorant AREN'T playing Progpower USA, only Primordial is. (WHW played two previous years, so yeah) |
| ________________________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 2:25pm - DUCK DUCK GOOSE ALERT ""] SOUND THE ALARMS |
| __________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 2:28pm - Spencer ""] Yup. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 2:30pm - Mark_R ""] I've flaked on three chances to see WHW, I can't miss another one. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 2:31pm - Spencer ""] My mistake, the only date that features Vektor is the NC show on September 13th. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 3:00pm - Mark_R ""] You've been to Progpower? |
| __________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 3:06pm - Spencer ""] Oh, no. I was supposed to go last year, but then I was having money problems. But, between Arcturus dropping off the festival and Voyager returning a few months ago with Rhapsody of Fire, I feel less bad about it. I was going to go to this upcoming Progpower in September just for Primordial and because Symphony X are obviously going to play The Divine Wings of Tragedy album in entirety, but now with a Primordial tour and still no OFFICIAL confirmation of that SX set, i'm content with missing this year's progpower as well. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 7:20pm - quintessence ""] One of the most genuine bands around. I will try and make NY gig for sure. Its well worth it. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 7:32pm - arilliusbm ""] quintessence said:One of the most genuine bands around. Well put. They put their emotion into their music. They write great riffs. They have their own sound. They are finally getting the respect they deserve over here in the states. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 19,2012 8:30pm - chrisREX ""] Looks like I'm going to Rochester. FUCK yeah. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 23,2012 2:52pm - dreadkill ""] i've been looking forward to another chance to see primordial, but i'm not driving out of new england to do it. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 23,2012 2:58pm - AndrewBastard ""] anyone going to the NY show(s) from MA let me know...I want to scum a ride. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 23,2012 3:07pm - arilliusbm ""] Going to Cleveland. Fuck your east coast dates. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 1:52pm - DanOfBereavement ""] Wow. Bummer its far away. Maybe a bus trip? Anyone down? |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 1:54pm - AndrewBastard ""] i may be, dan |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 1:59pm - arilliusbm ""] I'm doing a Van trip to Ohio.. Going to OH necause its on a Sat and I dont have to take a work day off |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 2:07pm - trioxin_245 ""] Primordial is meh and I've never even heard of While Heaven Wept. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 2:31pm - Mark_R ""] trioxin_245 said:Never heard of While Heaven Wept. They share a member with Twisted Tower Dire |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 2:55pm - trioxin_245 ""] I'm gonna check em out in a bit. I'm not a huge Primordial fan but I'd definitely go see them if it were closer. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 2:57pm - arilliusbm ""] trioxin_245 said:I'm gonna check em out in a bit. I'm not Irish. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 3:14pm - DanOfBereavement ""] I took a bus to see Novembers Doom in NY a few years back and it was actually stress free and cheap. I'd consider that. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 3:46pm - trioxin_245 ""] arilliusbm said: trioxin_245 said:I'm gonna check em out in a bit. I'm not Irish. aren't they from VA? unless you're referring to Primordial, but that's not the band I was talking about BRO |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 3:51pm - arilliusbm ""] Yea, I thought you havent checked out Primordial enough. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 4:11pm - chrisREX ""] Primordial are one of my top 5 bands in metal today. They are pretty unique and it took me a little time to really get into them. But once you get in tune with them, nothing else really packs the emotional punch like a Primordial song. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 6:37pm - Burnsy ""] Saw primordial at some fest a few years ago. I was thoroughly impressed. One of my favorite vocalists. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 6:42pm - arilliusbm ""] Some fest. Must have been that queer "Pagan Fest" |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 6:50pm - Burnsy ""] Yeah, that one. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 6:55pm - arilliusbm ""] I went to that for them, they only played like 4 songs. there was nothing "Pagan" about that fest. Should have been called the "jig" fest. Or Primordial and better bands.. then the "Pagan" would have been correct. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 6:59pm - Burnsy ""] Yep. I think I went for ensiferum. Used to love that shit. Now I just want ugly black metal, bluegrass or jazz. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 7:03pm - arilliusbm ""] I love Ensiferum's s/t. That's one of the only cheesy finnish Spinefarm prog/power/viking albums I can take. "OMG WE LIKE STRATOVARIUS AND CAN DO HARSH VOCALS AND SHRED" - CheeseFinns |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 7:13pm - Burnsy ""] [img] |
| __________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 7:55pm - Spencer ""] Pretty sure you're confusing Paganfests - Primordial was the 2009 one which I attended, Ensiferum was the 2008 one? Or you could've seen Ensiferum any other number of times, them and Eluveitie and Tyr all tour(ed) way too much. Whereas i'm pretty sure Paganfest 2009 was the only Primordial USA tour, aside from like a one-off show in 2008 or something. Correct me if i'm wrong about that. I also know that Primordial was originally planned to open for Opeth on a North America tour at one point, but they couldn't get the funds to do it or something so they ended up not doing it. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 8:16pm - Burnsy ""] Yeah I have no idea. I saw primordial and they were great. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 8:18pm - chernobyl ""] shut up, burnsy. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 8:22pm - Burnsy ""] Lose to me in arm wrestling about it, chernomial. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 8:45pm - chernobyl ""] You and your Pagan magick.. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 24,2012 8:55pm - Burnsy ""] Don't let my seckret out, bro. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 25,2012 9:47am - dreadkill ""] i'm mad that this tour isn't coming here and mad that i don't have money to go see hammers of misfortune tonight. :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( |

| ________________________________ [Aug 29,2012 3:25am - Spence ""] ATTN Andrewbastard or anyone else who may be interested: I'm going to the Rochester show with Mark from Myopia and two others(Tony Castellano from RI, Valerie from CT) and we have one extra seat in the car. You'd have to either get to North Haven CT the morning of Sept 9th, or alternatively if you're going to Kreator on the 8th, you could crash at my place twenty minutes from Worcester and just bum a ride off me to CT. If anyone's interested, let me know. Tickets are 25 bucks, and gas money is appreciated. (Just to clarify, we only have one room for one more person in the carpool to Rochester) |
