May 9th Cephalic Carnage + Cryptic Warning (cd release) and more[views:20172][posts:174][show listing] ____________________________________ [May 10,2005 2:48pm - soilworker ""] great friggin show thanks so much to joe for hooking me up with the cds that was great. hanging out with cephalic carnage was so sick. |
| _______________________________________________ [May 10,2005 2:59pm - slowlypeelingtheflesh ""] Abhorred- Pretty good stuff, I liked it..first time ive heard more stuff Random Acts- AWESOME GUYS, thanks for getting us on your list..me and sean had to jet for the train right after so we couldnt stick around Cryptic Warning-I joined Al Ravage with the "Warning" chant Cephalic Carnage-Really brutal, they were so good to finally see live |
| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 3:20pm - Hooker nli ""] Abhorred sounded better than I had ever seen them. Their singer is a fucking mad man. Definitely built for showmanship. Awesome voice too. Only shit I'd say is two things: Floor tuners and lead boosts, dudes. I had a blast during our set. The crowd seemed catatonic though. What can you do. Cryptic. Fucking Phil the machine. Back to back sets. Dave ridiculous as usual. I might as well play my guitar with my asscheeks. One of my favorite live sets I've seen in the past year or so definitely. Cephalic. Never got into them but I have a couple cd's that I traded with the guitar player. I'll be checking those out soon. They were a wall of noise but it was pretty intense and just fun overall watching the crowd. This show had me euphoric for hours afterwards. It was how things should be fucking done. Monday night and who gives a shit, metal, good crowd, good time. Fuck yes. |

Cephalic had the worst sound, it just sounded like a wall of noise and the vocals were hardly audible. I moved around to about 5 different locations with no luck. The VHS tape I have of them the last time they played the Mideast even sounds better. yeah, the sound did suck. it didnt even sound like shit was going through the PA. i was pissed too, cause Cephalic's sound was awful at NEMHF and that's why i wanted to see them again at the Middle East. last time I saw them there the sound was sick. |

| ___________________________________ [May 10,2005 5:00pm - pessimist ""] yes lead boosts would be fantastic |
| ______________________________________ [May 10,2005 5:22pm - damnose nli ""] lead boots would also be good! fucking awesome show all around. but I agree with Mr. Ravage, random acts could have picked a better Manowar song to cover |
| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 5:25pm - Hooker nli ""] We used to do Brothers of Metal Part 2. I personally would love to do Blood of My Enemies or the Power. What song would you have rathered? |
| ___________________________________ [May 10,2005 5:48pm - Al_Ravage ""] "Power" definitely... pow-wer...powa powa....pow-weeer...powa powa.....poweeeeeeeeer.....poweeeeeeeeeeeeeeer! Or "Outlaw"...Phil would love that..."Shot through the heart in the blink of an eye...buried up on boot hill...life is cheap while the bounty is high...so be ready to die!" |
| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 5:59pm - Hooker nli ""] STRONG WINDS!!! MAGIC MIST. |

| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 6:24pm - Hooker nli ""] haha the bass player in the crowd was key |
| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 8:53pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Tom, I never even saw you at the show. I saw and talked to the girl in the PORPHYRIA shirt (your gf?) but never saw you once. |
| _____________________________________ [May 10,2005 9:27pm - KeithMutiny ""] Tom was the girl in the Porphyria shirt, duh! FLASH! AH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! |
| _____________________________________________ [May 10,2005 9:32pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] this was one of the most solid shows i've ever been to; i usually don't like shows with only 4 bands, but each band was fucking awesome so i didn't mind. I had only heard abhorred once before this show, and i must say that seeing them live was fucking awesome. the groove in that band is awesome, keep up the good work. i hadn't seen RAOV in a long time, and they've improved 10fold since the last time...i'm loving the dual soloing. cryptic warning makes me want to kill myself because they are so amazing. the new shit is fucking great!!! reminds me of capharnaum mixed with cynic and of course the traditional CW style thrash. the new cd is fucking awesome by the way...i admire the fact that i didn't hear any 2nd guitar tracks under the solos or anything. that's confidence. thanks for getting me and metal ev on the guest list too! we owe you guyses one. cephalic carnage ruled, i don't have to go into detail; the bass player is easily the funniest musician ever. the king of the hill theme song made my night. |

I saw and talked to the girl in the PORPHYRIA shirt (your gf?) but never saw you once. HAHA, yeah man, WTF? my gf told me after that she had talked to you and I was like what the hell John was there? I had to avoid the merch area because I've been spending too much money, I still didn't see you. |
| _________________________________ [May 11,2005 2:54am - Anthony ""] This show was amazing. Abhorred: I fucking love this band, period. Their cd, the live show, all around they're great. My first time seeing them with Josh and he adds so much to their sound. RAOV: My favorite local band so Im biased, as always they played an awesome set. I couldnt hear too well because I was handling their and our merch table and sitting kinda outta the way. The new songs just keep getting better and better. The Maiden worship in Transfiguration is my favorite. Thanks so much for letting use your amps guys. CW: I rank this set as among the best experiences of my life and I will definitely never forget this. Thanks so much to everyone in the crowd for the tremendous support they gave us. CC: So good. Hard to hear the faster, grindier parts but I didnt care, it was still an amazing time. All really nice guys too. Thanks: to Joe for setting this up and Tom for the pics and everyone who came and supported us or bought our cd. |

Diddy, I wouldn't make the band! I was shockedy how many people were there for Abhorred, thank you all very kindly. RAOV - First time seeing them with Phil, very good. Great performance and showmanship by these boys, it seems to come quite natural for them as well. Cryptic Warning - Phenominial. I was pumped to see everyone into them so much. I pissed cause I lost my cd I bought, looked everywhere, FUCK!!! SNAKESTRIKE DOOOO IT! Cephalic Carnage - Awesome as usual. Peacemaker was killer. New material sounded great along with the standard classics. Had the biggest circle I've ever stood in at a show afterwards, woke up stoned, Lenzig is a class act. |
| _____________________________________ [May 11,2005 4:01pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Josh, you are good at losing CDs. :CD: I told you bring them to me and I will hold them and you can grab it at the end of the night. |

I bought it from CW, i have a feeling I let someone look at it and I was in the middle of something and just walked away looking for something/someone. SO many people at that show, sorry I didn't talk to most of yah as much as I wanted to. Sorry I didn't have enough weed for Blue and W3 tambien. |
