Really cool stuff too. from my twatter: Bellows: crushing doomy flowing noisy atmospheric band. an old micced tuba as the bass & a large sax as the guitar. Incredibly original! Grayceon: wow, incredible performance! Intricate & flowing yet heavy & stripped down. Cello, guitar & drums provide a beautiful & big sound Bellows encore: They were asked to perform a song for the touring bands who arrived late & what a treat! They performed an incredibly boisterous, bombastic & really fun piece that got embedded in my head for at least an hour! Giant Squid: Similar to Grayceon but with a fuller sound & slightly more rockin' attitude. Still intricate, beautiful, flowing, exquisitely composed songs. Soft & soothing parts that morphed into almost thrashy sections then to full bodied prog rock. Loon: The night ends w/ simple & crushing doom metal w/ black metal & clean vocals. Large rumbling chords & sloth like pace. Excellent! Overall: One of the most interesting & rewarding evenings of metal! Proof that metal can be beautiful & creative while still being heavy. |
