Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 3, 2022 Author Paid Members Posted March 3, 2022 I remember pressing record on the VCR before going to do my shift at the local Bingo Hall at the time to catch this. It was a pretty big deal at the time, probably the first time most UK fans got to see any live footage of the band. Great memories. Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) Yeah I remember watching it. I’d been into them after hearing the demo to ‘Eyeless’ on one of the free Kerrang CDs a couple of years earlier, so seeing them on proper telly and not tucked away on MTV’s SuperRock at daft o’clock in the morning was a big thing. Evans then calling the song ‘Bleed & Wait’, my Dad just confused by the whole thing and my mum horrified that I listened to “devil music” Edited March 4, 2022 by WyattSheepMask Quote

I don’t remember much else from other than the Atari Teenage Riot track, although I will have liked whatever Neurosis track was on there Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 5, 2022 Author Paid Members Posted March 5, 2022 could have been, i definitely had that CD. Until quite recently, I still had most of the old magazine CD's. Quote
Merzbow Posted March 14, 2022 Posted March 14, 2022 The new Vein.fm album is a bit of a banger, ultra accessible well produced hardcore with nu-metal vibes but there's a lot more influences creeping in this time from all over the place. Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 20, 2022 Author Paid Members Posted March 20, 2022 Went to see In Flames last night. Pretty cool to see a band of their stature in a 200 odd cap venue in Bristol, they sounded fucking massive and the band were clearly enjoying playing in small, sweaty environment. Modern In Flames output is pretty divisive but there's no denying that material sounds great live. Hell of a night ?? Quote
Paid Members waters44 Posted March 20, 2022 Paid Members Posted March 20, 2022 Where was that @Egg Shen ? One of my best nights out was King 810’s first UK show at a venue called The Thekla in Bristol. Me and my mate were walking around trying to find it until we saw someone carrying a drumkit onto a boat and realised the show was on the boat! Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted March 20, 2022 Author Paid Members Posted March 20, 2022 Yeah, it was The Thekla ? genuinely one of my favorite venues, the sound in there is ridiculous, its like a shrunken o2 Academy that just so happens to be on a boat. Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 Static X and Hatebreed have both cancelled all of their European dates for the year, meaning that both have cancelled their Bloodstock appearances for the second year running. Dark Tranquillity have been announced as the new headliner for The Sophie Lancaster Stage for the Sunday night, with a replacement for the Saturday Night Sophie Stage headliner to be announced soon. Tallah, who were also due to play the Saturday on the Sophie Stage, have also cancelled their appearance and have been replaced by Defects Also it was announced yesterday that Slyvia Lancaster, mother of Sophie Lancaster and founder of the Sophie Lancaster Foundation, has passed away following a period of ill health.

Merzbow Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) Awful news, Sylvia has done great work over the years. Wasn't there talk of them cutting ties with Bloodstock last year? Vicky Hungerford is a pretty horrible person, from transphobia to victim blaming SA survivors it's wild that they can have a stage dedicated to Sophie. Edited April 13, 2022 by Merzbow Quote

I don’t think they officially said there were going to cut ties following Vicky’s moronic comments earlier this year, but they certainly seemed to threaten to. Vicky has since made a low-key return to Twitter and that SLF will be at Bloodstock this year as well as announcing a new partnership with Derbyshire LGBT+*, so it seems as though fences have been mended. * https://www.bloodstock.uk.com/news/bloodstock-reveals-bands-club-nights-plans-with-sohie-lancaster-foundation As for the stage being named after Sophie, when Carcass played in 2014 Jeff Walker pointed out the irony of that when you had Faust playing in Emperor in the headline slot, which seemed to go over most people’s heads when he said it.

wordsfromlee Posted April 18, 2022 Posted April 18, 2022 The new Greyhaven record is great. If you like bands like Letlive, Every Time I Die and Glassjaw then get this in you. Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 22, 2022 Author Paid Members Posted April 22, 2022 bloody hell, was anybody a fan of Symposium back in the 90's? this was my shit when I was 16. The band are probably a year or so older than me, so when they were around they didn't seem young to me, but look at that picture, they were wee nippers! Quote
