huwbacca Posted January 14 Posted January 14 wait.... Medulla Nocte?????? does anyone know their lineup. Thought they hated one another by the time they split up. Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted January 17 Author Paid Members Posted January 17 I'm wondering that myself. Two of the original lineup have passed away (Neil the guitarist and Jammer the drummer). Going from Paul Catten's facebook posts thing is all about celebrating the first album. He's re-releasing it re-mixed and re-mastered too to coincide, I can't wait to hear it. I'm hoping to catch them live a couple of times on the run, not sure how Catten will match the intensity of those original shows, he was a lunatic. About 10 years back he toured with as a band as 'A Man Called Catten' and they played Medulla Nocte material, I never went and always regretted it. Quote

I had the pleasure of seeing Nocte a couple of times in dingy venues back in the day and Jammer was really nice when i talked to him. I'll be keeping my eye out for the remaster of a Conversation alone as its an album to this day that's still in my regular rotation. Wont be able to swing a trip over the Atlantic for that gig though so im hoping it pops up on youtube. Quote
Merzbow Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Earth cancelled an entire gig in Bologna because there was a Palestine flag in the venue and I'm not actually surprised, Dylan Carlson has gone down the weirdo conspiracy nut pipeline over the past few years like too many old arse Doom Metal guys. Never ask Matt Pike about his politics, for example. Quote
King Mal the Glorious Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Saw Bell Witch and Aerial Ruin doing their Stygian Bough Collab last night and it's by far the loudest set I've heard in my life. Felt like every molecule of my body was vibrating. How I can still hear clearly today is a mystery. Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted February 7 Posted February 7 (edited) Mind made up, off to the show now. They were excellent last time I saw them and I forgot that 40 Watt Sun was opening, so that’s swung it Edited February 7 by WyattSheepMask Quote
Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted February 13 Paid Members Posted February 13 Just recently started writing for Noizze's online publication. First review is up for Gogol Bordello's new album, which is a banger in parts and a little laboured in others for those who fancy a read. https://www.noizze.co.uk/gogol-bordello-we-mean-it-man-album-review/ Quote
The Gaffer Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Stumbled on a stream of Mayhem playing Wacken in 2024 and I've decided my new least favourite trope in metal is legacy bands using a hype video of their history as a live show intro. There's something so corny about it. It's something for WWE, not a currently active band everyone in the building's already familiar with and is about to see in the flesh in a few minutes anyway.

Merzbow Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Did they use *that* photo of Dead being.... dead? I wouldn't be surprised if they still try to capitalize on that era even though it's so far removed from what they are now. Quote
King Mal the Glorious Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Saw them doing that set at Brutal Assault last year. No dead Dead photo. Thought the videos were fine given that it was a set covering their whole discography from new to old. Quote

Someone’s been repressing Dawn of the Black Hearts on vinyl with *that* cover recently. It keeps showing up on my Vinted and eBay feeds Edited February 15 by WyattSheepMask Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Berzan Önen has been unveiled as the new vocalist for Nevermore. He’s a singer based in Turkey who’s played in numerous small bands for around 17 years, but this will be his first major foray into a bigger band. These clips are a few years old, but here he is tackling the Nevermore tracks ‘The Obsidian Conspiracy’ and ‘Enemies of Reality’ They’ve also released a 40 mini doc about the reformed Nevermore Quote
cobra_gordo Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Final bands announced for Arctangent including The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza who I became obsessed with in around 2005 thanks to finding them on Myspace. Cardiacs playing the same day as us so will be nice to check out. Quote

Mass of the Fermenting Dregs sounds very Jeremy and Super Hans. Edit: just seen itoldyouiwouldeatyou are playing. Their I Am Not Your Fault EP helped me get through a really rough patch about 10 years ago. Great band. Edited February 26 by SuperBacon Twiddly emo Quote

See also: Erotic Secrets Of Pompeii, Scorpion Milk and Meatdripper. There's some great names all round on there tbh. I've just discovered Skloss and I reckon their set will be belting but at the same time, we'll have been on the site 5 days by that point and I'll probably want to just go home and recover. Not sure I'll have the strength to watch any bands that day, including Chat Pile who I absolutely love. Quote
