Headbangers?

Speaking of metal and concerts, I'm going to a Paradise Lost concert in a week. This is something that I've waited for many years to do, though it would probably be more fun if I was able to do it all those years ago...

Nevertheless, has anybody been to one of their concerts lately? Do they still play the old material (as in pre-One second songs)?

[A.Saturnus]

As for the female bit...I'm sure you know of plenty of crappy or mediocre bands that only get attention for being female.

Yes, of course.

[GoreBag]

Yes, of course.

So you see my point when I say that it shouldn't even be mentioned that metal musicians are chicks?

Still looking for more Astarte, but I wound up with more Menhir, Gorgasm and Otyg. Funny how things work out..

Well, I saw them 2 weeks ago. They played a set of about 100 minutes. I tought it was a great concert. But if you're looking to hear a lot of old songs I think you'll be dissapointed. They played True Belief, As I Die and 2 songs from Draconian Times. But they played the new album almost completely (it is an album release tour after all), and it sounded great. Their latest album also is great IMO.
Oh, and be there on time, the support band Orphaned Land really rules, they have a very "special" sound.

Thanks for the info.
Well, 4 songs are better than nothing. I haven't heard their last album, or any of them after One Second, but finally seeing True Belief live would alone be worth it anyway.

Bump.

Goin' to see Immolation and Skinless tonight, with local openers Deämon and Sordid. If any of you are interested, I highly recommended acquiring some Deämon if you can. It's delicious.

And a note for the English metalheads out there: Some guy apparently dug up some old Grind Corps (another band from my city) and pressed it to vinyl for a split with Anal Cavern, released only in Britain. Keep your eyes peeled for it, and if you would be so kind, buy me a second copy!

One of the best British metal acts at the moment imo are Sikth. Some of their tunes sych as Pussyfoot, Hold my finger and Such the fool are completely badass
