Yesterday we had an astonishing night with the guys in Sunstroke at the local Youth House, thanks to the organizers, Disturbance Booking (cheers Alex!), the band Electrozombies (Gracias !) for sharing the gear and close friends who made it special for us. Beside the hectic and disharmonical situations (a lack of things, some technical problems as usual) we opened the concert with our nearly 30 min. set containing new songs and a cover of Napalm Death's classic, "Suffer the Children". Due to some over gained microphone experiences, we brought a harsh, trashsy, noisy set to the audiance. Then, the Living Dead Army prepared to play, it was nice to see them first time, their dark image went well together with the horror punk styled music, not really my cup of tea but they sounded good. I noticed that their vocalist Orlok made nice changes to his voice, fit simply into the music. The last band was the Electrozombies from Chile, Santiago. After some tuning they began to slaughter us all with their crust-sludge death metal like music, which can not be describe with words, it was really heavy (a wall of sound !) and emotinal in a painful way. Paolas drumming style was unique, (that rider cymbal hits...) the powerful bass themes of Marcela and Comegatos guitar work made a whole mesmerizing black energy that burst out honestly, simply punished us. Well balanced song structures, a powerful, perfect delivery, what else we needed ? I think we were pretty satisfied and felt somehow lucky as taking part in this sonic experience. I hope they enjoyed the gig and the cordiality as much as we did. It was really nice to meet real, friendly people, I can not be more thankful for it. I am still under the influence of the last night... we wanted doom with destruction, and we got it.
We are cleansed.
