Let Us Slay!

On Sunday I went to go see DevilDriver and Gwar with America. The show people at the show were kinda weird. Legacy of Disorder played first and there was no pit (but they were meh so it was understandable). Then Cancer Bats played and I've seen them before when they opened for Cannibal Corpse at the metalfest back in 2009. Let me tell you something about them, they weren't that good back then and still aren't now. What was funny was that no one was really moshing, I mean a few were, but their music isn't really that fast or anything really worth moshing in the first place and the singer was like "Man, I thought for a second there we weren't at a metal show," and the first thing that popped into my head was "Man, I almost thought you were a metal band for a moment there." They ended with their cover of "Sabotage," just like they did 3 years ago and it's still sadly their best song because it just doesn't sound as bad as the rest. DevilDriver came on stage and opened with "End of the Line" like always. It was my fifth time seeing them live and it's just as magical every time. The extra energy that Dez puts into the songs makes them just as awesome live as when you put one of their cds in and rock out. It still makes me sad that they no longer play "Grinfucked" and "Just Run" live, but they played them both plus "These Fighting Words" the first time I saw them live, so I'm never complaining. The pit was fucking brutal. BRUTAL!!! People were walking out with blood all over their faces. I got thrown in there and took a ridiculous shot to the ribs that suffocated me for a second and then I couldn't even get out of the pit hahaha. Gwar came out and they were just awesome. Lots of fake blood everywhere, entertaining show with lots of head chopping and hilarious dialog. Even Super Cyborg Jesus made an appearance and we got to see his head and arms get ripped off. Woo. They might be as heavy as most metal bands, but their live show is just spectacular. That is real entertainment right there.

I also bought a DevilDriver sweater. :D can't wait to start wearing it...next year when it decides to get cold haha.

Enjoy your day everyone.
