the black dahlia murder: with the recent hardships in the bdm line up (bass player and singer), it was amazing to see the turn around time for them to be back on tour. I was confused at first about the bass player, but then I realized that he was in Set Ablaze (who I saw with bdm). With only a week and a half to teach the new guys, they played basically the new cd, 7 tracks. The new bass player fit in to the sound, but the singer... he was a good fill for the tour, but he didn't have the range/stage-pressence Trevor did. I believe he's just a fill in for the tour. The bass player, on the other hand, will mostlikely be permanent. It's great to see these guys doing so well and having such good successes so quickly. Can't wait to see them come around again... maybe around halloween

evergrey: it took me 1/2 the concert to convince myself that the singer wasn't from sentenced. They played pretty good but it's not really music I'm into so I don't know. Power Metal usually doesn't do much for me. There were a lot of synth that sounded straight out of the 80's. They have a new CD out, Recreation Day which i listened to when I got home. It sounded a lot better than they did live, but I guess that is to be expected.

hate eternal: they started off with the thunderous "king of all kings", but after a song or two the guitarist's, Erik Rutan, tubes sort of went so you couldn't heard anything he was doing. He kept having to go behind the infamous Hate Eternal banners to work some magic on them. After that technical difficulty, I guess the sound board guy was live mixing the vocals. He must have been looking in the other direction cause the vocals weren't there are few times. With the Departure of bass player jared anderson, they got a new guy, Randy Piro, who fits into the band well and has learned all the songs.

arch enemy: from the dramatically rushing out on stage to giving horns and walking out, AE didn't really let up. This show was suppose to be upstairs, where they have headlined before, but they put it down stairs and the pull was enough to make the room look pretty full. It's great that they came so far as to play for that many people. As always it's awesome to see them and to hear some of the new tracks (from Anthems Of Rebellion) live for the first time. I'm not a fan of the vocal compression and vibrato on the new CD, but live, that isn't present, leaving them nice and raw. The best new track they played was "Dead eyes see no future". The nile-esque intermission of the song is great.

They also mixed in the best of the old tracks with Angela rocking out, playing with the microphone stand as if it were a guitar, leaving the boys in the band to run around the stage and rial up the crowd. They are coming back in Oct 18th supporting Slayer. there will definitly be pictures up after that.
