Saw Skeletonwitch on Thursday. Some shitty local folk metal band opened up for them and that was awful. Favorite local metal band, Beneath Oblivion, played next. Their new album is such good material. It actually got a review on metalsucks.net. But yeah Skeletonwitch. Ummm wow rehashed thrash metal isn't that interesting to see live. They're doing their thing and I'm supposed to get excited about it; I don't dislike Skeletonwitch but I really never got that into it. Maybe I wasn't drunk enough or maybe the guy being a dick next to me ruined it but seriously, they have fun riffs and yeah those are enjoyable and lead singer guy (forget his name) was pretty cool but I've seen better shows.
Arsis in a few weeks. Possibly the Judas Priest tour if I could afford it or end up getting a credit card before then. DEP/Mastodon/Red Fang will be two hours away in November. Can't afford to see BTBAM, given these other options. May have to skip Deafheaven to see these other shows, or may see them because it's all I can afford. And iwabo after Thanksgiving and TUI in Dec. So excited. Get my mosh on. Hells yeah.
Edit: Young Widows was added to the Deafheaven show and so I know nothing about Russian Circles but definitely need to go now.
