One of my friends even has a Mötley Crüe CD we play sometimes, so you can see I am no poser, that's for sure.Gogmagoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09685197156340996125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-47293917669196357942012-02-03T00:55:41.799-05:002012-02-03T00:55:41.799-05:00So how old are you?

It is more than okay to dislike a bands music; however berating them because they don't interest you on a personal level is something else altogether. Blogging reviews should contain suggestions, constructive criticism and the like, not some young pretentious metal fans worthless commentary; delete your blogger and get tumblr like the rest of the immature review debutantes have.<br /><br />Our reemerging metal community is about having fun, networking, enjoying the music; if not the music then the energy it provides.<br /><br />And no, I didn't like all of the music there, but the fact that people would stand on that stage and put their energy into what they do is very commendable. <br /><br />I hope Andreas continues to let metal bands play in his venue. <br /><br />Cheers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-8326164830801531452012-01-31T12:10:03.947-05:002012-01-31T12:10:03.947-05:00Saw enough to know I didn't like it and that w...Saw enough to know I didn't like it and that was enough.

We had an amazing time playing to a crowd that was VERY into our set, and truly enjoyed all the other bands who played. It was an awesome night of metal. Good to see Columbus's local scene growing and coming together. That is all.drivera620https://www.blogger.com/profile/15148513738010570986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-39398416117891665912012-01-30T05:33:56.542-05:002012-01-30T05:33:56.542-05:00The post just represents my opinions - and thanks ...The post just represents my opinions - and thanks for sharing yours. I will pass on the punch in the face, though. Not everyone likes everything and I, frankly, didn't care for a couple of the performances. It's that simple. That said, I'm still grateful ALL these guys are out there making metal and, even if any particular act is not my cup of tea, I'm equally thankful they have fans that keep the genre going.

You seem rather close minded when it comes to tbe music. THE CONQUERING did a good job dishing out some good beer drinking viking metal. And shall I remind you even Quorthon from BATHORY sang out of tune. But it still worked.<br /><br />As for your comment on ACHERON, are you crazy? Sure a few people left before they went on but the place was still packed. And if you would have stayed you would have seen they got the crowd more worked up than any other band. Seems like you focused negative more on their stage show and stage wear than anything else. Boring? I think not! And you should be punched in the face for saying they should learn something from PROSANCTUS INFERI. ACHERON stand on their own feet and for over 20 years these guys have be a part of the metal movement. Personally, my friends and I worship their Satanic music. Check out their youtube video, that is us singing along with them. ACHERON rules! <br /><br />So yes DISMEMBERMENT AND PROSANCTUS INFERI were great, but dont you dare put down THE CONQUERING our the mighty ACHERON! Metal comes in all kinds of styles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-30387872141664738052012-01-29T22:40:18.474-05:002012-01-29T22:40:18.474-05:00We have a demo of our older stuff, I can give you ...We have a demo of our older stuff, I can give you one next show we're at, I also have some newer demo stuff me and a friend recorded.-MattAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-2767217833113095742012-01-29T17:35:40.046-05:002012-01-29T17:35:40.046-05:00Andreas - Thanks so much for reading and leaving s...Andreas - Thanks so much for reading and leaving some comments! Overall, I was really pleasantly surprised with the venue and, again, the minor quibbles are easily overlooked when you consider what goes into putting on a show like this. As for musical taste, to each their own - regardless of what I like or dislike, I still am happy as hell there's an audience for metal overall (and am pleased at the variety within the genre).<br /><br />Matthew - again, loved you set overall and am really, really anxious to hear how you guys gel as a band. Drop me a line if you you get anything recorded and available for listening and I will be on the lookout for Beneath the Sea at future shows.Gogmagoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09685197156340996125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8404122288498972701.post-18882839488500374632012-01-29T17:04:54.001-05:002012-01-29T17:04:54.001-05:00Thanks for the review, I'm the lead guitarist ...Thanks for the review, I'm the lead guitarist in Beneath The Sea, we have been a band for about 2 years, but just got our second guitarist last month....and that being said are songs are pretty rough to play. Our next show is with Overkill and Belphgor, maybe will schedule another and ofcourse all the bands rules, Prosanctus Inferi and Beneath The Sea played with Acheron in July. It was cool to finally hear Dismemberment and The Conquering live.

If it is packed, well that is good and gives the musician a good feel. A better feel than playing for 100 people at Outland or where ever, as it looks empty. PBR......oh how I do NOT like it. BUT! The smallest number of guests in our bar are so called Hipsters. You ALL drink it. Metalheads, Rockabillys, Punks, Goths (No we are NOT just a goth bar)! As i only have this one fridge, I have to fill it up with what people like. The Conquering played their set very well. The harmonics and disharmonics were played just as they have to be when it comes to northern folklore tunes. (I know that, as I grew up with them). But right. Dismemberment and all the others blew me away. Jake and his Prosanctus Inferi, Beneath the sea....all where good. Acheron. They have a long history in Black Metal and at that time, the hate, dress and behavior was what you had to do. I am glad that Acheron still delivers that. I hope I can set up a quick show and I promose the room situation in the smaller bar with the merchtables will be better. We are working right now on two rooms in the back for storage ! :) Thanks for coming and mentioning the show, and stay in touch to see the improvements. Slowely, but surely!
