Have a great time phlegmmy. I'm sure you will.
By the way, Chris Corsano played with them when I saw them, and he won't be when you do! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Sunburned were totally uncanny, thoroughly one of the best things I've ever seen, maybe the best even. The stage was full of all kinds of crap from severed limbs of a fashion mannequin to sticks and pots. They were banging them in a manner that seemingly had no direction but then a song of repeating rhytms and percussions grew out of it. The band also were doing quite traditional rock tunes, which were time to time a bit boring, but the percussive randomness and crazed-out singer/drummer/whatever saved a lot.
I bough a load of their albums and cd-rs and chatted awhile with them, nice guys too. Circle on the other hand were a mere disappointment. Probably for the same reasons T&B mentioned in that other thread. Their set was biased on the kraut-heavy metal side of theirs, which didn't exactly fit the musical context of the night. They started out with an intro that built up into rhytmic noise and ended the set with a heavy as fuck stoner -ish song. Those were ace but during the middle section of the set, which was the same they've been playing throughout the year, apparently, it started to get a bit boring. I feel bad bitching about this, because Circle is a band not capable of mediocrity and compered to all the other bands (except shotm, obviously) they still were really fucking great. This might be the most interesting thing though... Before the gig, probably right after the soundcheck the bands were improvising together, and did it for quite a long time. I saw maybe the last 20 mins. of this, but few of my friends sat through the whole thing and were amazed by it. According to them it was better than anything later that night. Apperently it was recorded, and who knows if it'll be released someday... |

They didn't show it when I saw them (two weeks ago), but that wasn't really their show. What was it like?

it was really cool... the film was a bit weird and arty, and not the best possible quality but they really played great music to it, sort of ritual psychedelic groove, not too unlike the original classic angus maclise soundtrack. there's of course the DVD out now, with the original soundtrack as well as new soundtracks by sunburned and acid mothers temple.

I have "the mylar tantrum", yes. I wasn't keen on it at first, but that was before I saw SBHOTM live, and I really must listen again.

lordi rules of course... well, just kidding but it was sweet to finally win the eurovision song contest, we finnish people have always taken it very seriously and we've used to being last everytime, "finland zero points"...
from sunburned albums my fave is jaybird but i have many of their albums that i've only listened to once or twice... so they're definitely better as live band. |

oh, lordi definitely rules... they're the best thing that could ever happen to the eurovision song contest.
my favourite sunburned i've heard is headdress but everyone's suggesting no magic man so i'll try that one next. |

I wish I'd bought more of the CDRs now, but I didn't have much cash left.

i bought two cd-rs (5 euros each) and complexion. i was thinking about getting the thunderbolt pagoda as well, but didn't in the end (it was 20 euros i think). cash reasons indeed.

I bought the first CD (purple cover), a t-shirt and a Keith Fullerton Whitman LP, and I was given a free CDR by an offshoot band (I can't say who, it has no name on it), but I'd also bought a load of other stuff at a record stall run by the concert organisers, so I was pretty skint by the end of the evening.

What was the shirt like? Was it printed over another old shirt? I really liked that idea.
