Some days have passed by now, but I still can't believe I cought Italians ARTHEMIS live performance right here here in Tokyo, at CRESCENDO live house, Sunday 31th May!
Actually, I came to know they played at Meguro last week, but before checking out details, I would have never suspected they were touring live-house across Japan! And luckily I managed to get my ass just to their last date!
They delivered a great performance: kicking everybody's ass and inundating a crowded house with pure Italian metal. Never seen so many people in there... so many I couldn't even move to take pics! Records are unfair: you have to experience them live. It's is just like for Maiden: live is better! Alessio's screaming, Paolo fire drumming, Matteo bass pounding and Andrea's axe-grinding... When party was over, Cpt. had some drinking & chatting with them (pic too, of course), with much support by various fans & girls who indulged longer around.
Set list as follow:
1. Fright Train
2. Rise Up From The Ashes
3. Fire Set Us Free
4. Arthemis
5. Electric Fire
6. Angels In Black
7. Time To React
8. Black Society
9. Mr. Evil
10. Death Rider (cover by Anthrax)
Encore
11. Thunder Wrath
12. Quest For Immortality
Before them on stage we had: ELENDIRA /GUILTYS LAW /RED HOUSE / GALACTICA PHANTOM . I'll be honest: when I went there I couldn't care less of anybody different from Arthemis! But as usually happens at Crescendo, whatever you pic in these gig, you get good tunes for your night. And so it was this time too. One in particular got me really insane... Red House. Oh, boys... Check out their site and their samples, 'cause their music is really stuff for bangers! And the performance too: 100% energy, groovy tunes and hell-of-a-singing. So bad they do so few gigs!
