«What the hell does that mean...?»
That's what you're thinking, right now, uh? Cpt. knows everything!
Well, it should sound like Red/White Metal Confrontation Vol. 4 and it's the the gig I attended yesterday night at Ookubo Hot Shots live house, Tokyo.
It was a rather improvised detour, since I got an invitation just the day before by buddy Jouji, bassist of After Zero (thanks a lot, again!). And you know, Cpt. is always eager to witness After Zero live... particularly during holidays time (just started here, folks)!
Anyway, on the menu, all people from the neighborhood: DEATHABALONE, AFTER ZERO, SCREAMING SYMPHONY, SATANIC HERITAGE, HATRED ANGEL.
Very nice night. After Zero weren't the main dish, but kicked ass more than all the others put together! Energy, grinding and screaming as required by serious headbangers. Plus very active audience! Oh, yeah, they delivered a new, unreleased and yet unnamed track... temporarily called "Ninja".
Screaming Symphony and Satanic Heritage shouldn't be new to you, if you have been following the blog (cf. previous posts). Both awesome performer and quite enjoyable, despite not being my preferred style (speed/power the first, death/thrash the second).
Dethabalone is a young band with a rather unusual (as far as I witnessed around here) female bassist vocalist. A bit "It's a long way to the top... " [AC/DC quote], but I liked them (Arch Enemy-like).
Hatred Angel, sponsor of the night, were quite... how to say... displacing. A very impressive death appearance that revealed... three very nice guys! So nice that they delivered, together with more proper melodic-death stuff, a series of animetal-like tunes too!
One only regret: new house, new lights got me. Pics turned out to be very deluding. Particularly for never-standing still After Zero and Screaming Symphony (no one good)!
