My friend's Cliff (drums), Waleed (guitar), Matt (bass), and Alex "Desecrator" Gomez (guitar + vocals) local brand of extreme metal sure to singe the eyebrows off every face who dares to step too close, IncendianT are getting better, louder, and tighter sounding with each show they play. Tonight will certainly be no exception as they luckily got hired on this bill at the last minute, due to Cattle Decapitation having dropped off.
Tonight, Friday September 29, 2006, Salt Lake City Utah, at the Ritz by Sugarhouse, is sure to be indisputably the sickest and best metal show put on all year long. And the best part? The Ritz doubles as a bowling alley. OH yeh baby, we're goan take the metalheads bowling, with pitchers of cold beers and increasingly reckless debauchery after every band.
Also playing: SIX FEET UNDER and one other band I can't remember the name, "Abysmal Something".
Poland's own DecapitateD, infamous purveyors of lightning-fast uberbrutalic technical deathmetal are here in Salt Lake City to flash their steel and take heads. This is the single most eagerly anticipated deathmetal band for me to see live. I am completely psyched for this. I intend to bring my 10" vinyl of their sick short album THE NEGATION to have signed.
South American deathmetal at its finest: Brazil's KrisiuN is guaranteed to proceed with an unholiest of thrashing twi-edged guitar attack, with razorloop wires of strung taut leads guaranteed to sever heads from moshing bodies and set depraved souls free of their mortal coils, musically speaking that is.
Killer Show Disrupted by Headliners:
But DECAPITATED put on one helluva mean, short set on Friday night, @The Ritz !
I was right up there headbangin' my mohawk w/the longhairs, Poland's DECAPITATED fit the bill as we nearly banged our heads clean off.
I got these pics of MARTIN, their bass player, check out the TOOL Lateralus T-shirt he was wearin' : 
Martin was so sick on that bass, these pictures are actually perfectly focused. They were that fast.
Man, what a RIP them SIX FEET UNDER Tour Managers were. Fuckin' A-holes cut INCENDIANT off the bill at the *last minute* My buddies were onstage, right after the first (real shitty) band finished, gettin ready, Cliff's drumkit was all set up, and they get CUT *mimes slash across neck* And get this - the next band uses Cliff's drumkit. We were pretty pissed - esp Alex (guitar/vocal for Incendiant) who started screaming at the tour manager, whilst I casually strolled out through the 'artist' exit & stood right by, looking pissed & mean w/my one whited-out eye, mohawk, & HANK III/Goatwhore camo patch jacket & MorteM -T. The picture of renegade evil, lol. A few of us were shouting "INCENDIANT!" like we meant business. Unfortunately (we felt at the time), the riot never happened.
Out back in the parking lot, all the usual guilty parties in black were knocking back Scotch Whiskey, PBRs, Jaeger, you name it. I was shooting back shots of whiskey from I don't know how many different bottles. The Jaeger kept me focused.
Then Brazil's own infamous Krisiun went on - - they were pretty much the highlight of the show, matching Decapitated w/their own darker, more classic deathmetal riffs, between those 2 bands, the entire evening was a blazing success (despite the fiasco engendered by the greedy Six Feet Under crew).
Turns out: Six Feet Under wanted as big a cut of the pie as they could manage, as well as hoggin as much stage time as they could. And they suck, man. I mean, I wandered in there halfway thru their set, ya know -?- to check it out. Chris Barnes has dropped a few rungs down that ladder of underground fame he earned while fronting CC, I'm afraid. His grunts were not much more than demented gorilla spasms, and every once in a while, this horrendous "SCREEEEEEEEE, SCREEEEEEEEE" noize that sounded like a wounded fax-signal, although you couldn't tell how (or if) he did it - not terribly impressive - and back out front of the venue, we were all making fun of him for it. Miming that he was strangling himself from a noose made out of his own 3-ft long dreads, mincing that "SCREEEEEEE" sound, and we'd all chime in w/ludicrous "RuggaRuggaRugga" parodies. All joking aside the man is a legend on the scene so it just made it more wrong that he is scraping low w/Six Feet Under, who that night put on one of the worst dm shows I've seen. I know we all have off nights but c'mon.
