Ivory Blacks : 19/02/08 - Abel Is Dying

In all fairness, I went to this gig only ever hearing a couple of the bands names. However I was pleasantly surprised with the gig given that I hadn't heard the names of them all.

First on: The Condemned. Group of 5 lads reigning from East Kilbride. In all honestly when I saw these guys I thought, look good, probably sound shite. Man was I wrong!

As soon as they started they had me glued. The lead singer had strong vocals and unlike most hardcore bands he could sing and scream. His screaming seemed effortless, like a walk in the park. Considering these guys had they’re first gig in Oct 2007, they seemed confident and strong through they’re whole set.

Next: Blessed Apostle. Another group of 5 lads from East Kilbride/Dumbarton.. Before these guys even went on stage, you could sense the lead singers arrogance.

HARDCORE. It's a genre, and a term you used a few times in the article, I assumed you'd be familiar with it.

5 of my My current faves are: Parkway Drive, Protest the Hero, Broken oath, By my Hands and Architects!
It really doesn't matter 'what i think' coz your obviously someone that knows everything and will disagree with anything that someone else has to say!
I've not listened to every single hardcore band ever released, therefor can't comment on the 'of all time'........however i'm sure your gonna fill me in???!!

I reviewed a gig (which is more than i've seen you do) deal wi it!

They are a Brighton band, sounds like Zeke/Motorhead. Which is my kinda thing. Al from (original) Torqamada plays Axe for them.

You know what fucks me off about this place, people tearing into users cause they think they are so much better. Must really put people off posting reviews. Shame those same people don't have the balls to submit there own reviews considering "how much superior knowledge" they have.

Well if you want a site where people spout off about things they have no clue about...

Peer review is the only way to try and bring any quality to sites like this.
