a few random thoughts from a scrambled brayne

me n canadian went to see local thunder-rockers Dixie Witch and touring onslaught High on Fire last night. DW were great, the middle band Mastadon were real lame, and HoF were fucking brutal (that's meant in a good way)!
High on Fire set fuc*ed with my brain cells, i literally had to walk around and get some fresh deep-ellum air to regain consciousness! I had lost all sense of time, plus i think the bass maked my heart beat skreww all up. Again, that's meant in a good way.

In closing, here is a link for a band ATHIEST MEAT FRONT, one of these extreme-goth, Crowley-influenced ritual-slash-live-body-modification bands. Their schtick is that they throw meat, bones, carcasses, blood, and other viscera around during their show, burn and fry these carcaii, consume it all, and plus they have topless chicks covered in blood. Tell your friends. Though I'll admit they do raise the level of what is acceptable and/or shocking during a live performance- and for that i begrudgingly give them credit- i cain't say as im all that interested in seeing any of that live. Am I wrong to think thhat I don't need to hang by meathooks and smear guts over my face to know that I'm alive? Anyway, apparently their cd also consists of the sounds of animal carcasses being torn, fried, burned, bleeded, etc. I can deal with the record; in fact that's JUST the kind of thing i'd enjoy playing up here at smu while frat boys are running around whining about their Go$d-given right to drink beer.
