Aborted Teams With Crypta In London
It's funny how one can be so familiar with a city and still find new places. Case in point, while I'd heard of it, I'd yet to attend a show at The Garage, a small venue in Islington, north London, despite visiting The Smoke for gigs pretty much every year since 2003. It was certainly a good time to finally check it out, as a collection of extreme metal's finest were gathering to tear through the night and wreck some eardrums in the British capital, beginning with Organectomy. Like the club, I was also unfamiliar with them and since they'd come all the way from New Zealand to perform in Blighty, the very least one can do is check them out. The Christchurch quintet has been going for around fifteen years now and has accumulated a decent catalogue to choose a setlist from in that time. While it wasn't to my personal taste, one can't argue with results, and these Kiwis really got the crowd in the mood for a night of extremity. Their sound is absolutely pulverising and they're not keen on letting their victims recover, delivering seven rounds of sonic fury to the London audience. As mentioned, they're not for everyone, but it's impossible to deny their drive, passion and talent. Give them a listen if you're a fan of slam.
Up next, we have a visit from across the pond in the form of The Zenith Passage. Once more, the crowd seemed delighted and this time, it was a more technical, daresay progressive affair. I couldn't help but marvel at the intricacies of their music and the skill in which it was delivered as they made their presence known. Fans of the band will tell you that they've been around for quite a while now, despite only dropping two full length albums, albeit seven years apart, but both of these records made a big impression on the tech-death world and upon hearing the songs live, it's easy to see why. It's always a sign of a good set when those at the front are going crazy, while the old timers at the back (of which I'm increasingly more willing to join) turn to each other and say, "... Bloody good!" I'm sure a lot of technical death metal fans are familiar with the five piece, but if not, there's no time like the present. Give their music a spin or better yet, catch them live yourself. More...
