Saw Rammstein supported by Combichrist on Feb 2nd


Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt the best concert Ive ever been to. Combichrist were good, banging electro metal similar to Front Line Assembly but Rammstein were just stunning. The music was amazing and the pyrotechnics and stage set up were of the highest quality. Fantastic show.

Mastodon in Wolverhampton. Great gig, they played Crack the Skye in its entirety and then followed up with a best of from the other albums. No crowd interaction though, but when the music's that good perhaps you don't need it.

Ive struggled to get into Mastodon, but a fair few friends rate them highly.

Ive never been arsed about crowd interaction personally, as you say so long as the music is good who gives a shit?

Last concert I went to was quite a while ago, I mostly go to festivals. It must have been W.A.S.P or Venom.

Until Crack the Skye I couldn't get into Mastodon but that album really sold me. I think it's the prog elements that they incorporated as I'm pretty into my prog too.

On the subject of Rammstein who you mentioned above, I saw them in the Velodrome in Berlin back in 2004 - unbelievable stage show, one of the best live acts I've ever seen and pyros galore. I was disappointed with the new album though, the previous four were much better and I'm not even including Rosenrot as it was essentially a (terrible) collection of songs that didn't make Reise, Reise.

Rammstein overall are a great band, but the last album really let them down I felt although Rammlied and Ich Tu Dir Weh are both reasonable, if only with the latter for the very eerie start up!

We must agree to disagree, I think the new album is fantastic, there are some really great tunes there. Rosenrot, with the exception of Benzin was disappointing though.

Screw that

I say...PISTOLS AT DAWN.

Pistols are for wimps.............


Its cannon or nothing
