Hatebreed.

Went to the HATEBREED show last night which was a surreal experience to say the least. Haven’t been to a “rock” show in a while. Last one I think was either Rage Against The Machine or the “Alternative Nation” tour back in the 90’s with Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth and Foo Fighters. It was really f’n weird to say the least. Good thing there were a lot of familiar faces in the crowd though I got to say that the Pulp crowd unfortunately overshadowed the hardcore crowd contingent.

The Hatebreed set was sonically great. It was like watching straight out of the DVD or something. They played a long set to make your 1000 bucks worthwhile. Materials from Satisfaction to the newest materials. Crowd went apeshit to every song. Too many assholes in the crowd for me. I enjoyed the sets of the opening acts greatly (except Intolerant) but was disappointed when each band just played 3 – 4 songs. What the fck is wrong with that you ask me? These bands traveled from as far as Baguio City and Cebu just to play this show and they can’t even play a full set? Fck that sht. Good job done by Bison, Piledriver and Queen City Crew!

Currently listening to: Onyx ‘Bacdafucup’
