Fuck, fuck, fuck.
Fuck them once again.
And again...
... and again.
Those who arranged this gig is what I'm talking about - these morons contrived to find an awful place somewhere near the subhuman hell itself... And damn it, it's too far away from my home...
But ok, let's better talk about the gig and those who took part in it - and I fear, my story will be shorter than ever this time. Why? Read on and you'll know.
I came there (wanna know what club exactly? Fuck off. I DO NOT want to recall it's name... although it may be discovered in the title of this article anyway) a little bit late, when NEOTRUTH already were on the stage. Actually, there's not much should be said about this band, since this is rather mediocre one. Well, not the band, but music - it's neither stunning, nor crappy. Talking about their style, I would say that NEOTRUTH (they come from Tula (small provincial town near Moscow), of course if I'm not mistaken) play some kind of a mixture between death and doom metal... sometimes reminding me of early DARK TRANQUILLITY... although, less melodic and more brutal... as well as hundred times less exciting and thoughtout, though. Not a band, whom I'd give the highest rating, you know. There're hundreds of "neotruths" in Russia... and I could care less about them.
TRANSYLVANIA were the second ones - fortunately, this band (I saw them live for the first time, by the way) was better if comparing to NEOTRUTH. What would you think of a band named "Transilvania"? Yeah, some kind of that "vampiric-trend-fag-metal"... Well, this time I (and all those who thought the same) was wrong. TRANSILVANIA doesn't have anything to do with black metal - as well as death or doom. Their style is so-called "angry metal" (or "angry thrash"???), in the vein of finest tunes by PANTERA... top-notch when it comes to everything. Composition's talent, performance and attitude... I wouldn't mind if someone sends me their tape (or CD, or whatever) :)) .
Ok, STONEHENGE had to replace TRANSILVANIA - and they already entered the stage... but oops! Time has come for police to come in and tell everyone there's a bomb layed in the club! Some freak called them and told this crap... And yes, of course, it was a crap - but the whole gig was fucked up...
The whole crowd (mostly drunken) went outside and vented their spite upon the subhumans flocking near the club... Well, it's a pity, but in fact there was no real fight... just few bursts of fury geared against the first ones who came across... and, taking into account the fact that subhumans (i.e. those of Caucasus' origin) are guilty of few apartment houses' explosions - explosions which took away too many lives... therefore, it's obvious who was chosen as the "kick-ass" victim... Too bad, but this good intention ended in nothing - unfortunately.
Furthermore, the rumours say that it's someone of SATARIAL flock who called police and told about the bomb, hence cancelling the gig... If so, too bad for them... although I can't say anything for sure.
That's it, my friends.
Fuck those who arranged the gig....
Fuck those who called police...
Fuck the subhumans...
FUCK EVERY MOTHERFUCKING SCUMFUCK.
