Lynneaus,
that was a cool post. Ascendancy is always at shows passing out flyers, talking our shit up, passing out promos. we've played many shows doing the same process over and over as well. That's how I came to know about them! the bottom line is that metal is a tough business. nowadays kids really arn't taking a interest in undergound music, for the most part they're eating up everything on aaf and whatnot, which is fine I guess. It's good to see harder faster rolling pretty good, but unfortunately it's hard for local unsigned bands like us and even signed bands who are based on underground labels to be acknowledged by a large masses of people. I think if anything we're entering a scary period for metal, nonetheless a very critical one too. Metalcore is blowing up bigger and faster than anyone really anticipated. hopefully kids will stray from the trend seeking something heavier, faster, darker, more extreme. fucking nasty habits isn't really a death metal show anymore, wtf! I tell Rev this to much, but he's the only bastard left around these parts that takes a considerable interest in a scene that struggles to survive on a monthly basis.
so anyways, it's a bummer the show is on a monday night but what can you do, the tour stops here on monday, and that's the way the tour is. it shouldn't be a tradegy that it's not going to the palladium, for one it's right down the street from the joint and 2 this is something that you'll never be able to see at the palladium! fuck, it sucks people don't realize how good things are going around New England right now. there's a show every week you can go to. sometime there are two pissah shows in the same night! oh well, there's nothing glamorous about death metal. it's fucking war. it's a way of life. some days it sucks and some days it rules. but i always feel priviliged knowing that I can go to a show every week. i wish this could be like toronto or montreal or fucking europe but it's not. shows like this and bands that you'll find on this site are a testament to will of a folk who are dedicated and truely hell bent to assembling and preserving a scene that can command respect like the ones we've revered in our lives. all I can say is check out this show and see some sick bands that you might have not heard yet and probably won't see around here again for awhile. the scene can either kick ass or suck balls, it depends on how you want to look at it.
wow, Lynneaus' post was quite inspirational to me.
