Album Rating:
Soilent Green, Burnt By The Sun, Lick Goldensky, and the Acacia Strain
OK, first off
the Acacia Strain are the worse sounding band I've
ever seen live. I mean first off, they have 3 guitar
players and no bass, 2nd they're just 'chug chug
whaaa' metal. All their songs, ALL their songs sound
the same.
Second up came Lick Goldensky, and they wouldn't have
been that bad, but they were. The music was OK, but
yet another in the endless list of bands grabbing at
Converge-style hardcore and then throwing some spazz
up as a frontman. Thank God it was a short set.
And then came B.B.T.S, they just owned the night.
They got the pit moving, and I'd like to point out
they were the only band to do so. Their sound is just
such a perfect blend of everything that's heavy.
And they pulled it off without their other guitar
player whom they've decided not to replace. But just
as heavy as you could get, the new material sounds
evil.
Soilent Green, well, was Soilent Green. They tore
through their set and that's about it. They weren't
there to hang out or make friends. Ben and company
tore the upstairs room at the Palladium a new asshole.
