Winter overture

this was going to be my last show of 2010. and yes, it was snowing. it wasn’t as cold though as I expected. the snow didn’t bother me as well. I arrived at the venue 30 minutes before Brutality will prevail was on. so I waited patiently. I was hoping to see some familiar faces but that was some disappointment. Brutality will prevail started of their set with a song from Forgotten soul. the rest of the set was basically a mixture of Root of all evil and Forgotten soul. I really enjoyed it. I missed half of their set at Ieperfest in august and before that it was nearly 3 years since the last time I was them. needless to say they really evolved. somehow disappointed though, that they didn’t play Secrets of the truth. but hey, they were excellent. when I went outside to cool off I finally saw some people I knew, cool! I went to check the merch and I bought myself a Brutality will prevail bobble hat. when I came downstairs again I saw Robin (marshalltown @ tumblr), cool that we finally had chat! in meanwhile While she sleeps started. I’m not going talk a lot about them. they were one of the two bands that didn’t had to play. wise move from the promoter though, they attracted a few couple more people. after While she sleeps I probably went outside again. it was getting really warm inside. Mother of mercy was up next. they were really cool as well. in my opinion they’re better live than on CD. I don’t know much of their songs, but they played a decent set. some old songs, a new one of their oncoming record. when they were done, I stayed on my spot. not really waiting for Shadows casting ghosts though. I’m going to refer to While she sleeps why. I took the time to go get a longsleeve from Mother of mercy instead. then it was finally time for Dead swans. they get better every time I see them. although they played a smaller set, or was that just me? anyhow, they were really awesome. played mostly tracks of Sleepwalkers. at the end of their set they played a No warning cover. when I thought it was over, there were some guys on stage. I don’t know who they were but it was kinda cool to see.
