Young fire
last night I went to Antwerp again. the same guys who did Jeniferever almost 2 weeks ago, set up another show. first band was The black heart rebellion. they're a Belgian band, greatly influenced by instrumental bands like Red Sparowes and Mogwai, combined with the dark atmosphere of bands like Cult Of Luna and Isis and the screaming intensity of bands like Amanda Woodward. I never saw them before, I even never heard something from them. I was looking forward to see them, to say the least! they surprised me, in a good way. they managed to build there songs up very well. they played only 4 songs; 1 brand new, 1 from the split with Amen ra, 1 from the split with Adorno and 1 I don't know. I guess their own album. while I was waiting for Suis la lune to go on, I picked up Pianos become the teeth - Old pride on 12". eventually it was time for Suis la lune. I've known them for quite a while now. I don't listen to them very often but it sure was nice to them. they played a good set. headliner for the evening was Pianos become the teeth. I've only known them for a few months now, but I was really looking forward to seeing them. say what you will, I think they have very unique sound, or I missed a whole lot of bands that sound like them. anyhow, they were awesome. they played a lot of songs of Old pride, and even a brand new one, that will appear on the new record, which comes out somewhere at the end of the year.
