Achilla, Feral, Juggern0rt, N.A.M.B Live @ Hollywood + Vine 15.10.10 (Gig Review)

N.A.M.B
Local boys from Hull, 'Not Another Metal Band' open tonights gig with a short but furious set of catchy post hardcore/screamo, nothing to fault musically (if thats your favoured style of music of course).
The band need to tighten up with their stage presence and the backing vocals need to be delivered with a bit more confidence.

JUGGERN0RT
The first of tonights London based bands, the mighty Juggern0rt bring their devistatingly heavy music with not so much a sledgehammer effect, more of being hit by a solid steel wall at mach 10!
Unlike most bands who play this style of music, the technical ability of the musicians is second to none and vocalist James can hold his growls longer than anyone!
A very professional set, delivered with style and humor, highly entertaining and such was the response to them that they had to perform an encore.
If you are in london next month you can catch them along with Feral at the Arch Enemy after party.

FERAL
Performing tonight as a three piece with guitarist Laurence playing bass after just one rehersal, you would think they had been gigging like this for years.
An absolute blinder of a set, the melody and progression on their take of melodic thrash metal sets them almost in a class of their own.
All three of them clearly put their heart and soul into the music which has been wowing audiences in london for 2 years and now has won them fans in the north.

ACHILLA
The final night of their mini tour to promote their debut single 'Arashi'.
With their usual drummer away his place was taken by Neon Fly's Boris Le Gal and his performance alone was astounding and helped give the band a very heavy edge which allowed guitarist Dan to crank it up to 11 (no he really did the amp actually had 12 on it!) and bassist Costas to pound out the bottom heavy chords.
Vocalist Martamaria stalked the stage with her unique vocals and peformance.
Clearly moving away from the early symphonic/prog influence and maturing into a full on hard rock outfit, songs such as 'Arashi' , 'Devils Eyes' and 'Wild Flower' coming across like never before and getting a very positive reaction from the crowd.

JUGGERNORT - FULL METAL ASSAULT EP (CD REVIEW)

01.D.O.A
02.Order Of Chaos
03.Humanity Lost...Not Found
04.The Demon Who Makes Trophies Of Man
05.Origins Of Evil


James Taw (Vocals)
Joel Hogan (Guitar)
Joe Heraghty (Drums)
Andy Hunter (Bass)


London based band who formed in 2008 with a single purpose of bring skull crunching metal to the hoardes.

'D.O.A' explodes into life with a bomb sample then full on brutality.Its shouty, in your face vocals just blast through the speakers, backed by hyper drum work, crunching riffs and basswork.

Up next is 'Order Of Chaos' drawing on black and death metal influences to create a six minute epic.

"we are just the blood on the face of destiny" is a great line taken from 'Humanity Lost'.Without a doubt my favourite track here, this one has it all in terms of great lyrics, great playing and a bass solo!!

Kicking off like "Blind" by Korn, 'The Demon Who Makes Trophies' soon evolves to a Slayeresque metal onslaught complete with a "You're all gonna die" scream of epic proportions.Coming in at over 7 minutes its yet another stand out track.

Finally 'Origins Of Evil' continues the pace, but with a cheeky melodic ending that calms you down quite nicley.

All in all a very well produced EP of stunning thrash/death influenced metal full of originality and clearley performed with style and understanding.

Rating 9/10

For Fans Of : Slayer, DevilDriver, Hatebreed, Morbid Angel

VIRUS, METAL MESSIAH, JUGGERNORT, FERAL Live at the Unicorn 28.11.09 (Gig Review)

VIRUS
METAL MESSIAH
JUGGERNORT
FERAL

The Unicorn, Holloway 28.11.09

FERAL
Melodic and polished thrash that has now levelled out so that each performance remains at the same high standard.As ever it is the song 'Twisted Sinister Smile' that emerges as outstanding, the swearing during 'weapon X' still raises a (twisted) smile and the inclusion of lady gaga lyrics in 'Truth Is Lies' still gets confused looks from the audience.

JUGGERNORT
By definition a juggernort in english terms refers to examples of unstoppable, crushing forces, that definition also sums the band up perfectly.The wall of sound they create is breathtaking, just take the heaviest moments of Devildriver and Hatebreed and stand the fuck back!
Superb drumming backs the dual guitar attack and bass riffage with screaming/shouty vocals equalled out with some nice melodic backing from one of the guitarists.

METAL MESSIAH
One time heroes of the second uk thrash wave from years gone by, tonight making their London return after some 19 years.
They are good, in fact i would say they are better now, the fire and energy is still there but with added maturity that somehow gives it all a new lease of life.

VIRUS
Tonight i have to say was not the best i have seen from Virus, first of all the sound problems thanks to a pretty useless soundman, but mainly due to the audience themselves.For the first few songs the floor was packed, but as the moshpits broke out and started to get out of hand, one girl sent flying and just left on the floor, peoples drinks sent flying without so much as a "sorry", the audience started to leave, by the end of their set you could count maybe 9 people left!
Now that must have been demoralising for the band and it started to effect their performance as im sure they must have been wondering what the hell was going on.

It was a good set, personal highlight was the slightly chaotic, almost Motorhead like, rendition of an old song 'No Return', i think the low point of the set was 'Raped By Mutants', now i know what the song is about but the word rape is offensive, but within context its acceptable, however when a friend of the band came onstage in a mask and hoodie i think it sent out the wrong message.
