medichi Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 So the latest installment of the metal/hardcore fest DVD series is out - quick review:Ace bands I knew already: Norma Jean, The Bled, OneLineDrawingAce bands I didn't Know: The AKAs, No WarningBands I don't like, but are AWESOME on this DVD: D.E.P (Dear god, the live stuff is BRUTAL!)Rubbish bands: From Autumn To Ashes, My Chemical RomanceFrikkin' LOADS of pop punk on this tho', and what the FUCK are CKY doing there?Seems the festival is branching out a fair bit, which seems a shame as the previous DVD was a cool snapshot of a scene. This one seems a bit more like a regular "festival"..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 I think it's healthy that they're branching out. As long as they keep booking brutal bands, I reckon it'll help keep the scene from becoming too insular and stale.NB Most of the bands that weren't included on the DVD were really heavy hardcore bands...

medichi Posted August 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Yeah, in the extras you hear someone say how ace ETID and Hope Con were, but no footage - guess its cos they were on the last one.This year Fear Factory played too methinks. And there was some controversy about a band who caused a riot? Probably all bullshit..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
