Corrupted
This was an awesome Halloween show. Three great bands, and they all delivered. Pretty much headbanged my way through all of Asunder and Ludicra's sets. I didn't recognize any of Asunder's songs, but they were heavy and crushing. Makes me wonder if they were playing new material? If it was it sounds fantastic.
Ludicra were in top form. They also came out in full costume (except for the drummer), which was super cool. John looked like a member of Sunn O))), Christy was some sort of heavy metal panda, Ross was zombie Cliff Burton, and Laurie Sue was hands down the best as Faye Dunaway playing Joan Crawford in 'Mommie Dearest!' Perfect! She even had some wire hangers in hand at the start of their set.
I had seen a Youtube clip of Corrupted from at least 5 years ago, and they looked like typical metal dudes. So it sort of threw me for a loop when they came out onstage and the singer has his hair cut short and he's wearing a suit and hat. But whatever, they were bad ass. They started their West Coast tour with this Halloween show, and they will end it on the 8th at Gilman in Berkeley, so I'll get to see them one more time. Hopefully, they won't wait another 11 years before coming back.
