There's been a lot of great talk about Immolation, but I've seen every post not even mention Unholy Cult, which I think is totally underrated. The first song along ("Of Martyrs, And Men") is worth the price of admission!

Rival the Eminent from that album is also insanely sick. As is the title track. It's a good album, yeah.

I like undergang but burpy vocals sound dumb on a bolt thrower cover. I wish there were more BT style shouty punk vocals in death metal but I’ll take what I can get.

I liked the interpretation, but it made me just want to play bolt thrower some more because the original is better.

Funny you should say that, Undergang was 100% Realm of Chaos by volume when they started, though they've diluted down to only 50% by now.

e: that video says "pre-Undergang" so you're probably well aware, whoops

No worries, I grew up in the Copenhagen crust scene and you couldn't necessarily know :)

E: I loved 40K crust and Realm of Chaos so much I made my own RoC-inspired band because I liked the idea of a band cribbing off a band cribbing off Bolt Thrower, Eye of Terror. We made two decent songs "Countless Worlds of Slaughter" and "Free Speech is Heresy Unto the God-Emperor of Mankind", but never recorded :/

E: Eye of Terror turned into our urine-themed digital grindcore band, Urinal Cake Grief which didn't record either, that whole time had a lot of wasted potential :haw:

I went to go watch a local band that was opening for Decrepit Birth. I've never listened to Decrepit Birth much so was looking forward to it. Turns out Decrepit Birth had to drop off the tour because the lead singer jumped off the stage and no one caught him, and he broke his leg. Internal Bleeding ended up headlining and put on a great show. Arsis was good too. The rest were meh.

Worst injury I've ever had was taking an elbow square to the eye in the pit at a local nu-metal show in high school. Didn't really care for anyone left that was playing, so I went home after the daze wore off.

Certain songs you just gotta be in the pit for, every band has 'em. Sculptor of Flesh, Skull hosed, Hammer Smashed Face, Conquer All, Not Suitable For Life...

gently caress, they're not gonna play Not Suitable For Life, are they? :(

I had broken my ankle a few days before Napalm Death came to town but there was no way I was missing that pit, so I just went in there for a few songs in the middle of the set. Thankfully I was drunk as hell otherwise I would have been in much more pain than I probably was.

I destroyed my ankle at..Opeth lol.

It was a real lovely show and they played only their lame prog rock poo poo until the last song when they did Demon of the Fall. I was super drunk and ran into the pit that popped up and somehow managed to turn my ankle pretty badly.

I was never enjoying it. I only eat it for the nutrients.
My only real injury at a show was loving up my ankle real bad in the first few seconds of a Dismember pit, after totally misjudging where in the floor of BB King's a pit was likely to break out

A weird thing happened at that show though. I stumbled back to the bar and grabbed a drink and chewed on some ice to dull the pain, and some guy was staring at me from across the venue—maybe he saw me hobble out of the pit. I had never seen a picture of Will Rahmer before or heard his appearance described, but something was like "oh, that's Will Rahmer" as though this is a completely natural sensation for a person to have (it was Will Rahmer)

At a Damage Plan show I thought I was safely away from the pit, but got suprise speared from behind as some gorilla charged from the back of the hall towards the front .

All I remember is feeling an instantaneous bolt of lightning-pain shooting from my feet, through my spine, up to my head.

I felt nauseous and could barely walk for a few days. :(

At my first Manowar show, they concludes with playing the Crown and the Ring over the PA as was custom, and suddenly I heard a booming voice behind me going "KØM HØR MY BROTHER UV METAL", and huge rear end Swedish or Norwegian dude wearing chainmail lifted me off the ground in a bear hug and squoze me!

I pressed two ribs and it hurt breathing for another day or so.

I don't think I've ever been injured at a concert. I tend to stay right on the edge of the pit, though.

The funny thing is when you're at a Slayer concert, the entire place is the pit. That was kind of scary. Dead Skin Mask comes on, there's nowhere safe. Pretty sure even the bathrooms were part of the pit.

Saw them at Wacken, never saw so many crowdsurfing going on ever. Also, thousands of people yelling ODIN at the same time commanded by Hegg was more fun then it should be.
