earth crisis comes to europe

Earth Crisis is back! Seems like last year was a good year with the return of 108 and Path Of Resistance. I'm extremely psyched about the fact that Earth Crisis will be hitting European grounds this summer. I'll try to go see them as much as possible and it's great to have them back. As far as known these are the confirmed dates , but I guess there's more coming up such as Fluff Fest.

22.06. Clisson – Hellfest (France)
23.06. London – Islington Carling Academy (Great Britain)
24.06. Herne – Pressure Fest (Germany)
26.06. München – Backstage (Germany)
28.06. Antwerpen – Hof Ter Loo ( Belgium) + SWORN ENEMY + WALLS OF JERICHO
29.06. Roitzschjora – With Full Force (Germany)

While listening to the latest Freya record, I digged up up some unpublished Path Of resistance tour pics from their 2006 European tour. The whole thing was awesome, but I'm a laizy fuck when it comes down to taking pics. Just ended up with a handful of pics including some German bathrooms.

fire in the head playing ghent

Last weekend, Ghent got temporary covered into blackness when Fire In The Head came down to play our beloved city. Fire In The Head is Michael Page doing some fierce hardcore powerelectronics with harsh layers and elements of industrial and ambient covering the Cro Mags on one of his records. Harsh brutality. Hardcore. Spending most of the night on lemon juice lemonade , it was a great surprise to hear that Shift would be playing here as well. Bringing a huge wall of layered blackened noise, backed up by harsh screaming. Shift delivered and conquered with a heavy dark brooming trip. I feel sorry for not getting some more of his tapes.

Fire In The Head brought in the aural violence assisted by Burn Ward, taking things harsh and loud. Equipment falling off stage, ritually dragging himself into the audience. Ending the set on the ground. Loved it. Some pics of the show, although I hate to take pics on a show, I thought this one was worth the effort. This show was organized by Silken Tofu.
