EXIST IMMORTAL, LEGENDS, EDINBURGH, OCTOBER 27 2023

 Red Crust brings some fancy technical metal to Legends. Fancy technical metal brings its own lights. 



When I get there, it turns out that the local wi-fi service is down and none of the card readers are working, so it's cash only. I'm old, and can remember when it was cash only ALL the time, but 'the Kids' don't understand.

Line-up:

SCRAMBLE: Local progressive metal instrumental duo. Come on not long after the doors opened, before the audience arrived. Hence the somewhat cavernous sound.

ARTIFICIAL PATHOGEN: Glasgow deathcore/slam veterans, back in action after some time away it seems. Sounding like a couple of bears fighting in a bin full of spoons, rolling down a hill, whilst somebody slaughters a herd of pigs. So, they're doing it right.

Actually, I thought their name might be a conspiracy theorist's reference to a certain virus, but they're older than Covid. So it isn't.

SONIC DISSONANCE, DAY 1, EDINBURGH, SEPTEMBER 15 2023

Bailey from Scapegoat Promotions and Ali Lauder from, amongst others, Of Spire and Throne put together an extreme metal feast for the lucky people in Edinburgh. Two days, three venues. Obviously, there was too much for one person to see, but here's a round-up of the stuff I managed to catch on Day 1.

Line-up:

UNHALLOWED VOID: Local deathcore lads, now a 4-piece, still no drummer.

SCORDATURA: Glasgow death metal veterans.

STAIRMASTER: Theatrical grindcore. Includes former members of Wheelchair x 4. I'm still not quite sure what it was that I watched here...

GENDO IKARI: Masters of grind, celebrating the release of their new album.

AGELESS SUMMONING: Ali's new death/doom project. They asked for orange lights, they got orange lights.

CREPITATION:  Brutal death/grind. Very silly song titles, bodily functions/fluids feature strongly

INIQUITOUS SAVAGERY: Death metal. Very turbulent crowd in the Banshee Labyrinth. Lots of hair action.
