Pretty decent turn out considering the lack of promo.

I wonder how much they paid to put up 50+ mattresses around the place...? - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 12:15am

Chaos Assassin(s): Was fukking brootul! I missed the first song due to ignorance but I caught the rest of the set and it slayed. Great vocals by everyone in the band, congrats. I wish the set was a bit longer but that's what you get with grind. Awesome job guys.

Acherontic: The lead guitarist was awesome, the arpeggios were intense. Vocals were brootal just like C.A. considering it was the same vox... shawn you're too hardcore. Solid rhythm section as well, the drummer and other (nick) guitarist did a great job.

Peruke: What a way to end the night with another great band. I laughed and then I laughed some more. The song that made the night for me was "that guy on the canadian tire commercials" fucking A. The drums were great, the guitar was great, and the vox was great.

Overall: Amazing gig, I feel sorry for the poor bastards who missed it. - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 3:48am

Chaos Goat vomitted out 1 minute gems.

Acherontic blastpeggio'd everyone.

Peruke triumphantly brought back stubbies and curmudgeon grind.

A night of no bass players and brutality. - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 11:47am

There was an address. Quadra street itself isn't too hard to find, and I'm pretty sure we're still on that Napolean-spearheaded intiative to keep house numbers going in ascending/descending order (depending on what way you're driving on the street.) - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 4:33pm

Jesus Christ XY calm down... It is the place right beside the Shell. No reason to get pissy...

I only caught Acherontic but I was fucking impressed! You guys are tighter than my mother's anus. Ladies loved the shirtless Spencer. Goodtimes seeing people I haven't seen in a while, sorry to miss Peruke again. Next time Doug, I fucking swear. - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 6:09pm

awww, you were so close! It is (was) literally adjacent to the Shell station! Don't be discouraged, we put these shows on for people like you (ie people who like the music enough to look for and cram into a basement with 10 other people and cheer loud enough to make the band think there's 100.) - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 6:51pm

I made that first post right after I woke up the next day; my friends (the few who are left, anyways) can attest to how much of a morning person I am. Anyways, I still stand by the obscure cleverness of my original post and its too bad you missed an awesome show. I'm definitely going to be calling Peruke in for backup for any future shows I may or may not be planning. Not that I planned this one .. you can tell be the glaring lack of postering. Trying to keep things kvlt, spenxor? - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 8:14pm

All's good ! Sorry if I was a little pissed there's been a few jerks on this board and I was kind of venting.

Ok enough of the EMO crap I really wished I could have found it though. - Sat, 30 Apr 2005 10:05pm

What a fucking great show! Thanks to all the bands that played the final massacre in the Alpha Quadrant dungeon and to everyone who came to the 3 small shows we were able to have in that house.

Chaos Hashassin- Now a 3-piece these nerds blasted out a fast set of noisy basement-grind. Sloppy midpaced blasts...maybe one discernable riff...and james did an excellent job of memorizing those complex lyrics in such a short time too!

Acherontic- Well they pretty much just totally shit all over every other death metal band in town(with the exception of the mito probably...with who they share 2 members.) The guitars were a little low but other than that this was a really fucking great first set.

Peruke- Fuck I wish they played more shows....every time I see them I am always so stoked. They have been kind enough to play a few of the shows we have put on bewteen the 2 houses and I am so grateful. Please some more recordings...it's been a long time since the Please... Mess With Texas came out and still nothing new with Tony on it(to my knowledge). - Sun, 1 May 2005 1:19am

this show i heard was great. i was too busy getting high on coke. oh wait i showed up

i missed chaos assasin. good.

Acherontic, a mess of chords tremblin against a steady yet, promiscuous drum frezy coupled with the trolls of Brazil chanting. I didn't not like it.

Peruke is always fucking killer. It's funny that their lead singer looks like a family friend, so I kept imagining him doing vocals. but the riffs were just sickening and dougs drumming is always top-notch crotchetty grind.

RIP basement shows with the Burnside Buddies. Hopefully one day we'll find a house with a large basement and put on rockin shows...or someone will...please....!!!!!! - Sun, 1 May 2005 1:47am

I'm still trying to figure out where the Shell station is, is it the one right across the street from Thrifty's?

That basement looks cool, I doubt I've been there tho'. - Sun, 1 May 2005 11:28am

all the bands ruled.. chaos assassin sounded about 10 times better than they have before.. acherontic were brutal.. love the arpegios blastbeats and windmailing.. peruke were alot of fun... i am so glad that they came out and played.. doug.. i love your d beat. thanks alot to peruke for lending their gear at the end of the night so ungoliant could play a quick set. that was by far the best show we had at the alpha quadrant.. thanks to all who came. and i'm pretty sure greythorpe is talking about me.. i suck dick for coke and i sure as hell look like a girl.. and i'm always hanging off that dirtbag canon. - Mon, 2 May 2005 8:42am
