| Above the knee User Info... | I believe the music starts at 9:30 instead of 10. Reaver will be unveiling a new song "Corvus" which we are really excited to play. Yeah I know its a Tuesday but this show is going to crush so hard. It would be foolish to miss it! - Wed, 13 May 2009 11:04am | ||

| Above the knee User Info... | Dude I wish the V-lounge would have more metal shows. It was a great venue to play. The stage was HUGE! Giant screens in the backround! Smoke! Also was impressed as fuck for the turnout for the entire night. Thanks so much to everyone who came out early to catch us, it made our night. I only caught 2 Unleash the Archers songs since I had to load gear and bring it back to the jam spot but it sounded like they were on their game despite having Scott (drummer) pushed way up in front with them lol. I forget the name of the opener song but it is tight and has a really sweet mid section breakdown type deal. Good sound all around for all of the bands. Archon Legion was next and I finally got to hear some new stuff from them. The opener, once again, was fantastic! I had to get in there and cause a bit of havok during Battle Ride too... that song just has the muthafuckin groove! All bands seemed to be firing on all cylinders (and if they weren't I may have been too drunk to notice). Sky is a madman drummer. I've never seen the drummer headbang like that. Hibria had their shit together. True professionals. They had their whole act DOWN, from the virtuoso playing (and singing), to crowd interaction sing alongs, to choreographed headbanging and movement. I admit I had never heard much of them before since I've never been huge on the power metal but these guys made it look effortless. Obviously a lot of time and dedication was put into their art. They reminded me why I bought a wireless for my guitar.. too bad I didnt use mine! Anyways, I had a fucking blast and I really hope that a show that can match this one comes up sometime soon cuz I want seconds - Wed, 27 May 2009 12:26pm | ||
