In particular, I think the drum production is particularly well executed.

The copy I used primarily for my review is the vinyl version which is 45 RPM and it sounds great. Starting as a grind band in the late 90s and with relentless touring and continual releases this album shows them further building upon elements of their previous albums. The follow up to 2019s Death Atlas, Terrasite shows how a band can grow and evolve while staying true to their roots. Today,, saw the release of the 8th studio album from San Diego’s own Cattle Decapitation. More Eleine at: Terrasite by Cattle Decapitation “Full Moon Madness” is a little slower than the other songs they played, but we all left satisfied. I may have been taken away on their musical wave because all too soon the last song was announced. Their musical and vocal counterpoints had the crowd sometimes swaying, sometimes slamming, and back and forth. Fernando was still in good form, considering they’ve been at it for 31 years. Live music is always great, but whatever Moonspell did when they took the stage was beyond that. Some of the crowd left at this point, too bad. “Death Incarnate”, from their 2015 self titled debut album, was an excellent closer as audience participation was expected and wholeheartedly embraced. The band followed with a trio of tracks from the Dancing In Hell album “ All Shall Burn”, “ Ava of Death”, and “ Where your Rotting Corpse Lie”. The crowd seemed to enjoy everything that was onstage this evening and the members of Eleine seemed to truly enjoy communing with us. Eleine plowed through the songs “As I Breath”, “We Are Legion”, and “Never Forget”. Madeleine Liljestam, the frontwoman, provided soaring vocals and the boys provided the instrumental abuse.

The camera’s viewfinder seems to block the other senses, except the bass, of course. Horns were being thrown and heads were banging- good enough for me.Įleine opened their show with, umm, I don’t know. Metalcore? Grindcore? How would I know, I’m a lithographer.

And we thought Tom Scholz of Boston was a perfectionist. Tiwanaku played from Earth Base One, an album 20 years in the making. Moonspell, Eleine and Tiwanaku played Preserving Underground last Saturday and I was smart enough to attend. “They” were great, go see them or “they” weren’t, don’t.
