Title: UNTO OTHERS - Belfast/Dublin/Cork - March 2022
Post by: G-Force on February 02, 2022, 03:32:43 PM
The tour poster within the link below also mentions Cork but I can't find any ticketing information on that.

Anyway, Belfast is 15 quid and Dublin 18 (plus the usual fees), seems like a bargain for those so inclined.

Haven't heard anything yet.

Really looking forward to this. Had Strength and Mana on heavy rotation for the last couple of weeks.

Friend of mine rang me last Friday night and said "I've bought a few tickets for Unto Others in Cyprus Ave next Tuesday - one of them has your name on it"

I quickly had to make up an excuse... "Eh, I'm, eh... work... eh... doing an online night course"

I haven't been to a gig since Feb 2020. My first one back into the pit won't be this shite.  :laugh:

There's no accounting for taste, eh?  :abbath:

Thought the gig was fantastic, happy for it to pop my 2.5 year gig drought cherry.  Decent turnout for a cold Sunday night in Belfast, 125 heads maybe? Would love to see them again.

Was shocked to get a flyer for a heavy metal festival in Derry from the guitar player from Cirith Ungol outside the Slimer. Kinda surreal.

Agreed mate. Had a great time at this.

I only starting getting into them last night after two previous mixed listenings. It seems to depend on the mood. I'm heading tomorrow night anyway and will take it for what it is - an opportunity to enjoy some riffs amd some live drumming at long last 😀

How long was their set in Belfast or Dublin? Anyone any idea of stage times for Cork? I definitely want to avoid the support band, christ... I presume everyone has to be cleared by 10.30 at the latest to facilitate the club doors opening at 11pm anyway.

I'm looking forward to this.
Play the stuff from the eps and I'll be happy.
They also do a cover of Cold Sweat which could be glorious or a car crash.
Anyway. As long as it's not the band and about 20 people it should be ok.
Cork on a Tuesday evening...

...and in advance of a long weekend 😬 Reminds me it's 20 years since Vader played here and we got just over 100 punters as people have other drinking plans that take precedence at this time of year. God forbid people might spend the equivalent of 3 pints for entertainment!

Well worth the money tonight. Played really well and they came across like a good bunch.
They support wasn't really my thing.
I have to say it was one of the loudest gigs I've ever been at.
My ears are ringing solid.
Louder than Ben Frost and that fucker came with a warning.

Unbelievable show in Cork tonight. First gig for me since Testament in March '20. Delighted to say it was brilliant. Good turnout given a Tuesday and the bank holiday coming up too.

Ha, arrived just as the support were ending and I was sorting my earplugs in the stairwell, phew! I got my Flare earplugs just over 2 years ago so it was a long time coming to check them out and it seems they were well needed then! 😀

It was great to catch a gig again, I really enjoyed the performance of Unto Others,. First thought was that i forgot how seizure-inducing light shows could be and that warnings should be issued for those returning to gigs again after so long away!! 😅

Maybe it's just me, but I get a good bang off Paradise Lost, The Cure, slower Pantera stuff, and Chorus of Ruin mixed in - fairly varied to say the least!

Good interaction from the band as well, I missed that. There was one joke I missed due to the earplugs, seemed to be the best one? Can't remember the gist at this stage... Ah well, great to see folks giving it socks up the front on a Tuesday night - but I didn't miss lads taking their tops off and throwing sweating shapes around the place 😄 Maybe 40-50 there at most I guess. Roll on July for the fest and October for Therapy?  :abbath:

I picked up Strength - probably the first Roadrunner Records buy since 2008 with Slipknot's All Hope is Lost. Long gone are the days of it being a label of serious interest and anticipation in the early 90's... Hopefully it means the same for others with different tastes these days for those not stuck in a time warp 😊

Good description of the mix of influences there.
It really was a great gig and had whetted the appetite for more.
As juvenile as it sounds hearing double kick drums and the “uurgh” shouts gave me goosebumps after the long break from gigs.

Yah it was a great gig, really fun live band and the sound was great. Cyprus avenue is a great venue to have in the city.

I see Strength II is coming out on Friday in the US for record store day. They're 6 tracks (22 minutes) they had planned on including previously but the label made them trim it as they wanted to fit things on to one vinyl. Looking forward to hearing this  :abbath:
