Original line up playing Scandinavian Death fest in Stockholm,hopefull it leads to a tour!
Poorly kept secret, surprised it's taken this long for them to properly confirm it.
Curious to see the rest of the lineup for that fest though. Never saw Dismember and I have always wanted to go to Sweden sooo.....
Id imagine they'll do Killtown and another few fests,absolutely killer live band.That gig in the place on O'Connell street was mad!,a couple of gigs in The Cruiscin were off the wall too.
Oop, Update: not amazing lineup wise. Interment, Toxaemia (!?!), Sorcery and Unanimated on home soil aside, there's little else grabbing me besides the chance of seeing Demilich again as they were killer in London last year. How do people still like Benediction in 2019??
I dunno about Killtown - I'd say if they were doing that they'd have been announced earlier to stop people flocking to this.
It's listed on the the death fest poster as being a European exclusive,, hopefully they will do a full tour next year.
An old school set in the Voodoo would be great!
grand, can't wait. have already ticket & accomodation
Jesus would love to see this never taught id see the day they would come back , sold out fast but my god that's an expensive ticket 120 euro for that line-up hardly 5 bands on it id go out of my way to see
Yeah it's a piss poor line up really bar Dismember. Who as pointed out will, I'm sure, do some kind of tour or at least loads of bigger festivals next year if not before. I'd guarantee you Maryland Death Fest and maybe even something like Bloodstock or Hellfest next year.
It's funny how time away can change people's perspective. Dismember's stock and quality of release really took a nosedive after the fourth record or so. I'd still like to see them again myself, but Dismember were here a few times back in the day and the turnouts were fairly poor. Remember the show at the Gasworks being dire enough and caught them at the "Day Of Darkness" yolk in abbeleix in 2004 where the underwhelming turnout were more interested in skulling cans and taking their knobs out in the car park.

I'd agree with that. I enjoyed both times i saw them. Once in Murrays on O'Connell St and an afternoon gig in the Cruiscin Lan in Cork. Hate Campaign was the last album I listened to loads, really enjoyed what they had going on in that one. I was glad I got to see all of Entombed, Dismember, Grave and Unleashed at various stages of their careers somewhere in Ireland, kinda closed a circle of Swedish death metal for me that I was mad into during the early 90's
I don't think I've even bothered with anything after the second album really. And even at that "Stream" is the one I always go back to, that and "Dark Recollections" are the absolute high points for me of the Swedish stuff. Though given how many bands now are knock offs of these and Carnage/Nihilist/Entombed more power to them in capitalising on the interest.
Where Iron Crosses Grow,and The God That Never was are fine releases imo,granted LAEFS is a dm classic theyve been pretty solid throught their career album wise.

was the gig in the Gasworks that poorly attended?,i cant remember much now but it never jumped out at me that it was.
Seen them nearly every time they played in Ireland class live , for me a band who never got the credit they deserved first few albums unreal classics for sure and the rest of the albums are rock solid , hopefully they come back and get the credit they deserve , estby and blomquist are some musicians
Yeah, gasworks was poor enough I recall 80 payers or so at the time though maybe someone involved can clarify. There was a few bands supporting too so that may have artificially bumped it up.
For the record totally agree, dismember totally got left behind all I'm saying is the excitement now is baffling when nobody gave a fuck back then. Once they've done the festival run the interest will nosedive again, can't imagine them doing much better numbers for a headline show here.
Of course, now people all over the world are hoping for Dismember to play near their town. Are you planning to go on tour anytime soon?
No.
We haven't said anything about the future except this show, and that is mainly because you don't know how everyone feels.
I mean, now we are doing this because it's fun because we like to do it, we have this spark like in the beginning and that's kind of cool, and we want to keep it that way.
We said, "we do one step at a time", we concentrate on this show...the only reason we do two shows is because it's sold out, otherwise, it would be only one, it's like the 20th anniversary gig we did here in Medborgarplatsen [a square in Stockholm], that was a one-time only thing and that was the cool thing about it.
So, maybe there will be more in the future but at the moment nothing is certain.

Sunday looks tempting but looks awkward enough to get there from Ireland

Sunday looks tempting but looks awkward enough to get there from Ireland
yes a bit difficult. I have a weekend pass, will go there probably on Thursday (Dublin - Edinburgh - Stockholm Skavsta).
For the line-up that's there though weekend ticket was very expensive , how much did you get both flights for , going by the price of the fest tickets I suppose accommodation was expensive too
Yeah, the ticket wasn't cheap, but I do like most of the line-up, so I didn't think twice about it. I was at a one-time gig of Eucharist (in their hometown Varberg) in April 2016 and it wasn't cheap either. Haven't bought flight tickets yet (just Stockholm - Gdansk (Sunday 13/10/19) for 20 euro). Currently, Dublin - Edinburgh - Stockholm flights (Thursday 10/10/19) cost about 60 euro. Will buy them later, anything can happen until October. We booked accommodation for three nights for 79 euro/person (Booking.com). A pint/bottle of beer at the venue won't be less than 7-8 euro, I guess.

What was that like? I haven't heard gig feedback in far too long! I was surprised today to discover that Eucharist have a new album coming out on Regain Records. It has beem a fair oul gap! Talking about a darker sound and carrying on with one oroginal member now. Will have to hear more before committing. 77 minutes seems overkill though!
It was a great night. Three original members, incl. Daniel Erlandsson. They played 12 songs from both albums.

Reactions were very positive and because of that they decided to make a new album. As you mentioned, it will be released in 2022, so far it looks like it will be black metal stuff. (with Marduk drummer) .
Nice one Madonna! Thanks a million for the link, will have to check it out properly during the week :abbath:
On the fence about going to see them at the Swedish Invasion thing. Kinda want to. But at the same time I feel like what I'd want them to play vs what they'd actually play are very different set lists..
In other news that new Eucharist album can absolutely eat shit.
I'm sure I heard that they're playing a 'first two albums set', nothing wrong with that.
If that's the case I may venture over
first 4 albums set was played in Stockholm two years ago

Nukie Blast reissues on the way
"Like An Everflowing Stream - hailed by many as one of the best death metal albums of all time - is the first entry in a re-issue campaign of the entire DISMEMBER back catalog, which is currently being remastered from the original albums. Stay tuned for more info on proper LP & CD re-issues that are in the works for late 2022!"
I'll quite happily pick up a copy of the LP anyway.
I've got it on CD but it's a dodgy Karmageddon reissue from a few years back, doesn't sound great. I picked up a digpak version of Indecent And Obscene with the Pieces EP tacked on the end and again, not the best sounding. I'm looking forward to these as a result.
You'd want to be with that username ;)
Indeed, forgot about that. I was listening to Dark Recollections when I signed up here, hence the name.
Nuclear Blast are rolling out their back catalogue reissues on CD and vinyl. Like An Everflowing Stream*, Pieces and Indecent And Obscene to start:

*Using a 1991 master for this, interestingly. First time (for that master) on vinyl, apparently. I suppose vinyl was (rightly) an afterthought then.
Ver nice. They have some cool albums
