Nice announcement and a very affordable €30
This tour is currently going on in the US. I won't spoil it for people by saying which songs but they are playing 6 of the 8 tracks from None So Vile. It's the 6 best tracks. Matt is no Lord Worm but he's a great vocalist in his own right and he has always been great live anytime I have seen him with them.
The bingy-boingy bass rendered them unlistenable for me, is that still in the mix?
I'll see them at Stonehenge fest in July, been 20 years since I last saw them live.A band ive always liked without being a total fanatic, you need to be in a certain mood to enjoy them!
It will be 20 years ago this August since the last time Lord Word was here with them.

What do you mean like the bits in Abigor, Carrionshine etc.?
Just the almost funky sounding plucked bass on NSV, really irritating. That's the only album I've heard and I couldn't get past it.

Celestial Sanctuary are playing Belfast without Cryptopsy after the other dates.
tomorrow night, still some tickets available.
What does it mean by "Whelans Main Venue"?
Is that the space with the weird layout and balcony?
I thought they did most metal gigs in Opium in the back
I believe the main venue is the one downstairs entered from the side lane.

Ah I suppose so, thanks
Any stage times going?
Just went up
Doors 7
Celestial 8
Cryptopsys 9
thanks man
Didn't care for Celestial, kinda remind me of Trigger The Bloodshed in the sense they're not very good but we'll see them on multiple bills.
Really enjoyed Cryptopsy. Very efficient. Set was less than an hour.
Good mix of young and old at this which was heartening. Plenty of youngsters giving it socks. Though I did see two attempt some kung fu shit during the support but it was quickly stopped.
Fine selection of merch but it was extortionate €40 for a tee???? 3arena prices

:laugh: some of the young lads were a bit energetic at the start alright, but it was good to see them enjoy themselves after the messing stopped. Cryptopsy were good, I think the set was probably around the right length, it started to get a bit samey towards the end and I wasn't sure which song was been played.
40 was a bit steep for tshirts but I suppose they have come from US/Canada so they need to make a few bob on this.
Thanks Micko for mentioning they were going playing more material from None so Vile, I decided to go fairly late on after reading that. Glad I did, they were excellent. The 3 lads are savage musicians and Matt is a very good frontman.
Agree on the t shirt prices 40 was pretty shocking, I still bought one though as I was on a high from hearing so much of NSV played, figured they'd well earned it.
Cryptopsy were a lot better last week then the previous time they had been here. My only complaint would be the short set they could have easily added in back to the worms and cold hate warm blood or a few from the first album. Matt is an incredible vocalist with a great range.
They had a sleeveless None so vile shirt that was €30 those are usually more expensive than short sleeve shirts. Merch designs were shite anyway. A packed Whelans is always horrible the heat inside on the main floor was almost unbearable.
Class gig, vocals on the lead were amazing live. I'd deffo go see them again. Place was fucking sweltering though.
