BEHEMOTH, ARCH ENEMY, CARCASS & UNTO OTHERS Dublin 2022

[boozegeune]

Not a particularly big fan of any of these bands but used to be a huge Behemoth fan. All the same, such a great lineup, four big hitters.

Looking forward to this, 4 great live bands in one day. Any idea of stage times yet?

17:30 Doors
18:10 Unto Others 30min
18:40 Break
18:55 Carcass 45min
19:40 Break
20:10 Arch Enemy 1hr 10min
21:20 Break
21:50 Behemoth 1hr 10min
23:00 Show Ends

👍 for that..

if you have a ticket for the upper circle..is there any chance you can get down to the standing area?

No chance was hoping for something like this for Meshuggah as you use to be able to easily do this in the O2 but in the Olympia they have a completely separate entrance to the venue for seating.

So, how'd this go then?

Overall it was great. Missed Unto Others cos I was stuck in work. I thought Carcass were fantastic, but a lot disagreed for some reason.
Arch Enemy were really good. Think they might have gone on longer then they were supposed to, but every song was a banger and the whole band really got the crowd into it.

Behemoth took a while to get set up (but a great stage when it was done). The set was fantastic. A few older tracks (but no real early stuff) from Demigod, Thelema and Satanica mixed with some newer stuff. All done while the band raged and prowled around under a brilliant light show.. Never seen a bad Behemoth gig. But this seemed to be cut short, possibly because of first night stuff they need to work on and Arch Enemy playing a bit long. They were practically kicked off at about 11:10, so just over an hour.
Great night overall..

Carcass were terrible. The sound for them was awful. Was considering maybe sticking around for a little bit of Behemoth haven't listened to them since the Whelans show in 05 thought maybe I would give them another chance but couldn't sit through Arch Enemy and we were told if you leave the venue you can't get back in so didn't bother sticking around.

Looks like we were at different gigs!!

If you are back in the Olympia again and want to leave, just out through the smoking area. They stamp your hand so you can go back in.

Asked the fella who was taking tickets just passed where they sell the merch and he said no ins and outs. Once you leave you can't get back in.
They also had a bouncer standing at that temporary boundary they had in the smoking area who was stopping people from going out. Tried to first go out that way and was told no you have to go back around to the front door.

Don't mind too much to be honest I did the same thing when I saw this tour in April fucked off after Napalm played. Behemoth were also headlining that night so wasn't worth sitting through Arch Enemy knowing I more than likely wouldn't enjoy Behemoth.

Enjoyed Unto Others and Carcass. Not into the others. Great to see a full venue for that sorta line up.

Missed Carcass as I was driving down from Belfast. Shame.

Amazing gig, although I hadn't listened much to the new Behemoth album, aside from a few of the singles. I would've preferred them leaving out a couple of the new songs in favour of Lucifer and Sculpting the Throne ov Seth.

Carcass were excellent, not sure many would disagree with that either.

They were flat to the mat, 9 songs in 45mins was good going.

Unto Others were brilliant too.

Hadn't listened to AE since Gossow left. Didn't realise how popular they were. Find your dolls vocals boring as fuck but music was tight albeit generic scandimetal.

Behemoth were grand, pure pantomime but entertaining. If it takes them to get a lineup like that over to Ireland and sell it out, fair fucks to them.

AE & Behemoth did exactly 70 each as scheduled. Behemoth went on 10 mins late due to a first day of tour changeover glitch but the venue let them go 10 mins beyond 11......so nobody played longer than they were supposed to and nobody cut any songs either.

Someone uploaded Arch Enemy's full set from the balcony:

Sounds a lot better and clearer than where I was - stuck near the aisle underneath the balcony.
