^ I saw one bloke in a Portal shirt. May have been you. You probably saw me, I was the guy wearing a black shirt.
How's 'The Sweyy' like? I have had Seepia for a long time and love it. Live, well my jaw was on the ground most of the time. Funny moment for me was one of the Darklord lads coming into the toilets and standing near me, in corpse paint and all. i thought the image was hilarious.
IHR drummer is amazing! And he was singing at the same time!! :shock:
Well if you were wearing a black shirt I definitely saw you then. Along with 500-odd of your twin brohers. I don't think I saw anyone else in a Portal shirt, so the buffoon you saw might well have been me. I was with my girlfriend, her brother, and a couple of mates. We were at the tables at the far end of the room most of the time.
I've only heard "The Sweyy" twice so I can't comment too much, but on first impressions, the production is meatier and the songs are a bit more varied. There's your standard fast, technical Portal song, a slower number ("Werships", which they played at BL), and an atmospheric time waster. There are also live versions of "Atmosblisters" and "Transcending A Mere Multiverse" recorded at last year's Bloodlust.
The vinyl version of "Seepia" is a lovely shade of brown. It's one of the most disgusting shades of brown I've ever seen, I'm afraid to put it on my turntable, lest it leave filth all over my stylus.
Darklord were quite interesting. Nice to see them introducing the double-necked guitar to black metal :lol: I had a corpsepaint toilet experience with Arkheth at the Vic a couple of months ago. The men's room was empty when I went into the cubicle to do my thang, and what do I see when I get out but 3 guys jockeying for space in front of the mirror, trying to put their corpsepaint on without spilling their beers. Now that's metal :lol:
