         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode">Although I definitely won't leak the new album, I'll at least give you the lyrics to the new album. Enjoy the story! (The part in italics are explanations concerning the story, after that it's the actual text.)<br /><br /><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2kdKHT_HqJc/TUDG3UpWkII/AAAAAAAAEEc/MBoWqjXHaEw/s1600/B9R144_750x750_coverHeader.jpg" /><br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater" class="bbcode_artist">Defeater</a> - <a title="Defeater - Empty Days &amp; Sleepness Nights" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/Empty%2BDays%2B%2526%2BSleepness%2BNights" class="bbcode_album">Empty Days &amp; Sleepness Nights</a><br /><span style="font-size:16pt"><strong>Empty Days</strong></span><br /><strong>1. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Warm Blood Rush" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Warm+Blood+Rush" class="bbcode_track">Warm Blood Rush</a></strong><br /><em>That little kid wronged him for the last time. Took away his Father and ran away like a coward. “Why don’t you just own up to what you did? Instead of running away like a little yellow-belly? Just afraid of being hit, god damn him...” A little blood on someone’s hands never hurt no one.</em><br /><br />“Dear God, what have you done?” Those words ring loud in the back of your head. That bottle lies in a thick, blood red. “I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter.” Our mother waits in vain for a God that never loved us. As much as she prayed, he never showed up. “Dear God, where have you gone?” Your brother is gone in the blink of an eye. That January night, our father lays cold. “Where are you going to go? You’re only seventeen years old. I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter.” Those cold steel tracks beneath your feet, those same rail ties where you dodged those trains. When we were just two kids, it still feels the same; that warm blood rush when the train comes. “I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter. I will find you, and put that vice to your head. Again, and again, and again.”<br /><br /><strong><br />2. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Dear Father" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Dear+Father" class="bbcode_track">Dear Father</a></strong><br /><em>He put their father into the ground. Watching his mother cry over the man that provided for the three of them cut into him. Made him into the working man he was.</em><br /><br />Bury him in the cold wet ground. Familiar faces would have made him proud. The military and the working man, the history of the life he lived. “Can you feel that soil covering your coffin?” So what are you going to do? Be the hero that your father was, be the man he made you to be? The war-torn stories that he told you, you’ve got a hell of a lot to live up to. An airborne man with a scar and wound, “Never make a promise that you can’t prove.” You are your father’s son, dear father. “Where are you?<br />You coward.”<br /><br /><br /><strong>3. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Waves Crash, Clouds Roll" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Waves+Crash%2C+Clouds+Roll" class="bbcode_track">Waves Crash, Clouds Roll</a></strong><br /><em>Before work he would just sit on that dock and watch the ocean. Waiting for his little brother to come home so he could put a couple bullets in him, put him in the ground with the father he’d wronged. His hands hurt every day after towing those lines in- they cracked when the winters came. Every night he’d come home to his mother passed out because of the junk she put in her arm. He’d pick her up and lay her in bed, kiss her forehead and close the door. He hated seeing her like that. He knew the only reason she started on that stuff in the first place is because she couldn’t deal with how his father drank. But that ain’t no reason to hurt yourself.</em><br /><br />As the waves crash, the clouds roll. Sit on the dock waiting for the sun. Wait for the coward but he never comes. Pray for revenge on him. Steam rises as the boats come in, one by one. You know she is gone and there’s no saving her. Her cheating, her weak will, the addiction, that needle. When you come home to find her on the floor, you’re reminded of those sleepless nights that will haunt you for the rest of your life. Blue collar shipyard, any way to keep her alive. Sun up to sun down, blistered hands and a parched mouth.<br /><br /><strong><br />4. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Empty Glass" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Empty+Glass" class="bbcode_track">Empty Glass</a></strong><br /><em>Him and the boys at work went out afterwards to this place called the Copper Coin. The old wood and brick walls made it feel like home. He found himself down at the Coin more that he would have liked. Staying later and later with each visit, even after the boys would go home to their girls. That’s all he wanted, a pretty girl to come home to. A familiar face that wouldn’t leave. And one night she was just sitting there, alone and unaware. He had never seen a prettier thing in his life. That was that, he had made up his mind. After a few drinks they walked home, and that’s the way it was for years.<br /></em><br />The way she looked at you, tears streaming down her face. You felt the brush of her dress as she walked away. And that’s all it took, sat down to buy her a drink. An empty or a half full glass, it all goes down the same. And that’s the way that it’s been, years later she took your name. Hopeful and now unafraid. Your gut sinks each time you see her. Another night at the Copper Coin. Tell me about the old days. Another night at the Copper Coin. Put the sun into the sea. Because there ain’t nothing like your smile, your legs and those eyes. And I will beg and steal and borrow to keep you safe for your whole life.<br /><br /><br /><strong>5. <a title="Defeater &ndash; No Kind of Home" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/No+Kind+of+Home" class="bbcode_track">No Kind of Home</a></strong><br /><em>One night, they fought harder than they ever had. They had always settled things with a ‘sorry’ and a kiss. But not that night. He had started going at the bottle much more than he used to. He’d go out to the Copper Coin after taking care of his mother and her addiction. He hated her for never backing him up when that bookie would talk to her. He thought she humored him. And after that fight, he did the same thing. Went out to the bar and drank himself into a stupor.</em><br /><br />“Where were you every night that I woke up alone?” Cold sweat keeps you up. “This ain’t no kind of home.” “Come pick me up.” “Damn those boys at the bar, damn the way that you drink.” Cold sweat, sleepless nights, when your hands start to shake. “Damn that pier where you sit, damn your vengeance for him. There’s no bringing him back, your father is buried and dead. But you can’t let go of that hero’s death. And you’ve been left with debt. You couldn’t fight for your country and your mother is an addict. “How dare you?” “This ain’t no kind of home.” “Damn that man that you humour, he only wants one thing from you. Damn those looks that you give him. Parlour tricks and I’m played for a fool.”<br /><br /><strong><br />6. <a title="Defeater &ndash; White Knuckles" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/White+Knuckles" class="bbcode_track">White Knuckles</a></strong><br /><em>The bookie his dad dealt with when he’d go to the tracks always gave him the eye when they would see each other there. He wanted to knock his jaw right off his face, tell him his father’s debt ain’t got nothing to do with him, and “if you’d like we could settle it with our fists.” That bookie never did a damned thing about it. But that night was different, that bookie was there and he gave him what for. Told him, “You ain’t never to look at my wife like that again.” He landed one good punch, but that man’s lackeys took him to the ground faster than he could hit, and he was out.<br /><br />He woke up in the street and walked home, trying to put together the pieces of the night before. The shame he felt for all the drinking he had been doing and the way he walked out ran so deep. He knew no husband should act the way he did. He made it to the doorstep much quicker than he thought he would, the door was already open and that’s when he saw her. The love of his life, passed in his own home because he wasn’t there to protect her. Because he was out drinking all night. Because that goddamned bookie took her life as a settlement. He put his fist through every wall of that house. Every light smashed and chair overturned. He sat there next to her for hours and couldn’t cry, just held her hand and pulled her ring out of the blood.</em><br /><br />You’re going to find him, and make him pay. Stumble out to the bar. “Take one more look at her, and it will be the end of your days. You low-life bookie, you don’t scare me. I ain’t settling no debt, I ain’t saving no face. One more drink then I’m gone and then I’ll drag you out of this place.” Put it down for the courage, your fists clench with the blood rush. White knuckles when the hit lands, cold concrete and blurred vision. Stumble home from the bar. Stuttered steps home to your front door. On the tip of your tongue, your remorse. Shamed by the loss and defeat. Shamed by your let down to her. The same walk as that first night. Now alone you know that this ain’t right. Better days and the promise you made, ain’t no man supposed to walk out that way. Her ring lies in the thick red, your tears swell, and the room spins. “Dear God, what have I done?” You left her, and he took her, he laid with her. You bastard’s son. With the blackout and the bloodstains, your teeth clench, then the pain comes.<br /><br /><br /><strong>7. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Cemetery Walls" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Cemetery+Walls" class="bbcode_track">Cemetery Walls</a></strong><br /><em>After she was in the ground, he didn’t know what to do. He still towed those lines at work, he still took care of his mother, but nothing was the same. He had lost everything. So he did what they always used to, go sit at their booth at the Copper Coin. Now it was just him, alone. Now he would just get blind drunk, hop the gates to the cemetery and just sit and talk to her.</em><br /><br />Climb those cemetery walls again; leave these flowers at your headstone. Climb those cemetery walls again, every night; you can’t stand the sight of yourself. “Now that you’re gone, what am I to do? But get lost in this bottle thinking of you.” You drink until you’re sick. “I trace the grooves in your stone.” Plot where you’ll bury him, the man that left you alone. You drink until you’re sick, and feel the dew in the grass. As the sun’s coming up, watch a funeral pass. You think to yourself, “That should have been me.” Two in the family plot, when you wish it were three.”<br /><br /><br /><strong>8. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Quiet the Longing" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Quiet+the+Longing" class="bbcode_track">Quiet the Longing</a></strong><br /><em>He got her the nicest headstone he could afford- anything for his girl. He would tell her about mother, about how his hands shook without her. How if he don’t drink they would shake even worse. She would have never wanted to see him this way, and he felt ashamed each time he brought it up. One day, he just stopped going. He couldn’t stand himself any longer.</em><br /><br />You sit, and you stir. You grieve and you grieve. The same chair as your old man, your mother’s worse than you think. Sunken eyes and a withering frame, the needle quiets the longing. That poison it fills her veins. So quiet when the pain comes. Your mother’s rosary ain’t bringing father home. Blood rushes with cigarette burns. There ain’t no God coming to save her. So quiet as the clouds roll. Your mother’s rosary wrapped on the bed post. Blood rushes with cigarette burns. Sit on that dock every night until your head hurts. You sit, and you stir. You grieve and you grieve. The longer you sit at the ocean you lose more time than you think. Your blood runs cold, wind biting under your coat. Pull it tight to your chest. Your mother is praying for death much more than you know. “You coward, this is your fault. Our family has lost everything.” Look down at your hands and your lit cigarette. Put it to your lips and breathe it in. Everything starts to fade and your body is numb. And when you wake in the morning you’re in the house all alone.<br /><br /><strong><br />9. <a title="Defeater &ndash; At Peace" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/At+Peace" class="bbcode_track">At Peace</a></strong><br /><em>He just sat at home with the bottle. His mother had turned into a skeleton of herself, no longer even able to get out of the house to fill up her arms; he had to make the runs for her. He didn’t mind anymore, he knew how she felt. Anything to take away the pain of losing someone. She would just sit with her rosary, rolling the beads in her tiny hands. Every time he left the house for his mother, or for another bottle, he would stand on that dock and watch the ocean like he used to. Scream out to no one for the coward to come home so he could make him pay. And every night he would start to fade with every hour that passed. He would smoke his last cigarette and find himself in the house in the morning not knowing how he got home. And one morning he woke to his mother and her rosary beads no longer hanging on the bedpost.</em><br /><br />You’ve got to find her. Your mother ain’t fit to be alone. Her rosary beads are gone, there’s only one place she’d be. The sun is nearly up, put your jacket back on and walk down the street. Feel the wind start to shift, cold and biting. Just like everything that’s changed. When you do find her, take the only family that you’ve got back to home.<br /><br />Head down, walk through the crowds and the families downtown. You jealous bitter old man, it’s just yourself you can’t stand. The man that took away your wife, coward that left you behind, you would kill them both if you could. Head down, cigarette in hand. Concrete, cold brick and sand to the place where she prays, where she suffers her days. Sleepless nights with the dirt when the addiction hurts. Up to that old white oak door church. And that’s where you find her in that last pew.<br /><br />You touch her cold hand, your mother is gone. In front of her God, needle in her arm. The family plot will be filled. The perfect ending to a tragedy. Put her in the cold wet ground. Finally at peace with her husband now. And you’ve lost all will. Hours strain, but months pass alone with your gun. Blue-collar shipyard, your days have gone.<br /><br />Lost it all for the promise of a normal life. All taken from you when you lost your wife. So you sit in that chair, waiting for death, barrel to your head.<br /><br /><br /><strong>10. <a title="Defeater &ndash; White Oak Doors" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/White+Oak+Doors" class="bbcode_track">White Oak Doors</a></strong><br />Lost in your own head, but then a knock at the door. Put down that drink, your steps creaking the floor. Go and get the gun, distract yourself from death. Back against the door, your hands are starting to sweat. Slowly cock the gun, slowly move to the side, slowly turn the handle, slowly open it wide. You catch a glimpse of his face. Your heart sinks in your chest; your hands start to shake because you know that it’s him. Just the coward and you standing silent, dead air. So you pull him inside into your father’s chair. “Your addict mother is dead, all thanks to you. Her addiction got worse after you left you damn fool. What you did to our father, I promised you’d pay up.<br /><br />I’m going to take your life, but it don’t feel like enough.” Cold steel to his head, walk him to his death. Walk him down past the white oak doors. Walk him out past the boardwalk and your old shipyard. Your pistol in his side, make him pay. On the outskirts of town, pass the old quarry now. Walk him down to those cold steel tracks. You stumble drunk with the gun in his back.<br /><br />“Now get down on your knees on the tracks where you shamed me. But this time, the dodge ain’t going to end so pretty. Either a bullet or that train steaming just ahead is going to end your days. You coward little kid.” You sit and you stir, while he waits for his death. You’ll never forgive him, and you never did forget. He’ll never see the sun again. Make him pay off his debt. Stand on those tracks, cold steel under your feet, barrel to his temple. “Your addict mother, you will soon re-meet,” you whisper in his ear, feel his whole body shake. In an instant he’s got your arm, he’s got your gun, you’re held down by his weight. You feel the cold steel above and below. You feel your stomach tie in knots as the train whistle blows. You feel the warm of the blood where the barrel digs in. From your cheek to your mouth, you taste the sweat and the tin.<br /><br />You don’t cry, you don’t beg. You’ve been waiting for this. For the coward, or for death, just to see your wife again. That train is so close, so loud and so clear. Your hands stop shaking and it’s all that you hear. Just like father. “You took him. If this is how it’s going to be then I would rather die at the hands of my own family.”<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:16pt"><strong>Sleepless Nights</strong></span><br /><strong>11. <a title="Defeater &ndash; But Breathing" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/But+Breathing" class="bbcode_track">But Breathing</a></strong><br />Unwanted, but breathing. In the next room, sleeping. My mother, she’s crying and my father’s been drinking. In our run down apartment, where the roof is still leaking.<br /><br />He’s cursing and cussing, it’s just the whiskey talking. I’ve got lots of memories like this one. Of empty days and nights spent tired and lonesome. When I think back to all of it, it’s all too much when you’re just a little kid. My little brother, just a newborn baby. In the image of my mother, she says he’s a blessing. But not to my father, oh how he hates him. “An undeserving mistake.” He calls him a burden. I’ve got lots of memories like this one. Of picking fights and picking sides between them. When I think back to all of it, it’s all too much when you’re just a little kid. When I wake up in the morning it all feels like a bad dream, one that follows you and haunts you endlessly.<br /><br />Broken and beaten from the abuse and the cheating, the addiction, the lying and the promise of leaving. While my old man was a bastard, I admired and loved him. Us two kids were born in to a family, not a fortune.<br /><br /><br /><strong>12. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Brothers" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Brothers" class="bbcode_track">Brothers</a></strong><br />You need to get out of this house. I’ll walk you down to town. We’ll go act our age, kick rocks, waste summer days. Penny candy at the general store, I’d buy us a pop if I had more. Keep walking inland all day, spitting and cursing each other’s name. “Ain’t this what brothers are supposed to do?” The blood between us, makes it all but true.<br /><br />So we roll on through past the quarries and sandpits too. Swim out among the rocks and cliffs, ignorant youth keeps us from death. Find our way out to the tracks. The sun, it beats down on our backs. Heaven help us if there’s a train, dodge it like the beaches of Normandy. We saw that smoke rising over trees and I swore that train was out for me. So I held him tight and felt those tracks rumble underneath. He swore if I didn’t let go he would knock me off my feet, and that’s what he did.<br /><br /><br /><strong>13. <a title="Defeater &ndash; I Don&rsquo;t Mind" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/I+Don%E2%80%99t+Mind" class="bbcode_track">I Don&rsquo;t Mind</a></strong><br />Let’s talk about the old days, let’s talk about your friends. Let’s talk about the summer and how you wish it wouldn’t end. Did I forget to tell you how pretty you looked in that dress? And the first time that I saw you, you cleaned the mess from my head. And I don’t mind, if we take our time. Let’s go walking on the boardwalk, dip our feet into the sea. Let’s find ourselves lost for hours, until we find ourselves a drink. Let’s talk that sun into setting, just need the sound of your voice. I need that calming and the comfort, something to drown out the noise. And I don’t mind if we take our time, and I’m all yours, if you’re all mine. There’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you, for about three years and a day. I’d very much like to get married and maybe have kids and move away. Because there ain’t nothing like your smile, your legs and those eyes.<br /><br />And I will beg and steal and borrow to keep you safe your whole life.<br /><br /><br /><strong>14. <a title="Defeater &ndash; Headstone" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Headstone" class="bbcode_track">Headstone</a></strong><br />Hello my dear. It’s so nice to see you here. How long has it been? Oh it feels like years, but I’m sure it’s just been days. I’ve been walking around alone, drunk and missing you at home. You know I’ll never feel the same, or ask another girl to take my name. I think I’ve been stopping by too much, I don’t want you to get sick of me. On my way home from the Copper Coin, it’s this or I jump into the sea. I will never forgive myself for not being there to protect you, I should have been at home instead out trying to forget you. Just one fight and I’m out the door. What kind of man am I? I swore I’d never leave your side. Hello my dear, it’s so hard to see you here. How long has it been since we put you in the ground? It feels like days, but it’s been years. “And please don’t call me baby, it’s just too hard to hear. Leave you flowers at your headstone and just sit and talk to you my dear.”</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode"><a href="http://www.last.fm/event/1420233+Defeater+at+Matrix+on+16+May+2010" class="bbcode_event">So., 16. Mai. – Defeater, Dead Swans, More Than Life, Empty Skies, Maestra, Falling Step</a><br /><br />Zuerst einmal: Ich schreibe subjektiv. Wer einen objektiven Tatsachenbericht sucht, kann direkt weitersuchen. Ich kritisiere, wo Kritik angebracht ist, so deal with that. <br /><br />Da ist sie. Die Band auf die alle gewartet haben. Nach Verlust der Genregrößen waren nur zwei Pfade offen: Nachfolger gesucht oder Aus und Vorbei. <br />Die Lösung steht heute abend vor einem, und sie überzeugt auf ganzer Linie.<br /><br />Doch beginnen wir am Anfang. Nach erstem überstandenen Unmut über die Location und folgende Missgunst über die Wahl des &quot;Schlauch des Schreckens&quot;, respektive Tube, als Austragungsort, fand man sich doch voller Vorfreude kurz vor Einlass vor den Hallen der Matrix ein, während einige Herren der Dead Swans noch ihre Skateboardkreise auf dem Parkplatz zogen. Matrix ist ja immer so ein Ding für sich, angefangen bei der wahnsinnig schlechten Belüftung über die Temperatur bis hin zur Lautstärke, welche einen Tinnitus geradezu garantiert, es gibt wahrlich bessere Orte für ein Konzert. Speziell auch die hohe Bühne wurde im Vorfeld als deutlich schlecht geeignet für ein Konzert dieser Art bewertet. <br />Doch um ehrlich zu sein: So schlecht war beispielsweise die Bühnenhöhe gar nicht. Die Sicht war für niemanden eingeschränkt, Stagedives konnten zu noch spektakuläreren Höhen gebracht werden und das Problem ständig in Richtung Schlagzeug gepresst zu werden war auch eher minimiert. <br /><br />Aber nun weiter im Programm: Der Merchstand war mehr schlecht als recht bedeckt, da hatte man doch mehr Auswahl erwartet. Andererseits aber auch gut, es geht hier ja nicht um den x-tausendsten T-Shirtkauf, sondern um die Musik. Herzmusik und Kotklamotten. Darf ruhig öfter so gehandhabt werden. Dreist fand ich höchstens den Shirtpreis von <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Empty+Skies" class="bbcode_artist">Empty Skies</a>, ich meine, klar, nicht jede Band hat das Geld für tolle Designs usw. aber das sah eher wie fünf Minuten Paint und jede Menge Zeit mit Mamas Bügeleisen aus. Sorry Jungs! Kann ja noch werden.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Empty+Skies" class="bbcode_artist">Empty Skies</a> waren im Übrigen auch die Opener des Abends, immer ein harter Platz, speziell wenn die angereiste Unterstützung noch im Stau auf sich warten lässt. Ich mag es nicht sonderlich mich über noch in den Startlöchern stehenden Bands groß auszulassen, da fehlt halt noch die Routine und das Selbstvertrauen für wirklich großartige Momente. Was man so sah war aber ganz in Ordnung, Gruppenchoreographie eingeschlossen. Amüsant waren die zeitweise nach <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Danse+Macabre" class="bbcode_artist">Danse Macabre</a> klingenden Drums. Nur warum zur Hölle direkt zwei Sänger? Wollen da die bei <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/More+Than+Life" class="bbcode_artist">More Than Life</a> bereits bekannten Probleme, sprich: Stimmverlust, umgangen werden? Wenn das so ist: Der werte Herr im Verse-Shirt klang zum Ende hin doch recht ausgelaugt, von daher: Gut gemacht, in diesem bedingten Fall. <strong>5,5/10</strong><br /><br />Nach diesem ersten Abendfüller folgte erstmal Ernüchterung: Warum bin ich doch so früh gekommen? Hätte man heute abend mal wirklich das Arschloch raushängen lassen sollen und nur für die ausländischen Bands kommen sollen? Es scheint fast so. Sechs Bands an einem Abend sind einfach zuviel. <br />Und so reifte schnell der Entschluss die folgenden beiden Bands zu überspringen und sich erst zu späterer Stunde wieder unten einzufinden. <br />Neugier siegte trotzdem, die kurzen Hörproben sowohl bei <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Falling+Step" class="bbcode_artist">Falling Step</a> als auch bei <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Maestra" class="bbcode_artist">Maestra</a> waren solide, mehr nicht. Begeisterung stellte sich bei mir jedenfalls nicht ein, jedoch auch kein urplötzlicher Trieb wegzurennen. Aber man kann ihnen auch nicht böse sein, mit den nachfolgenden Bands zu konkurrieren wäre höchstens töricht. <strong>5/10</strong><br /><br />Da standen sie auf der Bühne. Das Studiowunder. Ich nahm an, dass der dritte von mir besuchte Auftritt von <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/More+Than+Life" class="bbcode_artist">More Than Life</a> ähnlich wie die beiden davor sein würde: Zu Beginn sehr gut und zum Ende hin immer schlechter, bis zum Stimmverlust des Sängers. Doch - oh wunder! - dem war dieses Mal nicht so. Die zwischenzeitlichen Stimmprobleme wurden durch viele, viele Gastsänger kompensiert. Auch die Begeisterung des Publikums hätte ich im Voraus nicht erwartet, doch so, mit dieser deutlich im Live-Bereich besser gewordenen Band als Grundlage, war jede Menge Bewegung da. Ausgefallene Mikros stellten da höchstens temporäre Probleme da, wobei Instrumentalversionen natürlich ihren ganz eigenen Reiz haben, ha. <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/More+Than+Life" class="bbcode_artist">More Than Life</a> werden somit immer besser, nun endlich auch im Livebereich. Ein Grund mehr einen Blick in's neue Album zu werfen! <strong>8/10</strong><br /><br />Tot war bei den darauf folgenden Mannen schon öfter was gewesen, zum Beispiel die Stimmung. <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Dead+Swans" class="bbcode_artist">Dead Swans</a> sind meistens gähnend langweilig, und niemand kann sagen, warum das so ist. Aus schlechter Stimmung folgt schlechte Laune auf Seiten der Band und resultiert in noch schlechterer Stimmung. <del>Auch dieses Mal war es einfach nur scheiße.</del> Doch halt! Da gibt sich ja mal jemand Mühe! Sowohl Publikum als auch Band! Wow! Tatsächlich war es gar nicht so schlecht wie im Vorfeld erwartet. Man kam zwar nicht im Geringsten an die vorhergehenden <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/More+Than+Life" class="bbcode_artist">More Than Life</a> heran, war aber auch nicht der erwartete Totalausfall des Abends. Trotzdem muss ich hier Kritik üben: So sehr sich auch heute bemüht wurde, es war einfach nicht <em>gut</em>. Zwar doch der beste Auftritt, den ich bis jetzt von ihnen erleben durfte, aber da fehlt doch noch so einiges bis zu einer stimmigen Liveshow. Deshalb: <strong>3,5/10</strong><br /><br />Um die Metapher von Beginn des Textes zu schließen: Das Resultat des richtigen Pfades steht vor einem. Nach dem Wegfall der Meilensteine <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Have+Heart" class="bbcode_artist">Have Heart</a> und <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Verse" class="bbcode_artist">Verse</a>, gibt es nun einen neuen: <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater" class="bbcode_artist">Defeater</a>. Und nach dem was man gestern erleben durfte, mag ich nichtmal mehr von einem &quot;Meilen&quot;stein reden, das gestern war viel mehr ein Lichtjahresstein. Diese Band macht einfach alles richtig. Nimmt die besten Zutaten der beiden vergangenen Genregrößen, merzt deren Fehler aus und mischt gleichzeitig noch so viel Sympathie hinein, dass es einen fast vor Euphorie schmerzt. <br />Gespannte Stimmung vor Beginn, Gefühlsentladung danach. Texte voll Schmerz und Verlust aus gefühlten tausend Kehlen. Ansagen aus tiefster Dankbarkeit. Das gelegentliche Schmunzeln in den Augen der Besucher und der Band als Antwort auf die Gefühle, die hochkamen. Man hofft, dass diese Momente ewig dauern würden. Diese Selbstaufgabe der Identität im Stimmenkollektiv. Diese Begeisterung über die Spielfreude des Fünfers aus Massachusetts. Jede einzelne Ansage lässt Möglichkeit zur Selbstreflexion offen und lässt einen mit den Aussagen zustimmen.   Man kann sich nur mit <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater" class="bbcode_artist">Defeater</a> identifizieren. <br />Man mag kaum daran denken, was sich aus dieser Band noch alles entwickeln könnte - und wird. Sie strahlen jetzt bereits auf Höhe vergangener Supernovae im modernen Hardcore-Himmel. Es braucht nur wenig mehr, und diese Band überstrahlt auch diese. <strong>10/10</strong><br /><br /><br />Highlight des Abends: Akkustikpart bei &quot;<a title="Defeater &ndash; Prophet In Plain Clothes" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Prophet+In+Plain+Clothes" class="bbcode_track">Prophet In Plain Clothes</a>&quot;.<br /><br /><br />Ein zu Beginn nur durchschnittlicher Abend endete für mich mit einer der besten Shows, die ich bis jetzt besuchen durfte. Es wird nicht das letzte Mal gewesen sein, dass ich mir Defeater ansehen werde. Auch auf More Than Life werde ich nun öfter ein Auge werfen, Potential nach oben ist da!<br /><br />Insgesamtwertung: <br /><strong>6/10</strong> ohne Defeater.<br /><strong>10/10</strong> dank Defeater.<br /><br />Für mich unter den Top 5-Shows meines Lebens.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode">So a lot of people were asking for them and I try to fulfil that request by writing this journal.

<br />Did you ever hear that coffin sound?<br />It means another poor boy is in the ground.<br />Have you ever heard them church bells toll?<br />It means another poor boy is dead and gone.<br />The preacher preachs.<br />Holdin' folded flags.<br />Mother mourns.<br />Holdin' folded flags.<br />Just caskets and folded flags.<br />Just folded flags.<br />No hope.<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Track 4: <a title="Defeater &ndash; Home Ain't Never Home" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Home+Ain%27t+Never+Home" class="bbcode_track">Home Ain't Never Home</a></strong><br /><br />I'm wanderin' these streets alone.<br />They don't feel like home.<br />This once hallowed ground<br />Feels like a ghost town now.<br />I'm on the street corner every day<br />And at night I drink it away.<br />This flask that saved my life<br />Might be the death of me.<br />Ain't no man in this city<br />Will take a chance on me.<br />The color of my skin is all they see.<br />I was a hero when I came home<br />Now no one seems to know.<br />And this medal that I received,<br />It means nothing to me.<br />I keep readin' my momma's prayer.<br />But I find nothin' there that makes any sense to me.<br />Her god is no more than a thief.<br /><br />I'm gonna pack up.<br />I'm gonna leave on a train car headin' north bound.<br />With my lost hope, I'm gonna get out.<br />Carry burdens, carry my guilt.<br />I'm gonna leave.<br /><br />Poor yound soul that died in vain.<br />Every soldier lost in this country's name.<br />My guilt, and my shame.<br />My pride and no name.<br />Just burdens.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Track 5: <a title="Defeater &ndash; Singin' New York Town" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Singin%27+New+York+Town" class="bbcode_track">Singin' New York Town</a></strong><br /><br />My saviour, this city.<br />My comfort, her pity.<br />Or so I hoped.<br />My heartache, my hard luck,<br />My war time, my struggle, <br />That no one knows-<br /><br />In the alleys where I sleep<br />I beg and beg for the food I eat.<br />All the pain and the hurt in your gut where it burns.<br />Every man here is just like me.<br />The wind blowin' 'round the snow,<br />Makes a man freeze straight to the bone.<br />So I drink and I drink and I try not to think of all the people I lost at home.<br /><br />These six strings I'm playin'<br />And these songs I'm singin'<br />Keep me alive.<br />These strangers that curse me.<br />The hero they don't see.<br />Just waitin' to die.<br />I ain't the man I used to be.<br />I feel the city as it's crushin' me.<br />I am losin' ground on these city streets.<br />New York Town has got the best of me.<br /><br />The southern ground where my momma sleeps.<br />She found death and she found peace.<br />There's an empty grave next to where she lay.<br />The where I'm supposed to be.<br /><br />I beg and I plead for her god to hear me.<br />He's just a coward.<br />And a thief.<br />I pray and I pray, If he is there to answer me,<br />But I hear nothin'. <br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Track 6: <a title="Defeater &ndash; Beggin' in the Slums" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Defeater/_/Beggin%27+in+the+Slums" class="bbcode_track">Beggin' in the Slums</a></strong><br /><br />I ain't been sleepin' well these days.<br />I lie awake listenin' to the trains,<br />Wishing for one to come and take me away.<br />I've lost my way, every place I've been.<br />I'm tired of thinkin' of all the hurt I've seen.<br />Wishin' for death to finally take me.<br /><br />My days are all the same.<br />On the corners I beg and play.<br />I blow my lungs out for some stranger's change.<br />The nights are long and cold under bridges,<br />When you're all alone.<br />The embers of the fire build like drifts of snow.<br />I've been thrown out.<br />I've been let down.<br /><br />Never felt the promise of this town <br />There was supposed to be when I left home.<br />I am washed up, on my last breath.<br />Just an old man with nothin' left.<br />It ain't the way it was supposed to be when I came home.<br />My ups and my downs have burnt me out.<br />These people watchin' me and the swan song I sing.<br />And in the crowd I see the eyes that have been broken down, just like mine.<br />I hope my words dig deep.<br />I hope he's listenin', and see's that I've become just a beaten man beggin' in the slums.<br /><br />My hope.<br />I finally found my hope in the poor lost soul's eyes that were burnin' just like mine.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode"><a href="http://www.last.fm/festival/432924+Vainstream+Rockfest+2008" class="bbcode_event">Sat 28 Jun – Vainstream Rockfest 2008</a><br /><br />Sososo. <br />Das war es dann mal wieder! <br />Das Vainstream Rockfest ist somit offiziell vorbei, die Wunden werden geleckt, man schwärmt noch immer und der Tinnitus wird einen noch die nächste Woche als treuer Freund begleiten, hei, das macht Spaß, das wollen wa wieder! <br /><br />Los ging der Tag für mich um Punkt Sieben Uhr als der Wecker mich aus einem wunderschönen Traum der sich um  Circle Pits &quot;drehte&quot;, herausriss. <br />Acht Uhr: Ab in's Auto, los gehts! <br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Sick+Of+It+All" class="bbcode_artist">Sick Of It All</a> und <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Comeback+Kid" class="bbcode_artist">Comeback Kid</a> zum Warmmachen sind da immer superb.<br /><br />Um 8:55 war man dann endlich am Hawerkamp und sah schon die schwarzen Massen Richtung Festivalgelände laufen. Man schloss sich schnell an und schon kam das, was jeden Festivalisten graust: Warten. <br />Die Bändchenausgabe verschob sich, warum auch immer, um 30 Minuten nach hinten, es nieselte leicht und man hörte schon Musik - sollten <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n" class="bbcode_artist">Callej&oacute;n</a> etwa schon angefangen haben?<br /><br />Doch - Entwarnung. Die Boxen wurden nur kurz getestet. Der Einlass wurde dieses Jahr erneut überarbeitet und so war ich dann bereits nach 5 Minuten komplett mit Essen und Trinken auf dem Gelände. <br />Einmal kurz rumlaufen, viele Bierstände, viele Shoppingstände, Guitar-Hero-Contest von Atticus, und - Dixiklos. Jede Menge. Also erstmal los und gleich fünf Stück entjungfern. <br /><br />Nach weiterem kurzen Warten und erfrischendem Nieselregen begannen <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Callejón</strong></span> ihr Screamo-Mosh-Gewitter zu spielen, ein perfekter Aufheizer für einen perfekten Tag. <br />Die Setlist müsste ungefähr so gewesen sein:<br />1. Intro<br />2. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; Es Regnet" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/Es+Regnet" class="bbcode_track">Es Regnet</a><br />3. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; In dunklen Wassern brennt ein Licht" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/In+dunklen+Wassern+brennt+ein+Licht" class="bbcode_track">In dunklen Wassern brennt ein Licht</a><br />4. Neuer Song (Der letzte Tag des John Wayne?)<br />5. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; Erkenntnis" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/Erkenntnis" class="bbcode_track">Erkenntnis</a> <br />6. Neuer Song (Der frühe Vogel fängt den Wurm)<br />7. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; Snake Mountain" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/Snake+Mountain" class="bbcode_track">Snake Mountain</a><br />8. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; Mirage" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/Mirage" class="bbcode_track">Mirage</a><br />9. <a title="Callej&oacute;n &ndash; loreley" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Callej%C3%B3n/_/loreley" class="bbcode_track">loreley</a><br />Sehr toller Auftritt, eine Wall of Death, eine Wall of Brötchen und ein schöner erster Circle Pit.<br /><br />Weiter ging es mit <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Shai Hulud</strong></span>. Hatte ich mir vorher ein paar Mal zu Genüge getan und war überrascht: Welch' Energie! Welch' Stimme! <br />Top! Leider kann ich nicht soviel zur Band sagen, da mich menschliche Gelüste zum erstbesten Bierstand zogen und das Wasser ausgetestet werden wollte.<br /><br />Danach spielten <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>The Grit</strong></span>. Kann ich auch nichts zu sagen, Wasser wollte weiter getestet werden. ;) <br /><br />Um 12 Uhr spielten <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Bring Me The Horizon</strong></span> auf. Für viele ein, wenn nicht DER Höhepunkt des Tages. <br />Für mich eher ein Armutszeugnis für die &quot;Scene&quot; (uhh, ich hasse dieses Wort) und ein Glanzpunkt für die Band. Wie zur Hölle kann es mehr nach Haarspray und Parfüm als nach Schweiss und Kippen riechen? Hallo?! <br />BMTH haben zwei neue Songs gespielt, &quot;<a title="Bring Me the Horizon &ndash; Football Season Is Over" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Bring+Me+the+Horizon/_/Football+Season+Is+Over" class="bbcode_track">Football Season Is Over</a>&quot; und &quot;<a title="Bring Me the Horizon &ndash; Diamonds Aren't Forever" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Bring+Me+the+Horizon/_/Diamonds+Aren%27t+Forever" class="bbcode_track">Diamonds Aren't Forever</a>&quot; (Videos bei YT).<br />Solide Show! Sound war dementsprechend gut und der Moshpit war ausgeglichen und fair. Schön! <br /><br />Nach den werten Herren rund um Frontfrau Oli Sykes wollte man auftrumpfen: Motocross-Show. Yeah. Geil.<br />Zitat, MTV: &quot;NEXT!&quot;<br />Tschuldigung, aber DAS war unnötig, wenigstens hatte man so 20 Minuten Zeit um sich zu entspannen. :) <br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Neaera</strong></span> waren danach dran. Kann ich leider auch nicht viel zu sagen, habe mich schon an ihnen sattgesehen. :) Das, was ich von weitem gehört habe, war jedenfalls gut gespielt und gut gecircelt wurde auch. <br />Setlist soll wohl folgende gewesen sein:<br />1. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Armamentarium" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Armamentarium" class="bbcode_track">Armamentarium</a><br />2. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Where Submission Reigns" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Where+Submission+Reigns" class="bbcode_track">Where Submission Reigns</a><br />3. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Walls instead of Bridges" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Walls+instead+of+Bridges" class="bbcode_track">Walls instead of Bridges</a><br />4. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Let The Tempest Come" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Let+The+Tempest+Come" class="bbcode_track">Let The Tempest Come</a><br />5. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Spearheading the Spawn" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Spearheading+the+Spawn" class="bbcode_track">Spearheading the Spawn</a><br />6. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Paradigm Lost" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Paradigm+Lost" class="bbcode_track">Paradigm Lost</a><br />7. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Scars Of Gray" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Scars+Of+Gray" class="bbcode_track">Scars Of Gray</a><br />8. <a title="Neaera &ndash; The World Devourers" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/The+World+Devourers" class="bbcode_track">The World Devourers</a> <br />9. <a title="Neaera &ndash; Synergy" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Neaera/_/Synergy" class="bbcode_track">Synergy</a><br /><br />Danach hatte ich ein kleines Rendezvous am Atticus-Stand, wo ein Guitar Hero - Contest stattfand und man ein T-Shirt gewinnen konnte, klar als passionierter Zocker mache ich da natürlich gerne mit. :) <br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Negative Approach</strong></span> lärmten aus der Ferne, das was der Wind herüberwehte war super! <br />14:00 Uhr ging der Contest los, es wurde &quot;Prayer of the Refugee&quot; auf Schwer gespielt. <br />Tja, wie es das Schicksal so will, ich gewann und kann mich nun Besitzer eines schicken neuen Atticus-Shirts nennen. :) <br /><br />Ungefähr um 14:05 begann es dann auch immer stärker zu regnen, so dass die <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Mad Caddies</strong></span>, als Sommer- und Gute-Laune-Band schlechthin, die Massen aufheitern mussten. :) <br />Ich fand den Regen soweit sehr entspannend und setzte mich schonmal in Bewegung um einen guten Platz bei <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>All Shall Perish</strong></span> zu ergattern. <br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Mad+Caddies" class="bbcode_artist">Mad Caddies</a> spielten in der Zwischenzeit unbeirrt weiter, sehr schöne Musik, bei der man einfach mal die Augen schliessen und alles um sich herum vergessen konnte. <br /><br />Um 14:45 spielten die Jungs um Eddie Hermina, <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>All Shall Perish</strong></span>, zum fröhlichen Ringelpietz mit Anfassen auf. <br />Hellyeah! Party, Party, Party! <br />Sehr tolle Setlist mit allen Hits und zwei neuen Songs:<br />1. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; No Business To Be Done On A Dead Planet" href="http://www.last.fm/music/All+Shall+Perish/_/No+Business+To+Be+Done+On+A+Dead+Planet" class="bbcode_track">No Business To Be Done On A Dead Planet</a><br />2. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; Laid to Rest" href="http://www.last.fm/music/All+Shall+Perish/_/Laid+to+Rest" class="bbcode_track">Laid to Rest</a><br />3. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; Deconstruction" href="http://www.last.fm/music/All+Shall+Perish/_/Deconstruction" class="bbcode_track">Deconstruction</a><br />4. Never Again (NEUER SONG!)<br />5. NEUER SONG!<br />6. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; Day of justice" href="http://www.last.fm/music/+noredirect/All+Shall+Perish/_/Day+of+justice" class="bbcode_track">Day of justice</a><br />7. <a title="Judas Priest &ndash; Breaking The Law" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Judas+Priest/_/Breaking+The+Law" class="bbcode_track">Breaking The Law</a> (Cover)<br />8. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; Eradication" href="http://www.last.fm/music/All+Shall+Perish/_/Eradication" class="bbcode_track">Eradication</a><br />9. <a title="All Shall Perish &ndash; Wage Slaves" href="http://www.last.fm/music/All+Shall+Perish/_/Wage+Slaves" class="bbcode_track">Wage Slaves</a><br />Leider war der Boden soo rutschig, das ich mich beim Circle Pit so arg aufs Maul legte, das mein ganzes Knie aufgerissen war. Grr. Autsch.<br /><br />Die werten Herren <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Broilers</strong></span>, leider ohne Ines, die nach einem Fahrradunfall nicht spielen konnte, waren danach dran. <br />Nachdem sie im letzten Jahr schon alles abgerissen hatten was nur Beine hatte, durften sie dieses Jahr wieder spielen, und, was soll man sagen, sie waren göttlich! <br />Leider war es vorne soo eng, dass ich mich nicht mehr genau auf die Setlist konzentrieren konnte, <a title="Broilers &ndash; Meine Sache" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Broilers/_/Meine+Sache" class="bbcode_track">Meine Sache</a>, <a title="Broilers &ndash; Zur&uuml;ck Zum Beton" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Broilers/_/Zur%C3%BCck+Zum+Beton" class="bbcode_track">Zur&uuml;ck Zum Beton</a> und <a title="Broilers &ndash; Ruby, Light and Dark" href="http://www.last.fm/music/+noredirect/Broilers/_/Ruby%2C+Light+and+Dark" class="bbcode_track">Ruby, Light and Dark</a> waren aber auf jeden Fall dabei, wenn jemand die Seltlist ein wenig kompletter hat, kann er sie ja als Kommentar posten! <br /><br />Danach: 20 Minuten Pause wegen Motocross-Show. Fein. <br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Madball</strong></span> rund um den kleinen ;) Freddy Cricien waren danach an der Reihe. <br />Harrr. Geile Show, mit allem was dazu gehört, &quot;<a title="Madball &ndash; Down By Law" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Madball/_/Down+By+Law" class="bbcode_track">Down By Law</a>&quot; und Fussballgesängen. Die spontane <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Agnostic+Front" class="bbcode_artist">Agnostic Front</a>-&quot;<a title="Agnostic Front &ndash; Gotta Go" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Agnostic+Front/_/Gotta+Go" class="bbcode_track">Gotta Go</a>&quot; Choreinlage war einfach genial und Gänsehaut vorprogrammiert. <br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Anti-Flag</strong></span> mit ihrem immer politischer werdendem Punk waren danach dran. Hachja, man kann ja sagen was man will über sie, nur eins sind sie sicher nicht: Langweilig. Die Show war soweit sehr toll, nur dass ich vielleicht nur 30% der Lieder kannte, war ärgerlich, hätte ich mal mehr hören sollen. ;) <br /><a title="Anti-Flag &ndash; Good And Ready" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Anti-Flag/_/Good+And+Ready" class="bbcode_track">Good And Ready</a> und <a title="Anti-Flag &ndash; The Bright Lights Of America" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Anti-Flag/_/The+Bright+Lights+Of+America" class="bbcode_track">The Bright Lights Of America</a> waren jedenfalls toll! <br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Comeback Kid</strong></span>! Nach der Never Say Die-Tour des letzten Jahres nun zum zweiten Male. Ich fand sie sehr toll, konnte jedoch nur von weitem zusehen, da meine Füße nicht mehr so ganz, nach 8 Stunden stehen und tanzen mitspielten. ;) <br />Bei <a title="Comeback Kid &ndash; Wake the Dead" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Comeback+Kid/_/Wake+the+Dead" class="bbcode_track">Wake the Dead</a> war ich jedoch nochmal vorne drin. <br /><br />Um 18:30 sollte sich ein Höhepunkt des Tages hervortun. Die 7 Irish-Punk-Veteranen von <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Flogging Molly</strong></span> aus dem schönen Los Angeles spielten zum Tanz auf. <br />Und da war nun wirklich alles dabei, von <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; Drunken Lullabies" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/Drunken+Lullabies" class="bbcode_track">Drunken Lullabies</a>, über <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; whistles of the wind" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/whistles+of+the+wind" class="bbcode_track">whistles of the wind</a>, zu <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; What's Left of the Flag" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/What%27s+Left+of+the+Flag" class="bbcode_track">What's Left of the Flag</a>, <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; If I Ever Leave This World Alive" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/If+I+Ever+Leave+This+World+Alive" class="bbcode_track">If I Ever Leave This World Alive</a> und <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; Seven Deadly Sins" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/Seven+Deadly+Sins" class="bbcode_track">Seven Deadly Sins</a> wurde alles gespielt. <br />Sogar eines meiner Lieblingslieder, <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; Selfish Man" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/Selfish+Man" class="bbcode_track">Selfish Man</a>, wurde gespielt. Auch <a title="Flogging Molly &ndash; Requiem for a Dying Song" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Flogging+Molly/_/Requiem+for+a+Dying+Song" class="bbcode_track">Requiem for a Dying Song</a> war dabei. <br />Die Stimmung war ausgelassen und friedlich. <br />Top Top Top!<br /><br />Danach, mal wieder, Pause auf Grund der suuuper Motocross-Show. :D<br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Caliban</strong></span> hatten dann die Aufgabe das Publikum zum kochen zu bringen. Und, was soll ich sagen, sie schafften es. <br />Eine wunderbare Deutschland vs. Spanien - Wall of Death war der Auftakt des zweitgrößten Circle-Pits nach <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Sick+Of+It+All" class="bbcode_artist">Sick Of It All</a>. <br />Wow!<br />Setlist lautet folgendermaßen:<br />1. <a title="Caliban &ndash; Nowhere to Run, No Place to Hide" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/Nowhere+to+Run%2C+No+Place+to+Hide" class="bbcode_track">Nowhere to Run, No Place to Hide</a><br />2. <a title="Caliban &ndash; Forsaken Horizon" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/Forsaken+Horizon" class="bbcode_track">Forsaken Horizon</a><br />3. <a title="Caliban &ndash; It's Our Burden to Bleed" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/It%27s+Our+Burden+to+Bleed" class="bbcode_track">It's Our Burden to Bleed</a><br />4. <a title="Caliban &ndash; I've Sold Myself" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/I%27ve+Sold+Myself" class="bbcode_track">I've Sold Myself</a> (-&gt;Wall Of Death)<br />5. <a title="Caliban &ndash; My Time Has Come" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/My+Time+Has+Come" class="bbcode_track">My Time Has Come</a><br />6. <a title="Caliban &ndash; Between The Worlds" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/Between+The+Worlds" class="bbcode_track">Between The Worlds</a><br />7. <a title="Caliban &ndash; I Will Never Let You Down" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/I+Will+Never+Let+You+Down" class="bbcode_track">I Will Never Let You Down</a><br />8. <a title="Caliban &ndash; The Revenge" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/The+Revenge" class="bbcode_track">The Revenge</a><br />9. <a title="Caliban &ndash; Goodbye" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/Goodbye" class="bbcode_track">Goodbye</a><br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Coheed and Cambria</strong></span> hatten danach die Ehre sich in die Herzen der Vainstream Rockfest-Besucher zu verewigen. <br />Man sah mehr Haar als Mensch, als Claudio Sanchez mit seinen Bandkollegen auf die Bühne trat und mit &quot;<a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; No World For Tomorrow" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/No+World+For+Tomorrow" class="bbcode_track">No World For Tomorrow</a>&quot; ein heiteres Sci-Fi-Prog-Rock-Fest begann. Nachdem die Konzerte im Januar alle ausgefallen waren, war dies nun ein lohnender Ersatz. <br />Leider klang das werte Stimmchen des Herren Sanchez doch mitunter ein wenig, nunja, schrill. <br />Trotzdem war der Auftritt genial, das Solo von <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Welcome Home" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Welcome+Home" class="bbcode_track">Welcome Home</a> brachte Gänsehaut mit sich. <br />Setlist:<br />1. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; No World For Tomorrow" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/No+World+For+Tomorrow" class="bbcode_track">No World For Tomorrow</a><br />2. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Gravemakers And Gunslingers" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Gravemakers+And+Gunslingers" class="bbcode_track">Gravemakers And Gunslingers</a><br />3. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Ten Speed" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Ten+Speed" class="bbcode_track">Ten Speed</a><br />4. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; A Favour House Atlantic" href="http://www.last.fm/music/+noredirect/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/A+Favour+House+Atlantic" class="bbcode_track">A Favour House Atlantic</a><br />5. &quot;Evil Medley&quot; (<a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Everything Evil" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Everything+Evil" class="bbcode_track">Everything Evil</a> Part 1, <a title="Iron Maiden &ndash; The Trooper" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Iron+Maiden/_/The+Trooper" class="bbcode_track">The Trooper</a>, <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Devil In Jersey City" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Devil+In+Jersey+City" class="bbcode_track">Devil In Jersey City</a>, <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Everything Evil" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Everything+Evil" class="bbcode_track">Everything Evil</a> Part 2)<br />6. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/In+Keeping+Secrets+Of+Silent+Earth" class="bbcode_track">In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth</a><br />7. <a title="Coheed and Cambria &ndash; Welcome Home" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Coheed+and+Cambria/_/Welcome+Home" class="bbcode_track">Welcome Home</a> <br /><br />Nach C&amp;C war es für mich soweit meinen persönlichen Headliner des Tages zu erleben: <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Tiger Army</strong></span>!!<br />Es war zum Glück, aber auch leider, so voll, dass ich ohne Probleme und großes Quetschen in die erste Reihe kam. Soviele Leute kannten <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army" class="bbcode_artist">Tiger Army</a> wohl nicht, jedoch waren die meisten, mit denen ich nachher gesprochen habe positiv überrascht und wollten sich &quot;mal weiter einhören&quot;. <br />Bestes Zitat des Tages:<br />&quot;We are Tiger Army from California.&quot;<br />&quot;Lauter&quot;<br />&quot;WE ARE TIGER ARMY FROM CALIFORNIAAAAAAA!!!!!!!&quot;<br />Zu geil. :D<br />Geoff Kresge hat an seinem Stand-Up-Bass wirklich mit die beste Performance des Tages geliefert. <br />Schade war nur, dass, warum auch immer, die Stimme von Nick 13 nicht so gut rüberkam, wie sie rüberkommen hätte können. War wohl irgendwas mit dem Mikro, die Instrumente waren jedenfalls alle glasklar!<br />Hier ist die Setlist:<br />1. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Prelude: Signal Return" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Prelude%3A+Signal+Return" class="bbcode_track">Prelude: Signal Return</a><br />2. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Afterworld" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Afterworld" class="bbcode_track">Afterworld</a><br />3. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Nocturnal" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Nocturnal" class="bbcode_track">Nocturnal</a><br />4. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Atomic" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Atomic" class="bbcode_track">Atomic</a><br />5. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Devil Girl" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Devil+Girl" class="bbcode_track">Devil Girl</a><br />6. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Ghosts Of Memory" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Ghosts+Of+Memory" class="bbcode_track">Ghosts Of Memory</a><br />7. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Incorporeal" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Incorporeal" class="bbcode_track">Incorporeal</a><br />8. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Rose of the Devil's Garden" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Rose+of+the+Devil%27s+Garden" class="bbcode_track">Rose of the Devil's Garden</a><br />9. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Pain" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Pain" class="bbcode_track">Pain</a><br />10. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; F.T.W." href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/F.T.W." class="bbcode_track">F.T.W.</a><br />11. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Swift Silent Deadly" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Swift+Silent+Deadly" class="bbcode_track">Swift Silent Deadly</a><br />12. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Forever Fades Away" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Forever+Fades+Away" class="bbcode_track">Forever Fades Away</a><br />13. <a title="Tiger Army &ndash; Never Die" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Tiger+Army/_/Never+Die" class="bbcode_track">Never Die</a><br /><br /><span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown"><strong>Sick of it All</strong></span> fand ich dann noch sehr amüsant, jedoch war ich sooo tot, dass ich mich nicht mehr allzu sehr bewegen konnte. Jedenfalls wurde ein heiterer Mix aus 20 Jahren <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Sick+Of+It+All" class="bbcode_artist">Sick Of It All</a> gespielt.<br /><br /><br />Dies war für mich das Beste Vainstream Rockfest in seiner dreijährigen Geschichte. Für manche mag das letztjährige Line-Up vielleicht besser gewesen sein, aber dieses Jahr hatte man einfach alles: <br />Einen um Weiten verbesserten Eingang, nette Securities, <strong>TOLLE</strong> Twin Stages, genügend Fress- und Trinkstände, ein sehr ausgewogenes Line-Up und das netteste und toleranteste Publikum seit Jahren! <br />Vielen Dank an die Veranstalter, vielen Dank an alle Besucher, man sieht sich, vielleicht, nächstes Jahr wieder!<br />Ich würde mich freuen, wenn jeder Kommentare hinterlassen würde, merci! <br /><em>xxx.</em></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode"><a href="http://www.last.fm/festival/550146+27.+Pfingst+Open+Air+Werden" class="bbcode_event">Mon 12 May – 27. Pfingst Open Air Werden</a><br /><br />Alle Jahre wieder - möchte man meinen - versammeln sich rund 8000 Menschen in Essen-Werden zu einem Event, dass so nicht oft stattfindet: (Oft) gutes Wetter, tolle Stimmung, viele nette Menschen und, für viele das Wichtigste, ein <em>kostenloses</em> Vergnügen.<br /><br />Pünktlich wie die Maurer (wohl eher viel zu spät) stand ich/quetschte ich mich/wurde ich im Zug nach Werden erdrückt. Oh man! Aber was will man tun, Parkplätze sind rar, und Stimmung kommt sonst auch nicht auf (wenn man unter Stimmung Schweiss, Lärm und schlechte Luft versteht).<br /><br />Einlass war wieder problemlos geregelt, Tasche auf, Blick rein, los geht's. So ging's auf jeden Fall schnell, ob alles gefährliche rausgefiltert wurde - keine Ahnung. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Thoughts+Paint+the+Sky" class="bbcode_artist">Thoughts Paint the Sky</a> fingen gerade an ihre wütenden und doch ruhigen Songs erklingen zu lassen und ich liess mich sofort gerne in den ersten, kleinen Moshpit für mich hineinfallen. Musik gefällt, Menschen entspannt und Stimmung, für diesen frühen Zeitpunkt, auf einem Maximum. Super!<br /><br />Danach hiess es erst mal: Sonne pur. Also kurz einen freien Fleck gesucht (war schon anstrengender, so voll wie dieses Jahr war's wahrscheinlich noch nie!) und hingelegt. Von hinten Dröhnen der Elektrobühne, von vorne Dröhnen von den <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/The+Dead+Bohemes" class="bbcode_artist">The Dead Bohemes</a>: Ahhh. Entspannung. Endlich. <br />Es war ja auch wieder mal unglaublich heiss. Da nur ein Liter mit hinein gebracht werden durfte, musste wohl oder übel Wassermangel herrschen, auch wenn die Getränkepreise (2€ Bier, 1€ Wasser) äußerst human waren. <br /><br />Weiter ging es für mich, nach einem eher &quot;so nebenbei gehörtem und für ganz gut befundenem&quot; Auftritt von <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Fidget" class="bbcode_artist">Fidget</a> dann um 17:30. <br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Born+From+Pain" class="bbcode_artist">Born From Pain</a>. Zum dritten Mal. In zehn Monaten. Mit dem dritten Sänger.<br />Arrr! Was wird das denn Leute? Könntet ihr euch auch noch mal entscheiden? Der Sänger vom letzten Montag war jedenfalls nicht so gut (auf gut deutsch: Scheisse.).<br />Der Pit war soweit in Ordnung, zuviele Poser, zuviele pseudoaggressive Menschen, die früher zu wenig Liebe bekommen haben: Von &quot;United Family&quot; höchstens ein Hauch in der Luft. <br />Aber was will man schon erwarten. Die Szene ist, in meinen Augen, tot. Oder ich habe sie noch nie gesehen und erliege Wunschvorstellungen. Das jedenfalls war nix, Kollegen. <br />Da wurde getreten was das Zeug hielt, das Beleidigungsrepertoire ausgeführt und mitunter auf am Boden Liegende eingetreten. Ja. Dumm. <br />Was solls.<br /><br />Um 18:30 nun endlich: Ignite! Wohoo! Mein lange erwartetes Wiedersehen mit den Jungs konnte endlich stattfinden. Auf der Persistence-Tour vergangenen Jahres waren sie schon das Highlight, diesmal sollten (und wollten!) sie es noch einigen mehr zeigen: Von Klassikern wie <a title="Ignite &ndash; Run" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Ignite/_/Run" class="bbcode_track">Run</a>, Beinahe-Klassikern wie <a title="Ignite &ndash; Bleeding" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Ignite/_/Bleeding" class="bbcode_track">Bleeding</a> und All-Time-Favourites wie <a title="Ignite &ndash; Sunday Bloody Sunday" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Ignite/_/Sunday+Bloody+Sunday" class="bbcode_track">Sunday Bloody Sunday</a> war nun wirklich für jeden was dabei. Super! Super! Super! <br />Wer das nicht mag, hat keinen Geschmack, period. ;)<br /><br />Danach war ich leider so sehr kaputt, dass ich mir die <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Two+Gallants" class="bbcode_artist">Two Gallants</a> und <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/The+Lemonheads" class="bbcode_artist">The Lemonheads</a> einfach mal dreist gespart habe, sollen jedoch auch ausgesprochen gut gewesen sein! <br /><br />Mein Resumée: <br />Ein ausgerenkter Zeh (-&gt; Krankenhaus, olé), viele blaue Flecke, eine Riesenmenge Spaß, super Security (naja, meistens! (; ) und tolle Bands.<br />Einzige Kritikpunkte wären die doch sehr schleppend agierenden Trinkstände und (leider!) zu leiser Ton anzuführen. Letztes Jahr wars doch auch sehr viel lauter! <br />Aber sonst: Gerne wieder, selbst mit einem zehn Mal schlechteren Line-Up würde ich noch kommen, alleine der Stimmung wegen.<br />Top!<br /><br />Videos (nicht von mir, aber schön anzusehen!):<br /><br />Ignite - Sunday Bloody Sunday:<br /><object width="425" height="350">                        <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xyRTqkK0y9c"></param>                        <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>                        <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xyRTqkK0y9c" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>                    </object><br /><br />Das obligatorische &quot;Ultra-Porno-Krass-MOSH-Video-Br00tal-Brootal!&quot;:<br /><object width="425" height="350">                        <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/U3vtzxq9_FQ"></param>                        <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>                        <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/U3vtzxq9_FQ" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>                    </object><br /><br />Lemonheads:<br /><object width="425" height="350">                        <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5A57DO8IDRU"></param>                        <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>                        <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5A57DO8IDRU" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>                    </object></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div class="bbcode"><a href="http://www.last.fm/event/458451+Machinemade+God+at+Cafe+Nova+on+28+March+2008" class="bbcode_event">Fri 28 Mar – Machinemade God, Deadsoil, Never Again, The Autumn's Regret, Left The Crowd</a><br /><br />Das war's mal wieder. Café Nova zum x-ten Mal. Aber auch wieder super, sehr super.<br />Ich bin um 17:30 angekommen um mich mit Freunden zu treffen und mich erschlug die wartende Menge schon förmlich. Zum Glück hatten wir vorbestellt! <br />Kurz darauf durften die Vorbesteller bereits hinein, während die anderen noch im Regen warten mussten (Ha!).<br />Schnell Eintrittsgeld bezahlt und Merch angesehen, <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban" class="bbcode_artist">Caliban</a> haben unter ihrem alten Namen <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Never+Again" class="bbcode_artist">Never Again</a> auf 50 Stück limitierte Shirts verkauft (besitze jetzt die Nr. 48..).<br /><br />Den Rest eben schnell angesehen, aber nichts Gutes sonst gefunden, also gings in den Hauptraum, wo wir noch kurz warten mussten bis <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Beast+War+Returns" class="bbcode_artist">Beast War Returns</a> als Opener spielten. <br />Solide Show, Gesang top, Pigsqueals ausbaufähig ;) ;) <br />Soviel wie der Bassist hin- und hergerannt ist, man man, die hätten auch Kilometergeld verlangen können! Hat mir aber sehr gut gefallen, die Stimmung war noch eher ruhig, zwei Mosher, einige &quot;Kopfnicker&quot;.<br />Ich frag mich immer noch, warum mich der Sänger während eines Liedes angesprochen hat und danach total ausgerastet ist, haha. <br /><br />Nach ca. 30 Minuten gab's eine kurze Pause und es wurde für <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Left+The+Crowd" class="bbcode_artist">Left The Crowd</a> umgebaut. <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Left+The+Crowd" class="bbcode_artist">Left The Crowd</a> habe ich vorher schon öfter gesehen (der Drummer ist der Bruder vom Freund meiner Cousine, oh gott :&gt;) und haben mir auch gut gefallen. Waren an dem Abend ein wenig das Kontrastprogramm, weniger Shouts, mehr Melodie, und vor allem - Deutsch gesungen!<br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Left+The+Crowd" class="bbcode_artist">Left The Crowd</a> haben auch ca 30 Minuten gespielt, wieder kurze Pause, und wieder Umbau für <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/The+Autumn%27s+Regret" class="bbcode_artist">The Autumn's Regret</a>.<br />TA'sR wollte ich vorher schon mal sehen, habe aber leider noch die Zeit dafür gefunden und ich war nun positiv überrascht. <br />Die Stimmung fand einen ersten Höhepunkt, super Klang und tolle Show. Gut!<br /><br />Nach <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/The+Autumn%27s+Regret" class="bbcode_artist">The Autumn's Regret</a> gab es, wiiieder mal eine Umbaupause, die wir auch endlich nutzen, um uns draussen von dem ganzen scheiss Rauch zu entspannen, haha. Es regnete, schöne Abkühlung!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Deadsoil" class="bbcode_artist">Deadsoil</a> waren, genau wie beim Essen Original im August letzten Jahres, super drauf. Ein neues, noch härteres Album wurde angekündigt und auch einige ältere Lieder gespielt. Stimmung war teilweise gut, aber auch oft genug eher schleppend, keiner traute sich wirklich irgendwas zu starten. Nach drei Circle Pits und ca. 40 minütiger Spielzeit haben wir uns wieder nach draussen verzogen um uns Pizza zu holen, war auch irgendwie nötig, wenn man den halben Tag nichts isst.<br /><br />Um 21:30 waren wir wieder fast pünktlich zu <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Machinemade+God" class="bbcode_artist">Machinemade God</a> zurück. <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Machinemade+God" class="bbcode_artist">Machinemade God</a>! In so einer Location! Zu dem Preis! Sowas hat definitiv nicht alle Tage. <br />Hat mir und auch vielen anderen gut gefallen. Es wurde immer mehr getanzt.<br />Zwischendurch hätte ich mir aber auch selbst ein' auf'n Kopp hauen können - ich dachte die ganze Zeit darüber nach, <em>warum</em> <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Machinemade+God" class="bbcode_artist">Machinemade God</a> nur wie <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Butterfly+Coma" class="bbcode_artist">Butterfly Coma</a> klingen... bis mir auffiel das Sky Hoff bei beiden der Gitarrist ist. Möööh.. doof! :D<br /><br />Ca. um 22:30 enterten <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Never+Again" class="bbcode_artist">Never Again</a> die Bühne - mit Perücken ausstaffiert, tolle Idee ;) <br />Nach dem Intro von A Small Boy and a Grey Heaven ging es auch endlich mit <a title="Caliban &ndash; Arena of concilement" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/_/Arena+of+concilement" class="bbcode_track">Arena of concilement</a> los. <br />Es wurden ausschliesslich ältere Sachen von <a title="Caliban - A Small Boy And A Grey Heaven" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/A+Small+Boy+And+A+Grey+Heaven" class="bbcode_album">A Small Boy And A Grey Heaven</a> und <a title="Caliban - Vent" href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban/Vent" class="bbcode_album">Vent</a> (und der Demo?!) gespielt, ganz zum Schluss durfte sich das Publikum noch zwei neuere Lieder wünschen (Forsaken Horizon war dabei).<br /><br />Die Stimmung war famos, es wurde gemosht, mitgeschrien und soweit ich das beurteilen konnte hatte jeder Spaß.<br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban" class="bbcode_artist">Caliban</a> sind ja nicht nur wegen ihrem Aussehen eine der besten Metalcore-Bands der Welt ;)<br />Nach einer sehr geilen Wall of Death gab es bei (Jaa? Wer weiss den Liednamen noch? Ich hab den vergessen oh gott, Comment bitte!) eine geile Aktion *hust*: Alle sollten sich beim Breakdown auf den Sänger schmeissen. Diesem Aufruf folgten einige, zuerst war ich noch recht weit oben, doch beim zweiten Mal gaaanz unten, autsch, haha. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban" class="bbcode_artist">Caliban</a> haben einen super Auftritt hingelegt, den ich nicht so schnell vergessen werde: Wer kann schon von sich sagen einen Secret Gig von <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban" class="bbcode_artist">Caliban</a> mit 160 Leuten gesehen zu haben? <br /><br />Deshalb, gerne wieder Café Nova, gerne wieder <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Caliban" class="bbcode_artist">Caliban</a> und <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Beast+War+Returns" class="bbcode_artist">Beast War Returns</a>, gerne wieder so geile Action. <br />Man sieht sich. <br /><br />Danke für's lesen.<br />------------------------<em>sXe.</em></div>]]></description>
