Episode 104: Powerwolf

Thursday Oct 03, 2024

Thursday Oct 03, 2024

Power metal is not always our go to subgenres of metal. However, the shows can be an absolute blast, and that's just what we got when we saw Powerwolf for the first time. It was part of their second US tour, with support from Unleash The Archers. The Riviera Theater was packed with ravenous fans who let their voices be heard all night long. It was the first time Powerwolf played Chicago, and given how amazing the set and crowd was, we for sure hope it is not their last.

When Slipknot announced the return of Knotfest Iowa we were a bit weary to say the least, after the shit show that was Linefest Iowa 2021. Also, we already had tickets to see Slayer at Riot Fest. That, though, turned out to be a cluster too. So the first opportunity we had, we got a refund for our Riot Fest tickets and picked up some for Knotfest. It had to be better this time around, right? After all, they had free refillable water stands this time.

As part of their M72 tour, Metallica set out to takeover each city they stopped at. An ever expanding concept that started as part of their S&M2/40th Anniversary shows. Each takeover allowed for unique experiences where fans could dive not only into the vast history of Metallica, but also the city they were in. One such experience was a Metallica tribute concert. The show we saw was headlined by Damage, Inc. and had support from Motorbreath. There was also a very special guest!  Join us and find out who joined them on stage.

Episode 101: Ashes of Leviathan

Thursday Sep 12, 2024

Thursday Sep 12, 2024

On this episode we are heading home after a quick trip to Omaha. There, we caught the last show of Lamb of god and Mastodon’s co-headlining tour, Ashes of Leviathan. Where they played Ashes of the Wake and Leviathan in their entirety. To our surprise, this was not only the last show of the tour, but also the exact day both corner stone albums were released, 20 years prior. Supporting this amazing celebration we saw Kerry King and Malevolence. 

Episode 100: M72 Madrid

Thursday Sep 05, 2024

Thursday Sep 05, 2024

Episode 100! To celebrate we talk about our biggest adventure, in terms of live music. Our recent trip to Madrid to see Metallica on their second European leg of their M72 tour.  While we were definitely there because of Metallica, and the show was so much fun, we found that the people were the key to this trip. Join us while we look back at this amazing experience.

Episode 99: Orbit Culture

Thursday Aug 29, 2024

Thursday Aug 29, 2024

What's better after a long drive home? A concert of course. We just couldn't pass up seeing our first Orbit Culture headlining show. While we have missed past opportunities to see their headlining shows, this one was not going to be one of them. Joining Orbit Culture at Bottom Lounge in Chicago, we got two local bands; Repentance and Burned In Effigy. Both new to us. Well, so we thought. This amazing show was one we easily could have skipped, but we are definitely glad we did not.

Friday Aug 23, 2024

Driving home from Iowa we look back at our show in the capital city, Des Moines. As part of the city's local radio station's 28th birthday (LAZER 103.3), they helped promote Five Finger Death Punch’s summer 2024 U.S. tour. Joining in support was Marilyn Manson, Slaughter To Prevail, and The Funeral Portrait. Before the show we were unaware that it was LAZER’s birthday celebration. Being there for that alone, supporting a radio station that helped influence our musical journey from an early age, would have been enough. But amazing performances from all four bands is a very nice cherry on top.

Almost always we go to shows with someone else. If its just the two of us or with friends. From time to time though, we find ourselves going to a show alone. At first it was a little intimidating, but we quickly learned to love it just like any other live experience. Join us as we look back at some of the shows we have seen solo.

Episode 96: Heavy Temple

Thursday Aug 08, 2024

Thursday Aug 08, 2024

Small club/bar shows have quickly become our favorite type of shows. They're more intimate and less polished. We went to reggies expecting a small show on their biggest stage. However, ended up at the small bar stage for a fun night with Heavy Temple, Valley of The Sun, Vanishing Kids, and Insomniac on their NOTION of heATheNs Tour.

Episode 95: As I Lay Dying

Thursday Aug 01, 2024

Thursday Aug 01, 2024

As I Lay Dying have been around for a bit by now. But for some reason they have never been a band we have listened to all that much. We are not sure why that is. So when they came to Chicago as part of their US Summer ‘24 tour with support from Chelsea Grin and Entheos we decided to check it out. Without question we will definitely be listening to more of all three of these bands after this outstanding show.
