There's a good Xmas gift.
Got to see Obituary with Abbath last year. Epic show.
Being in Florida, did you ever get to see Death? Bummed that I wasn't really into their music back then.

Is anyone else going to Decibel's Metal & Beer Fest in Philly on April 3 and 4?  It features Converge, Napalm Death, and Pig Destroyer all doing special sets in which they play one (2 in the case of NP) of their albums front to back.  The festival also includes 11 other metal bands over the 2 days.  There will also be craft breweries and a craft meadery for folks to enjoy.  I already have my tickets.  See more info at the link below.

Elder is one of my favorite bands these days.  Their new album comes out in April and they are touring in May.  I bought a ticket to the tour opener in Brooklyn on May 6.  More info at the link below.

That looks fun as hell.  I'd go just for Converge.  If they did the Jane Doe album I would be really happy.

Just read that they are doing Jane Doe!  Will see if I can make this!

Can't do it this time, but I need to make it to this one day. My buddy goes every year. Would have loved to have been there when Panopticon played.

Funny, I was just listening to Elder the other day and wondering why I don't listen to them more. They seem like a good band to see live.

Thanks! I’d never heard Elder before, they are awesome! Love their early stuff. I’m on my second go of Dead Roots Stirring 🤘

Hey Metalheads check out Third Chamber, a new band from Calgary. They have a 5 song EP out called Harvesting our Decay (it's on Spotify). Metal with hardcore undertones. Dig it.

Cool. No vinyl though.

This new album by Skeleton is flying under the radar. Good stuff with a lot going on. Maybe black death?

No not yet. Hopefully they come out with a full length this year. I ordered the tape cause I’m a music nerd and my garage is analog only.

Death metal classic!

It's been a few years since anyone posted in this thread, so this may be completely dormant. But just in case, I'm going to all 9 dates on the PJ tour, but I'm hoping to catch a metal show if I can in any city. I know of Reggie's in Chicago. I've seen Demilich while I was there last year for a Salesforce Conference, and Batushka and The Chasm while I was in town for PJ in 2018 (I couldn't have asked for better timing on that one!).  Anyone know where to catch underground metal in Ft. Worth, Indianapolis, St. Paul or Austin? 

BTW, I just saw Carcass last night in Berkeley. They are one of my favorite bands to watch live. 

lexicondevil

Wanted to hit up the Carcass show. Did you get to see Creeping Death? I'm sure that Municipal Waste killed it.

The show was the same day as the NBA finals, so my bf and I showed up in the middle of Municipal Waste. They always put on a fun show. Creeping Death is playing in San Francisco in June, so I'll see them then.

Very cool. I am seeing Blackbraid in June. They're opening up for Cattle Decap and Dark Funeral. Don't care much about those two, so early show and then off to bars!

Marieow

Ah, man I really wanted to see Blackbraid, especially since the tour poster is killer. As a rule, I don't buy tour posters unless I go to the show. I feel similarly indifferent about Cattle Decapitation and Dark Funeral. I can't go to that show because I'll be in Puerto Vallarta. 

What other shows do you got lined up? So many great bands are touring right now. 

This is what I have so far. I'm really hoping to catch some metal bands when I'm going around the midwest for PJ.

Wow! You are going to quite a ton of shows. I've been hesitant to buy tickets, as I've found myself getting more flaky as years go by. Obituary with Blood Incantation will be great. Will try to keep that on my radar. WITTR are also great live. I thought I saw something about Hulder playing soon. Saw her at Golden Bull last time and it was awesome. Slege opened up and I was pleasantly surprised by them. We seem to have similar tastes in music. Let's keep in touch. My wife and I occasionally do make it to shows! Going to the Power Trip Fest in October.

lexicondevil

Scary Halloween metal? Came across The Lion's Daughter. They remind me of a more proggy horror version of Mastodon. Lots of different sounds going on if you listen through the whole album. 

Warning: Cover art is NSFW and is awesome.

Thanks to @Attaway77 been into Crypta.
That led to checking out former band Nervosa.
Only been watching live shows but Holy heck. Where have I been the last how many years. 
Nice to revisit my thrash metal roots. So cool to see this music alive today.

That's funny. My wife was playing me Nervosa last week. Good stuff.

If you like thrash and hardcore listen to Power Trip.

Nice. Never heard them. Thx

Loujoe

Had a Possessed lp seven churches and traded it in. Wish I kept it to crank when the rare moment strikes. Hope it landed into someone's satanic hands to spin more often than me.
Limited space for records...naaaaaaaaahh
Whatever!

^localish band I saw open for nuclear assault 1980something at 'the streets' in New Rochelle NY if my memory is correct.
Still kicking butt, 2017 anyway. Damn!!

lexicondevil

Nice. A lot of the older bands are still kicking ass. Forbidden recently started things up again. Need to see them live.
