The 19th Roosevelt Hotel metal night is now official for TOMORROW NIGHT, and I apologize for the short notice, lineup news didn't start trickling in until yesterday. Conveniently enough, the three most frequently seen bands from these Thursday nighters are coming together tomorrow in a repeat of the lineup from April 21st! Main eventing tomorrow are local death metal quintet The Bear Hunters, fresh off their new lineup's debut just last Thursday! Look for a moshing good time for this fast rising band, who'll pull no punches with their aggressive and well played brand of metal! Also scheduled for tomorrow night are As It Stands, in their first local concert since returning from their recording sessions in Mississauga! I'm sure they'll be in great spirits to deliver an energetic metalcore assault to their fans tomorrow, as they always do! Opening tomorrow are local grimecore trio Shit Liver, whose unique blend of grindcore and punk will make another deep impression at The Rosie tomorrow night! Same rules apply as ever tomorrow, with a 9:30 PM-ish start time, no cover charge, and a 19+ age limit.For more details, check the above links and Dismembertainment's Facebook page! Sounds like a really solid show, make sure you guys take note and go see the metal tomorrow night at The Rosie! Stay tuned for a preview of this show tomorrow as well!
Next up, how about some Woods of Ypres? Seems like forever ago that we integrated newer Woods of Ypres news in a normal news post, but hey, there was a ton of news from them for a while, and now it's mostly cleared out! Today though, we start with a new Woods of Ypres live video, as filmed at their concert on Monday night in Panama City, Florida! Uploaded by YouTube user frostriuss yesterday, it's of Woods of Ypres playing their song "The Sea Of Immeasurable Loss" at that concert, and the video is below! Decent quality audio, though David Gold comes in really high compared to the rest of the band. The video quality would be good, but the constantly flashing red light is a hinderance. Solid song, I like the doomier version of it they play nowadays, and if only for the audio, it's worth checking out, so give it a look below!
Also on the subject of Woods of Ypres, here's some more assorted stories! Bassist Shane Madden's tour blogs at MetalSucks are continuing, and Parts 2 and 3 are now online! Click here for Part 2, and here for Part 3. His writing style strikes me as that of a book author in many respects, and he shares some good insights on the tour live and varying shows, although he keeps things very vague in respect to the cities he talks about, including referring to some as "City A", "City B", and so forth. Very interesting recollections and thoughts, though hard to describe, take a look at the above links, and stay tuned for Part 4! Also for Woods of Ypres news, a Dutch review of "Woods IV: The Green Album" was posted on MetalFan.nl on April 7th, and you can check it out at this location! It is in Dutch language, so you'll need an online translator to make it out, but the 74/100 score is telling enough that it's positive! The reviewer, named Rik, calls it a "wonderful, versatile album", but says it is disappointing, partly from the depressing and dreary sounding early songs. Give it a look at the above link, but have Google Translate or something on hand. Finally, check out the blog Red Tentacle for a short post in praise of the South Korea-heavy press package David Gold shipped with original "Woods IV" copies, cause it's a nice writeup as well, if kinda late. Stay tuned for more Woods of Ypres news as I hear it!
And finally, here's this week's classic video! Once again tying it in with a performer at an upcoming concert, we're gonna connect this video to Bear Hunters drummer Johnny Belanger! You may remember that he drummed for defunct local hard band Browbeat from late last year until their breakup this spring, and after they broke up, their internet pages were all taken down. Three videos were posted on the now deleted Browbeat MySpace page, all from jam sessions in January/February of this year. Two were of their originals "Days Gone By" and "Movin' On", which both are still online on bassist James White's YouTube channel. One video posted there that wasn't anywhere else was of Browbeat playing "The Sound You Need", which vanished from the internet when Browbeat took down their page. Well, I saved a copy and now it's back online for your viewing pleasure! Featuring James, Johnny, and longtime frontman Dutch Vanderploeg, this is a solid performance of what could be construed as Browbeat's signature song, with a nice hard rock sound and a catchy beat! Great quality video too, I wonder if more videos like this are around somewhere? Good stuff, it's a shame they broke up though. Check out Browbeat playing "The Sound You Need" immediately below, courtesy of our YouTube channel!That's all for today, but stay tuned for weekend concert previews tomorrow! Thanks everyone!
