Live Evil Festival 2011 - London - Fenriz Curated

[badcarburetor]

Since my friend flaked on me for MDF I'm a washout for this year. I'd be much more bummed, but I've already purchased tickets to go to the second Fenriz curated Live Evil Festival in London in October. I have no idea who is playing, but tickets were on sale and, based on last year's siiiiiiiick line-up, I trust that this one will be quality.

Has anyone seen any info on the Live Evil Festival online? I thought for sure that I'd find something on NWN!, but no dice. The official page only states that there will be a 2011 show and links to purchase tickets.

I don't know half those bands but it looks interesting.

Yeah, that's the line-up from last year. I dig a lot of those bands. Hell, I'd be stoked if they just did the same line-up again, but I'm sure that would never happen. Generally I'm down with pretty much anything Fenriz endorses, so I'm pretty sure that I'll be happy without whatever is on the bill. How bad can it be to see a bunch of metal in London?

I truly wish we were going to be in London at the same time. But I'm not giving up my July 4th visit -- I'm making all those fuckers buy me beers.

AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

There's pretty good I_LOVE_ZUCKERPENIS page for the fest. Seems to have the most current info out there.

Fuck the beers, make 'em buy you TEA.

The 2011 line-up has been revealed. I'm psyched!

There's a interview with one of the dudes putting on here:

Here's the breakdown on the line-up:

LIVE EVIL 2011 Line-up:
Saturday
PAGAN ALTAR “Doomed NWOBHM legends who still sound as good as they did in ’82. They should have their full robed-up evil show from back in the day too.â€Â￾

IN SOLITUDE “The very first ever band of the week. Proper heavy metal with an occult vibe and a super high energy live show. This will be their UK debut.â€Â￾

JAGUAR “One of the originators of the NWOBHM sound. They were always one of the rawest bands and suit Live Evil perfectly a real party vibe live too.â€Â￾

EM RUINAS “Brazilian black thrash maniax. Should be one of the stand-out crazy headbanging sets.â€Â￾

RAVENS CREED “Brutal punked-up death from some legendary UK players… An unrelenting barrage! Now with a great new vocalist.â€Â￾

MAIM “One of the very best in the recent old sounding death metal bands. Fantastic sound and songs. They share a member with Morbus Chron.â€Â￾

WITCHGRAVE “A brilliant Swedish act that sound like Venom with a little more of the catchier side of NWOBHM thrown in. Awesome live and share members with Antichrist.â€Â￾

AGE OF TAURUS “One of the best British bands for years. A doomed sound that’s not limited by slowness as true doom shouldn’t. Very heavy live too.â€Â￾

Sunday
AURA NOIR “In the early ‘90s they were playing thrash with a black edge when few people cared. Now they are rightly regarded as pioneers and very popular. With their best line-up and slaying venues. First ever UK show!â€Â￾

ELIXIR “Late period NWOBHM with an epic edge. Elixir are great live, still, they have a real chunky feel and some classic songs.â€Â￾

ANTICHRIST “One of the best live acts in the world currently. Antichrist are one of the leaders in the scandi-thrash wave and one of our genuine highlights.â€Â￾

CRUEL FORCE “A very popular German black thrash band with killer songs. The young guys really know how to put a show on too.â€Â￾

MORBUS CHRON “One of the best death metal bands for years. Think Nihilist (pre-Entombed) and Autopsy, super tasteful and raw riffing.

BUNKER 66 “Italian metal that defies easy categorisation. It’s simply no bullshit, heavy and addictive. Maybe they are slightly crusty thrash in the Slaughter (Canada) vein.â€Â￾

BLACK MAGIC “Another highlight and a rare show from the Deathhammer guys’ other band. A little like Witchgrave in that they are a kind of raw, slightly blackened take on the early metal or NWOBHM sound.â€Â￾

REVENGE “Tasty established Greece black thrash. These bastards will be yet another brutal highlight on Sunday.â€Â￾

[Diana]

You already know I'm mad sick fucking jealous. So there's that.

[ScreamBloodyGore]

The Raven's Creed songs I listened to had the worst vocals I've ever heard. The new guy has some very small and ugly shoes to fill, gurl.

[SlashAndThrash]

Ryan you are now Chenriz

[ScreamBloodyGore]

Now that is a thing I can do things with.

Chenriz! Ha, ha, ha!.



This fest does sound rad. Looking forward to hearing all about it.

[Pat]

Nothing against the fest itself, but I really don't get all the Fenriz worship. It seems like his opinion can make or break a metal band these days which to me is retarded. Sure I like Darkthrone, but why do people give such a shit about his opinion?

His taste often lines up with mine and I like a high percentage of the shit he hypes. So, for me, shit that makes Band of the Week is usually worth giving a shot. I guess other people tend to feel the same way.

[Generubin]

MORBUS CHRON is the badass and I'm with Pat. Although I feel the same way about Varg Vikeness.
