This is somewhat of an aberration for Agalloch, since it almost approaches full on black metal at times. Shame Haughm's dickishness caused the band to implode.

*Tranquillity, but yeah, they're great live, too. Check out The Halo Effect, too, if you haven't.

A little different, but drum appreciation:

Been on a trad doom kick. This guitar tone is so good.

7:35 is a butt chug highlight with a very decent solo.

Actually, I find it hard to enjoy metal. I'm just never in the mood for it.

Not metal from last night bump.

Dumb note: that dude in the battle jacket has been on the rail of literally every major concert i've gone to in the last 2 years, it's getting creepy.

Going to see Heathen Tuesday, should be fun.

Checked this one out because of the cover, stayed for the sick cosmic death

intro is too long but it rips otherwise

Wrote this writeup in /r/metal, figured i'd share it here too.

Show Report: Heathen/Arrival of Autumn/Primal Enemy @ X-Ray Arcade.

First show at this venue since they finished rebuilding the bar, the Arcade part of the bar is working again, lost all my quarters within 10 minutes, 10/10 would recommend.

***Primal Enemy***

Local band i'd never heard of before tonight, solid 30 minute set of what might be described as Pizza Thrash, their album cover is literally them coming out of a Sewer grate.

***Arrival of Autumn***
Video: https://i.imgur.com/VP5rxNW.mp4

Straight up Metalcore, not my thing at all and not sure why they're on tour with an old school Bay area thrash band, probably one of the loudest bands i've seen in that venue, to the point where i had to make sure my earplugs hadn't fallen out, crowd just kind of looked confused and stayed near the back of the bar despite the singer trying his best to encourage the crowd to move up and move around, ok set, not my thing.

***Heathen***
Video: https://i.imgur.com/SXyA48J.mp4

David White is 60 years old and still sounds better than a lot of frontmen i've seen recently that are 1/3rd his age, rest of the band was amazing as well, not really much explanation needed, it's Heathen, it's thrash, it's good.

***The Crowd***

Possibly the worst crowd i've seen at a metal show, for both openers the majority of the crowd stayed a good 40 feet from the stage, back by the bar, a few good souls tried to rile them up and start a pit, but it ended up just looking sad, and during the Heathen set the drummer from Primal Enemy was apologizing for his friend bumping into an annoyed front row, this show deserved a better crowd than it ended up getting.

***Final Thoughts***

This show needed another band more similar in style to Heathen and Primal Enemy, sending out a full on metalcore band on tour with a thrash band was a mistake, and it kinda brought the vibe down, Arrival of Autumn is solid, but it would be like , say, having Carcass open for Ghost, just a clash of styles and fanbases.

But Heathen was well worth the $15 i paid for admission, and supporting local venues is always worth it.
