Carcass

Must say this venue had near perfect sound so all the bands where heard in full clarity. The opening band had mic issues but where awesome. Carcass stole the show playing songs from every album bill steers solos are top notch !!!! Death metal the way it should be !! Brutal. ...God bless

The Venue was great. The bands were great. CARCASS was really GREAT!!!!!

Noisem - Showed up late and unfortunately missed them. Gorguts I thought were just terrible. I haven't listened to them in several years, but what I heard was not what I enjoyed. The Black Dahlia was awesome. The PA system I thought was breaking up a bit when they were playing. Outside of that though they were phenomenal. Carcass - these guys are legends. They didn't seem to have as much issues with the PA. Bill Steer was humorous with his very dry humor. They were fantastic.

I am an older fan of extreme metal, in the scene for over 25 years. It is uncommon for me to make it to shows anymore, too many responsibilities and too high ticket prices! I have always wanted to see Carcass live and when I saw confirmed dates for the tour, I knew nothing would stop me and my good buddies from attending. The opening band, Noisem, were ok. Good to see the youth still carrying the flag of heaviness. The second band, Gorguts, are incredible! I have seen them live several times previously and they are absolutely spellbinding live, especially when playing their new material! The Black Dahlia Murder were very good live. They did a great job stirring up the kids in the crowd. Fun to watch. Honestly, I wasn't sure how well Carcass would be live, considering only half the original lineup is intact. They quickly put my mind at ease, blasting out an excellent mix of new and very old material. Very tight, energetic and sounded really good on almost all of the melodic lead guitar work. They clearly still enjoy playing goregrind for their fans. Special thanks to guitarist Ben Ash, who was suffering from a stomach illness. Ben toughed it out with the spirit of a true metal warrior. Excellent show!!

Carcass was ok, but the other band were terribly boring.

I would definitely go this venue again. It was small and that's a good thing. Good acoustics and it let you be close to the bands.

I've been a huge fan of Carcass since their first album. They put on one hell of a show, covering every album. They went deep in their catalog and didn't stick to just the new stuff. If your a fan of Carcass check them out when they come around.

Absolutely amazing Death Metal show. Didn't know Noizem before but I became a fan right then and there when I saw them. Wasn't too familiar with Gorguts, but they were absolutely amazing and I have been listening to them constantly for the past few days. The Black Dahlia Murder was absolutely brutal live. They sounded great, and they had amazing energy, and the pits were crazy. The headliner, Carcass, blew my mind. Before the show I'd heard a few songs here and there, and I have been jamming to the new album, Surgical Steel, since it came out. I recognized a bunch of what they played, luckily, but I also got to hear some awesome stuff I'd never heard before. I loved their sense of humor when they would joke between songs, and they just sounded so great, and they were full of energy which was great in the mosh pits.

I went primarily because I'm a fan of Gorguts, who were fantastic (although both I and the band wished their set was longer). In the weeks leading up to the show, I familiarized myself more with Carcass, and they really grew on me. Their songs are incredible live; they execute with absolutely brutal precision. This will no doubt be the heaviest show I see all year, and I see lots of metal shows. Black Dahlia Murder was also excellent; they have great energy and you can tell they enjoy the hell out of being on stage. I did not get there in time to see Noisem or Derketa. Bottom line: if you even remotely like metal, go to this show. You won't regret it.

All the bands rocked the house! It was incredible to see some oldies & TBDM is always the best!

simply amazing. been waiting to see Carcass since I was 12 years old. Flash forward to my 34th birthday, and I got my wish. even though Ken Owen was absent, the core group of Walker/Steer was there. I had a feeling they would open with "Buried Dreams"....sure enough they did. I think that has one of the most brilliant openings of any melodeath song. I am so glad I got to see the boys from Liverpool!

I never have considered myself a brutal metal fan! I love Carcass, Death (RIP Chuck), Cynic, and Shadows Fall. I never like the bands that Carcass usually tours with though. I have seen Gorguts and The Black Dalhia Murder before and I still think they are terrible. Noisem and Murmur were pretty terrible too. That is the problem with most bands in the extreme genre. They lack the talent of a band like Carcass and just wind up making noise. The metal kids who care about brutality never seem to mind though. They enjoyed themselves.

Carcass was excellent and HOB is the best venue in the city

The local band (Murmur) was horrible...Noisem was ok but they're sound was horrible. Now GORGUTS...TBDM....& CARCASS f'n killed it. if you want some serious metal to sheer off your skull.....This is the goods!!!!!!!

CARCASS had to be the heaviest band I've ever seen live, and it was a killer show!! The Black Dahlia Murder crushed their set as usual as well!! Didn't really know what to expect from Carcass since I had only briefly started listening to them a few days before the show, but they did a great job playing songs from several albums throughout their entire discography. They definitely did not disappoint!!! I've seen The Black Dahlia Murder numerous times & as stated above their set was epic!! I missed the other opening acts.

Great show, heavy and intense from beginning to end. These are hadpicked bands put together that represent the intense metal genre. I really wanted to see Carcass, one of my favorite bands that found a way to bring melody and enrich the intense metal scene. Waited a long time to see them and it was worth while and they do play all their classics from previous albums! Black Dahlia really rock the place and connect with the audience, I really enjoyed their set, as well as all other bands. .

Wouldn't have been so bad but black dahlia was done at 8:30. This venue usually begins the headliner around 10. The band before the headliner started before 8. Living an hour away most atl people can't get downtown by six on a weekday. For the insanely hight price, carcass was not tight at all. Thats all we saw for $35 each getting there at 8:30. Poorly executed.

Carcass absolutely ripped! It's like haven't missed a beat over all those years. I know they have been performing on and off since about 2008, but it is like they never stopped. They played songs from their entire catalog with all the freshness and ferocity of bands half their age. It was an epic evening.
