Morbid Angel

could be one of the loudest concerts that i've ever been to. always good to see bands that regular rock fans may not get the chance or won't take the chance to see live.

Great show with short intermission between the bands. Only complaint, no seating at this venue. Standing for 12 hours straight kind of sucks. But, all in all it was a good show.

Definitely worth the price. Numerous bands to enjoy--from classic to new ones. To top it off, in the end Morbid Angel delivered an amazing, brutal show. I would definitely do it all over!

Show was EXCELLENT. The local bands in Atlanta were great, and Morbid Angel sounded great. Great respect to Dave Vincent for playing later era songs that he didn't write, and to the whole band in general for playing tight. Meeting Trey after the show was a true highlight. Mor-Bid! Mor-bid! Mor-Bid!!!

no words to explain, morbid angel simply rocks, bring them back soon again!!!

Vadimvon, the first band, did not have a drummer. They played with a drum track, much to my surprise. Their style reminds me of Amon Amarth, with a bit of Dissection and Sodom thrown in there. They ran into problems with their track at the end of their set, and had to end early. Despite not having a drummer and being forced to end their set one song short, Vadimvon was memorable. Grave took to the stage afterwards, boasting a perfect mix. Their punishing set started several mosh pits, and I couldn't believe how clearly their vocals came through the PA. A powerful set, greatly enjoyed. Dark Funeral took the stage with lights still on them. This was a rather odd choice by the venue. Black metal is meant to be atmospheric, so why blare white light on Dark Funeral the whole time? Despite this annoyance, Dark Funeral dominated their 10 or so song set. The venue erupted during "The End of Human Race", with a gigantic, violent pit, crowd surfing, and beer projectiles. Their mix was fantastic, their playing was flawless, and Nachtgarm was menacing in his delivery. These men are true masters of their craft. I am still in awe of their power. Morbid Angel was, in a word, fantastic. Their set was long, relying mostly on material from Altars of Madness and Covenant (a wise choice). Their mix was perfection - they sounded exactly as they did on Covenant. All members were flawless in their playing. Vincent was a showman, as he always is. Tim's drumming was phenomenal, hardly even looking at his kit half the time. Thor and Trey both shredded, trading off solos and riffs with expert precision. The crowd was literally in the palm of their hand. Recommended with the highest regard.

Morbid Angel killed at BB King's. Don't let the controversy about their latest CD make you doubt the power of MA live. Even without Pete Sandoval they have no competition. Still the originators with many imitators. Great set list loaded with classics. Grave were good they have that oldschool Entombed vibe. Dark Funeral are not a favorite of mine but their drummer was pretty amazing.

Morbid's only US stop kicked some serious ass. I rarely see a band that keeps a whole room thrashing for hours on end, and Morbid Angel delivered. Like the Argentinian guys in the front row, I would have crossed a continent to see these guys perform. Sound was great, the setlist had all the classics, including an extended 'Chapel of Ghouls' with a dimension-warping solo courtesy of Trey. David Vinent opened the songs with the typical demonic intro, and even got some laughs out of the crowd before smashing them with the next work. I have always wondered what separates the great bands from lesser acts: what keeps generations of fans coming again and again to see bands from whose shows they will likely walk away bruised and bleeding. It has no name, but I saw it that night. Morbid Angel opened a ragged hole in our callused hide and shone a light into the depths of our souls: a painful elevation.
