ok ADTR's music is pretty fucking bad but that description of of the live show, the ball especially, would actually make me consider giving them a shot live
I said the exact same thing in my review... <_> And yes, best live show I've ever seen, they put 110% into it, not only their performance, but just everything, the crowd interaction, stage presence, stage set-up, etc.
Bought some weed today right, went to the Skeletonwitch show and hot boxed it for awhile... Head in and some local is playing. Next band was viking metalish band named Hammer Horde from right here in Toledo, Ohio...strange huh? They actually kicked ass and had a good time. Next band...not sure of their name, I'll have to look it up. They were more of a hardcore band, and kicked ass. Thhen to my confusion, Skeletonwitch came up next. I thought it was their headlining tour, but it apparently isn't. Either way they played a full set, and even playing a new song which kicked ass. I think it had "Resurrection" in it. It was funny because Chance said "I know it hasn't even been awhile since we played here" and I shout "November!" and he says "This man's got it" and say's, but we got someting new to play, so here's to this guy" and I was like aw shit this songs to me haha. Only complaints was that they didn't play longer...or give out setlists which were on the backs of posters...which weren't available at the show. I bought another Skeletonwitch tour shirt, which I was surprised they had. Then came up 3 Inches of Blood. They were really good, and I would probably say they were great if I knew any more songs than Goat Riders Horde and Deadly Sinners.

Went to day 2 of the NEMHF in Worcester at The Palladium yesterday. It was a long day, but there were a ton of awesome bands. Anyways, on to the review.
I got there a little after 12:30 and went upstairs to catch the band King Conquer. I've never heard of them, and they were absolute terrible wigger slam. No thanks. 2/10.
After them I went downstairs where a Worcester local band called Years Since the Storm was playing. They were just as bad as King Conquer, just bland, generic, irritating bree-bree deathcore. 2/10.
Next I watched Fit For an Autopsy on the main stage. Not too bad, but they didn't stand out as anything special to me. 5/10.
Upstairs at 1:30 was the first good band of the day, a hardcore band from New York called Born Low. I had heard of them before but never gave them a listen and they were really good, sounded very tight live. I'll definitely be checking them out soon. 7/10.
I stayed upstairs to watch The Greenery, and they were pretty good. I'd never listened to them before, but they were very energetic, and the set was fun. 7/10.
I went downstairs after The Greenery where The World We Knew should have been playing, but the main stage was a little bit behind schedule, so the atrocity that is Murder Death Kill was starting. I can't believe I actually watched their whole set, they were the definition of horrible bro wigger slam, just absolutely terrible. Worst band of the day, and one of the worst bands I've ever seen live. 0/10.
The World We Knew was next on the main stage and they were very fun. Short set, but it was my third time seeing them and they didn't disappoint. Not many people were watching them but those who were watching were into them. 8/10.
Grand Destroyer New Song Hellbound The Write Off To the Wolves
After TWWK I went upstairs where The Carrier was playing. This was my third time seeing them, and they are always decent live. The crowd was very much into them, lots of moshing and pileups. 7/10.
Partial Set/No Order:
Blind to What is Right No. 51 Panicstricken Alcatraz
Up next on the upstairs stage was Death Ray Vision, with Brian Fair from Shadows Fall on vocals and some ex-members of Overcast on the instruments. They were cool, but the crowd wasn't really into them. The best way to describe their music in my opinion is hardcore with a rock influence. Not bad. 7/10.
After Death Ray Vision I left to get some food and relax, so I missed a good amount of bands. The next band I watched was at 5:30, which was Trapped Under Ice. They were ridiculous, my second favorite set of the night, and my second time seeing them.. The upstairs room was about 200 people over capacity, it was packed with no breathing room. Everyone was into it, with tons of pileups, stage diving, and moshing. 9/10.
Believe Soul Vice Half a Person See God Skeleton Heads TUI Outcast Street Lights Stay Cold
I had to leave the room to get a breath of fresh air before Terror, but it was a bad choice on my part. They stopped letting people in to see Terror because there were 800 people cramped in a 500 person-capacity room. I was mad at myself for leaving as I really wanted to see Terror. I'm sure their set was ridiculous.
After Terror, the upstairs room was done for the day, and for the rest of the night the bands would be on the main stage. I didn't watch Your Demise or Close Your Eyes as I have absolutely no interest in either of those bands.
At 7:20, Stick to Your Guns started and they were a ton of fun. This was my first time seeing them, and I wasn't disappointed. Crowd was really into it, and they played a good 30 minute set. 7.5/10.
Set is complete but possibly a little bit out of order towards the middle.
Faith in the Untamed Where the Sun Never Sleeps Enough is Enough Part of Me Amber We're What Separates the Heart From the Heartless Some Kind of Hope Impact This is More
After STYG was Winds of Plague, who I was pretty pumped for. Third time seeing them, and they were good once again. Not as good as the first two times I saw them as the crowd wasn't too into them (everyone was waiting for Blood For Blood), but it was still a fun set. 7.5/10.
Full set in order:
The Impaler One Body Too Many Drop the Match Decimate the Weak Angels of Debauchery Refined In the Fire Reloaded
Hardcore legends Blood For Blood were up next, and they were who everyone was there for. It was there first show in Massachusetts in a pretty long time, and their set was very much anticipated by the hardcore community here in MA. I don't listen to the band myself, but the show wasn't too bad coming from a non-fan. People were way into them as expected, but I took it easy during their set. 7/10.
This set is in order, I found a picture of it online:
Mother Dear Ain't Like You Dead End Street Eulogy For a Dream Tear Out My Eyes Revenge on Society Some Kind of Hate All Fucked Up Enemy Soulless Paper Gangster Piss Bitch Called Hope Wasted Youth Crew Going Down the Bar
Up next was the reason why I came, the reason why I paid 40 dollars for a ticket; Bury Your Dead with Mat Bruso, his first show with the band in 4 and a half years. The set was ridiculous and the crowd was awesome the whole set. I was going nuts, this was one of the best sets I've ever been a part of. The new drummer was a little bit sloppy, but I didn't care. Mat was on top of his game all night and the set was ridiculous. I didn't stay for Biohazard because of how late it was after Bury Your Dead, but I left extremely happy and satisfied. 10/10.
Full set, might be a little bit out of order in the middle.
