To see past the secure foundations of convention and into an entirely new state of being demands the strength, conviction and true sense of purpose possessed only by a chosen few. They are the innovators, the leaders, the ones who transcend perceived limitations.
MORBID ANGEL have consistently succeeded in shattering the musical, spiritual and ideological boundaries of extreme music while unquestionably retaining their core element of brutal and inspirational excellence. MORBID ANGEL finally return to Australian after 13 years to deliver us their excellence in the extreme.
^This was the quote that greeted me when I went to look at the gig details on the Metro Theatre website...
And guess what?!
IM GOING TO SEE MORBID ANGEL!!! OMFG!
*does happy dance*
*remembers she is meant to be a cool metal chickie*
*seriptitiously turns a boogie into headbanging and throws around the horns*
wow, that was a quick save!
Okay, I am calm again... So, Morbid Angel is one of my favourite bands. It makes it into the top three. They are an extremely influential band that has been around for 25 years. They are a stand up Death Metal band, and one which helped define the genre. Their music is completely arse kicking, they are completely brutal, and god, its just a wall of growl! I love it! the guitar riffs, the drumming, the vocals... it just IS! They formed in 1984 (when i was a baby LOL) in Tampa, Florida, and, quoting Last.FM were "crucial in the development of the death metal genre and its standards."
