A Saturday in which the children stayed to see the fights, the gentlemen to see the box, but the demons and lovers of extreme metal gathered at the flying circus for the festival "Night of the living DEATH" that in its third edition it left a unique show full of brutality, aggression and impeccable production.
DEATH ON EARTH
People start arriving at the compound early, despite the fact that in many parts of the city the sky is hit by a rain that makes us think that God wants to take his children away from the sin of brutality and blasphemy. For those who arrive early Entombed AD it shows that the resurgence of its ashes 3 years ago was not in vain; since "Midas in reverse" This corpse returned to life shows that it comes with everything to blow heads. The venue continues to fill as long as topics like Stranger Aeons and "Second to None" rumble, the slam
by this time it is worthy of the so-called "most extreme shows" of the year and that is the first band. Lars-Göran Petrov He comes in a super relaxed and joking atmosphere, and he even smokes a cigarette –which supposed a heart attack for the people of the building who take so much care among their public to prevent smoking in the facilities- and the cadaveric massacre continues its hammering with "Eye Master", "Revel in Flesh" and "Wolverine Blues". In the most humble way and asking for an ovation for the following bands (and one for themselves that resounds throughout the forum) Entombed AD says goodbye with Left Hand Path.
DEATH IN HELL
Yes Entombed AD. It was like an apocalypse on earth for the risen dead, Deicide went further: It was like falling after death to hell itself only to find that you must continue fighting to survive in the jaws of hell with themes like Scars of the Crucifix, "When Satan Rules His World" and "In the Minds of Evil". Deicides (the name given to the murderers of Christ) are shocking and blasphemous. Glen Blenton He does not need makeup or paint or accessories to look like a demon ... His single face seems the living image of a damn antichrist! He exudes evil from every pore and when he frowns his rictus is even more satanic, coupled with the way his bass rumbles on issues like the fast "They Are the Children of the Underworld", "Oblivious to Evil", "Trifixion" and "Mephistopheles".
The flying circus in its darkness and with the red lights lighting the demons originating from Tampa really makes you feel you have fallen into the eternal fires, and at least in the moshpit area there is violence and blood - literally, there were faces already draining the vital liquid- in a way that we rarely have to witness, all with themes like "Serpents of the Light", "Blame It on God", "Dead but Dreaming" and Once Upon the Cross. While in the back and in the stands the heads shake and the horned hands rise to chant blasphemous hymns like "Kill the Christian" and the homonym to the group name: "Deicide". The devil wants to devour all the souls present and he succeeds with a tremendous closure consisting of "Sacrificial Suicide", Homage for Satan and of course: The highly anticipated "Dead by Dawn" that makes fans bark at that chorus like hell dogs hungry for flesh and blood. Ashes and bodies delivered to evil is what leaves Deicide at his brutal pace paying more than the disappointments that the band had suffered with the Mexican public on other occasions due to other organizers.
DEATH IN HEAVEN
Cleaned from sin in the eternal fire, ascension to paradise is present and souls access the most sublime of Eden to welcome them to Dark Tranquility. The melodies of melodic death metal are heard with Force of Hand to immediately drop a classic like it is "The Lesser Faith" that makes people stop recording the heavenly start with their mobile devices and start singing and jumping. "Atoma" which gives title to his most recent production followed by "The Treason Wall" and "The Science of Noise" that echoes in the flying circus are executed while a clear and huge screen projects amazing images and textures very typical of the world of Dark Tranquility: The same fretwork and divinities as a nostalgic video of a road trip or an industrial city, everything fits in the Divinity of sound Gothenburg in an impeccable production in step with songs like "Forward Momentum", "Terminus (Where Death Is Most Alive)", "The Silence in Between" and "The Pitiless".
Without a doubt one of the most energetic presentations of Swedes in our country because people keep jumping and tearing their throats in songs like "What Only You Know"; the slam in the pit keeps hitting everything in the fierce Monochromatic Stains and "The Wonders at Your Feet". Mikael Stanne In her image of divine but powerful messiah, with her Jesus Christ-like look she is an overflow of happiness and energy and she does not stop thanking Mexico for the incredible way in which the public responds in each of her shows. And while some people, perhaps not so Swedish fans, have a great time watching the Mc Gregor vs Mayweather fight on a screen placed in the circus lobby, those of us who follow this great musical epic delight ourselves with White Noise / Black Silence, "Encircled" and Clearing Skies with everything and lyrics of these themes exploding in the projection. Two old and titanic songs known as "Final Resistance" (where again the slam comes out in an unthinkable way) and "Thereln" they end the first part of the show.
The moment of glory is approaching and the end of the apocalypse unleashed throughout the festival is about to end. Dark Tranquility returns to the stage to applause for in a mixture of rage and cosmic divinity to close the night with State of Trust and "Through Smudged Lenses". Finally in a wonderful gold clasp with Misery's Crown Thus ends with the walk through 3 worlds to return to that of mortals willing to leave home with the joy of having witnessed what may be one of the best metal shows of the year.
