Coma - Missed them.
Horehound - Awful band name. Not much better of a band. They would get my interest in maybe 5 second splashes. In the future I'll miss this band too.
Weedeater - Killed it. They're so ridiculously good. Stoner metal at it's absolute finest. I'll try see them everytime they come around. Taking swigs of that Evan Williams.
Tartarus - Missed them. We came straight here after the other show.
Derketa - Ladies playing metal in a particularly vicious affront. Good band. Pittsburgh band.
Wrathcobra - Dreadlocked metal punks. They have been playing for a long time, and they will no longner be playing any more. Good band, first time in years I saw them.
Oh Shit They're Going to Kill Us - Great Pittsburgh band. Way better then I remember. This is their last show ever also. They had this smoke breathing dragon that was amazing thrown into the pit and shredded to pieces. It was a good time. Heavy, groovy, punk rock, great time.
Plasmid - missed them.
Killer of Sheep - Local punks, been playing all the shows forever. Good set.
Crazy and the Brains - I liked the band's getup. Very British post war or something. The singer wore what looked to be a fancy shower robe. Up beat punk rock, not so yelly. I'd like to see this band again.
Negative Approach - I thought they were surprisingly good. They played all the old jams and weren't too boring. That was my thought, this is going to be boring. It was definitely not. I think they were better this show than at This is Hardcore.
Leftover Crack - Well they're getting old. But they still pretty much killed it. Good set, they didn't play Athiest Anthem but they did play the rest of the jams. Gay Rude Boys Unite and the theme song were the high points.
Hi's - Going out to the punk show is always a good time.
Low's - It was very cold.
Lacerate -Hardcore punk, I think from Cleveland? They were good. I was just getting tuned up at this point.
Blood Pressure - Always good. I thought they were especially good at this set.
Warpath - This band was big at one point. They are very pro queer. All that is encouraged, what is not encouraged is how shitty they were. I believe at one time this band brought it, they no longer do. From New York I think. Disappointment.
Lebenden Toten - This band was awesome. The singer lady has odd moves on stage that are fun to watch. Every song is super fast and yelly. The punks came out for this band, the rest of the set, well, not so much. I'd like to see this band again. They're from Portland I think.
Mob 47 - Old heads playing old style punk. Good set. Wasn't the crowd support that you want to see. Maybe Spirit was a little too big for this show.
Sissy Baby Boys - Great band name. Easy going punk. Ramones cover. I like the dude and the chic who sing for them. Good set.
The Homicides - They were actually my favorite band of the night other than Submachine. Good band. Funny band too. I liked it.
Ruin by Design - from DC. They were pretty good too. Fast punk rock.
Like No Tomorrow - This band was the best of the two out of staters. They were a little bit politically motivated, which is a good thing.
Submachine - When doesn't Submachine kill it? Very good set. They didn't play the beer song.
I was happy about the turnout, relatively, and also happy about the drink prices.
SLIP - Pittsburgh punk rock for fans of guitars and denim. They've been playing for a few years and are really good. Noisy and fast.
Phantasy Lane - No idea if they played or not. No finding anything of theirs on the internet. Mystery.
Mati - From New York. At the time I thought this band was Probeza Mental. Now I see it's Mati. They may sing all their songs in Greek. Maybe. Good energy weirdo punk.
Mueco - I don't think this band played. They're a D-beat punk band with a banner that I would have remembered.
Haram - Awesome band. They sing in all arabic. Fast and loud, good hardcore punk. Even between songs dude was speaking arabic. The singer has odd body language and is a good front man for a punk band. Awesome.
Lecherous Gaze - Awesome band. The singer wore some weird glasses and face wrap. It was odd and cool. Heavy guitar screaming punk rock. Very good set.
Beta Boys - I don't think they played.
Pink Mist - I don't think they played.
Probeza Mental - Good band. I thought they were Mati when Mati played. I actually like Mati a little better. Still, decent band.
Scalpel - I don't know if they played or not.
So, as you can see my review of this show is a mess. I didn't know any of the bands real well, but there were a few gems through the day.
Unreliable Narrator - This band is ok. Kind of noisy and a little bit fast. Weirdo punk.
Elected Officials - Not bad. Not great. Lady singer who was the best part of the band. I'd see them again, and I'll listen to some of their stuff sometime. They're touring right now with MDC I think.
MDC - They pretty much disappointed me in almost every way. I don't know what I expected really. The sound was pretty bad. The song selection maybe was ok. They played the big songs towards the end like John Wayne was a Nazi and Chicken Squak and Corporate Deathburger, and even though I really like many of their songs on recording, they sucked tonight live. I guess the punks must know about MDC in 2018, because they stayed the fuck home for this one.
HI's - cheap beer, Elected Officials
Low's - Just about everything else.
