Neurosis played from 9pm through 10:30pm. We have enjoyed this exceptional band in 2017 @ Psycho Las Vegas festival. It seems the band, founded 1985, is like cognac and is getting better
the older the members get. Obviously the group benefits from 3 decades
of performances.
Again they delivered a very intense experience with
massive, fierce & hypnotic riffs & vocals. Atmospheric & doomed part led to violent explosions - a mesmerizing experience
Yob opened the concert around 6.20 pm. We had enjoyed their performance in 2017 @ Psycho Las Vegas festival & last year in New York. Frontman Mike Scheidt and his band (Aaron Rieseberg – bass guitar & Travis Foster
– drums ) performed again pure magic. Mike is a virtuoso on the guitar and he
puts his audience under the spell of massive and violent riffs blended
with melodic and almost symphonic elements - amplified by his excellent
colleagues. Yesterday Yob delivered again virtuous & almost
unbelievable heavy sound waves, but what the band makes outstanding is
Mike´s voice. He performs the genre usual aggressive growls & roars
but sometimes his voice changes into a melodic mode. Like a singer in a
bizarre opera he mesmerizes with a hypnotic voice. Yesterday`s gig was a
very intense experience, beautiful and wild - pure bliss.
Godflesh build the bridge from Yob to Neurosis. In the begin I was a bit irritated because there were just of 2 musicians (guitars, vocals) - the percussion set was unoccupied - and the drums were delivered from the computer. But I got used to their massive sound and enjoyed the gig anyway.
Thanks to Neurosis, Yob & Godflesh to a very special experience.
