Helmet

Helmet @ the Slidebar March 2011

There was a free show last night at the Slidebar with Helmet, Sederra and Backlight Revelation. I was only able to catch the last half of Helmet's set but it was worth it.  The last time I saw Helmet was before Betty came out, so maybe 93-94. I've always liked them, they reminded me of a catchier Godflesh. Those that know me know my love for Justin and his almighty Godflesh, so that wasn't a slight on them. Fast foward 15 plus years, I know it's not the same band but Page and company still put on a good show. I heard people complaining that they were playing new material for the first half of the set but by the time I got there they had already started playing the classics,  In the Meantime and Strap It On songs. Here's the pics-

Fraud

Fraud @ Glasshouse 6/6/11 Yes I know this was the second night of the Outspoken/Mouthpiece/Youth of Today show but this band deserves its own post. Fraud is a brand new band featuring the likes of old hardcore dudes from bands like Chain of Strength, Inside Out, Statue, Excel, Pushed Aside and Against the Wall. And we all know how much I love Chain of Strength, so I was excited to see this bands first show. It was a quick set but they were on fire. I missed Outspoken the first night due to work so I was glad to get a chance to see them Monday night. Mouthpiece had a great set, it was funny to see Ben Merlis in the crowd singing every single song along with Tim.  No Curtis for the second night but Mouthpiece did get Porcell to do Straight Edge Revenge. I'll say it again- Youth of Today were just as great now as they were 20 years ago. But I thought the show was going to end early though,  just past the half way point of Youth of Todays set Ray fell and hurt his leg. Porcell took
