It has hard to judge BAAL as their sound was kind of terrible. The guitar was WAY too loud in the mix, and i was right in front of his amp, so i that was most of what i heard. All guitar. The vocals were hard to discern, and the pre-recorded tracks were buried too far in the mix. All i can say is, they gave me a headache. But not because i thought they sucked, but because i got an overdose of guitar.
But they seemed like super nice people. I’m gonna give their studio stuff a listen and draw conclusions from that.
SP were fantastic!!! It was sooo cool and weird to hear all these songs i’ve listened to for so many years, and 100s of times live. Ogre was actually really ill, and because of this, they were unable to perform an encore, which was a huge bummer. But i’m just glad he got the energy to power through it.
Was REAL surprised to hear The Choke.
