In my "return" post I already mentioned it briefly, the concert I went to with my youngest son. This was the concert of the Danish death metal band "As in Hell". This band is a side project of the frontman of Volbeat, Micheal Poulsen. I already wrote about Volbeat in an earlier post. written, a Danish rock-metal band that became very big.
Michael has a love for death metal and is also influenced from that angle for, for example, songs by Volbeat. He has known the singer (of Asinhell) for a long time and they always wanted to do something together. So now they did :).
The performance was in Utrecht, Vredenburg, a small venue and the complete opposite of where we normally see Michael, in the big arenas. That was really cool actually.
The music is just a bit harder than Volbeat, let's say a lot harder. I had to get used to it for a while but after the first song we both thought it was absolutely great, what energy and how cool to see this in such a small setting.
Normally I always get a shirt at a concert, the As in Hell shirts were real death metal shirts, with matching prints. So I just left them there :)
The support act was a Dutch metal band, I didn't know them but they sounded really cool. Too bad for the guitarist, his amplifier broke down and it took a long time before he fixed it. The music wasn't any less :)
Before the concert we went out for dinner together, that was also an experience. We thought we had selected a regular restaurant, it turned out to be a vegan restaurant. Nothing wrong with vegan, just not for us :)
All in all, another great concert I saw together with my youngest, and I hope there will be many more to come.
Have a great evening,
Peter
