Each to his own, but I thought Obituary were shit. Opening with 'Find The Arise' is always good, but it was downhill from there. Not having Allen West is no bad thing, because frankly he's rubbish (same solo in every song), but that replacement guy.........what? He had me laughing out loud a few times with his determination to play every note of every solo on as high a fret as he could reach. And then bend it. Badly.
There was times when they were titanically sloppy, like a bad rehearsal, and Tardy didn't bother with vocals for a section of Slowly We Rot.
Rubbish. Thank The Good Lord Above I saw them in their prime.
Onslaught, who I'm not a huge fan of, were considerably better.
