Soulfly

Headliner: soulfly
Venue: rock city Nottingham
Date: 28 feb 2014
Support: savage messiah

Well it was time for gig number 6 of 2014 this time soulfly, now this was a kind of out of my comfort zone type of moment for as I may like a multitude of music genres but metal isn't one of them, so seeing soulfly with max cavalera from sepultura was possibly the equivalent of being thrown in at the deep end.

First up tonight was a band called savage messiah it's was a mere 30 seconds after walking into rock city basement that they were all making the "metal sign" i am sure some people might love this but the leather waistcoats and iron maiden tribute band sound really wasn't my thing.

Well it was time for soulfly in a small compact sell out at rock city basement. As I have already said metal isn't my thing and I don't consider it to be heavy either not while Dillinger escape plan are still roaming the earth I'm not sure anything else could be classed as heavy.

Anyway soulfly came on and the crowd were loving it "metal signs" filled the air. I didn't really know many of the songs and which ones i did were old sepultura songs like refuse/resist, territory and roooooots bloooody roooooots as I believe it's pronounced.

And I not sure what hootie and the blowfish did to annoy max (apart from being awful) with the song no, with the lyrics no worship, no bullsh1t, no motherf**kin hootie and the blowfish. Which did make me chuckle.

I not sure what it says about my music taste when well the music from soulfly isn't hard enough or fast enough for me and a bit to slow, give me a DEP show anyway.

No doubting max is a legend in the scene and to be honest it wasn't as bad as I was expecting it to be
