Class gig, hats off to all involved in putting it on.
ZOM ARE THE FUCKING BUSINESS.
Haven't seen a band as good in ages. Jesus they were just insane. If I lived in Dublin I'd be at every one of their shows.
Cruciamentum were equally unreal. Totally savage.
Necros Christos kicked arse too, but the days sessioning was taking its toll and memory is a little hazy.
If I see 3 better performances on the same bill this year I'll be doing well. |

Can only echo most of what has been said before - Cruciamentum ruled the night, a totally crushing performance, no let-up whatsoever. Their drummer is unreal, his double-kick... HOLY FUCK.
Really enjoyed Necros Christos too but, as has been said before, would have liked to have heard more 'Triune Impurity Rites' material. There seemed to be more energy in their performance when they played the stuff from that album as opposed to the cuts from 'Doom of the Occult', but sure 'tis only a minor gripe. The sound was excellent for them too (as it usually is in the Pint).
Zom are ridiculously good, was really looking forward to their set and they kicked copious amounts of arse. The demo tunes sounded great live and their other material was class too - get 'em released! Scythian were alright, missed Zealot Cult... but, overall a fantastic gig! |

Think I've sweated my own body weight out over the last couple of nights. Drove into work this morning and I'd swear I'm still over the limit. Great craic both nights. Just wish I could remember even a little bit of Friday. It's a bit shit when a load of different people are showing you photos of you dancing around with your shirt off in the pub and you've no memory of it whatsoever.
Gig on Friday was great, just the vibe wasn't quite right in that everyone's half cut and in a party mood, and it's not that kind of music. Great stuff anyway.
Didn't see much of the bands on Sat due to talking shite to people, but there you go. The bit of Cruciamentum I watched was cool alright. Dani's an impressive drummer to say the least. |

| Missed ZC, thought Zom and Cruciamentum were amazing but NC stole the show. Mind blown. |

Seriously heavy, ferocious dess. Necros were unreal live. The sound all night was super but it really shone during their set. Ridiculously heavy but clear as a bell. Way too much new stuff played for my liking but damn it was a fantastic performance. Doom as fuck. How many were in last night? Close to three million I'd guess.
Just over 200 payers. |

Thanks to everyone who perused the wereworms stall on the night. Great to see a bit of interest. If any other bands are interested in getting patches or anything made up get in touch.
Had a great view of the gig at my stall, it was a great night with great tunes and great buzz! |

| People involved, guest list and bands would have brought it up to over the 250 mark for sure. |

| Watched Scythian from the back near the bar and enjoyed them. Cruciamentum were the main draw for me (6th time seeing them) and were band of the night for me as well. I also really enjoyed NC, I much rather them live than on record. The sound was excellent. Overall a great way to spend my second birthday of March 2012!! |

Absolutely. We were thrilled. How could you not be? The place was rammed to the rafters and the atmosphere was immense. All the bands were really pleased with the gig as well.
A fantastic weekend it has to be said. It began on Thursday for some of us and just ended now for me. Absolute pleasure dealing with Necros Christos, Scythian and Cruciamentum. Gentlemen through and through with no bullshit about them. Makes running events like this a joy.
A big thanks has to be sent out to Tony, Dan and especially Rats for making all the bands sound great. |

| Not much more needs to be said really, class gig... the Scythian vocalist coming off guitar and switching to just vocals seemed to work brilliantly, the more unhinged vocals sound excellent live. Cruciamentum were the band of the night for me though. Great to see the place completely packed. |
