- Nachtmahr - Semper Fidelis - 2010-09-29
Saturday.830am. I am awake, getting ready to go to London for a very good reason. Nachtmahr and Uberbyte playing at the O2 Academy in Islington. When I found the venue after getting lost a couple of times as I had never been there before, in the queue I met a lovely bunch of people. Inside I bought myself an Uberbyte top (as I already have a Nachtmahr one from buying the collectors pack) and made my way into the hall where I met a couple of other lovely people.
The atmosphere was tense with anticipation as the small crowd that was gathering were waiting for the first band to come on stage. To be honest, I was not really expecting much from them, but I was pleasantly surprised by Method Cell, who I had not heard any of their music before. They should be better known then they are as they sound great live, they are danceable and they give out a great vibe. It is a shame there weren't more people there at the time but with the doors opening at six I can understand why even if a little disappointing. These guys are worth looking out for in the future they are going places. It is great to know Britain has talent in this scene.
Kommand + Kontrol
However I was not a fan of their vocal style, their instrumental pieces are enjoyable. Yet, something for me did not quite work. Saying that though they used the stage well and tried to get crowd interaction. It just was not my cup of tea but it was clear to see they had some fans in the small audience.
Uberbyte(Rich Pyne)
By this point the room was filling out very quite nicely as the stage was being prepared for Uberbyte to grace it. The excitement was building and the atmosphere was electric. When they came on they kicked off the set with Last Human which was one of the songs I really hoped they would play and it was a fantastic way to start it. They sounded fantastic, their stage presence was brilliant, they got the crowd involved and dancing. They mixed it up a bit with a few new tracks which were equally as good, the energy coming from the crowd was amazing. Other songs in their set which I hoped they would play were Industrial Bitch, Stand Up(For Uberbyte), and finishing the set off with Money Shot which for me made it... well that and the mini dance off I had during their set with someone. All together they are brilliant showmen (and woman), know how to make the crowd dance, great audience participation and they simply sound awesome.
Nachtmahr
Next is the band everyone has been waiting for - Nachtmahr. After seeing them at Infest 2010 I had some idea of what to expect, how ever they were even better then then. The tracks off their new album are astounding live and of course there were the old classics like Madchen In Uniform and El Cupacabra. The energy in the room was massive. Thomas has brilliant stage presence and is undoubtedly a brilliant show man. Ubeugsam was amazing and it being my favourite on the album (or at least one of them), I was thrilled to hear it live. Deus Ex Machina was chucked in the set and the massive club classic BoomBoomBoom!, as well. Everyone was dancing, singing along to the songs and enjoying ABBA based jokes.
It was an incredible evening, followed by a fantastic after party where I got to meet the Uberbyte guys (and girl) and Thomas Rainer(yet again), as well as one of the Swarf members and Deb and Steve from System-fx. I will most definately see them again next time around!
