SUMMARY:Drums Are For Parades + Diablo Blvd + Steak Number Eight
LOCATION:AB Grote zaal (Anspachlaan 110\, 1000 Brussel)
DESCRIPTION:Bellowing pride from local soil all collected on one\nstageOver recent months there has been quite a turn up of\ntalent in the harder music genres. That's why the AB\nthinks that the time is ripe for presenting 3 of\nBelgium's most impressive bands from that corner on one\nstage... and wouldn't one of those pleasant Sundays in\nthe dark month of December be ideally suited? Yep\, on\nDecember 18 we welcome to the AB's biggest stage:teak\nNumber Eight struck gold with ‘All Is Chaos’. A pounding\nbut crystal clear production by Mario Goossens\n(Triggerfinger\, The Black Box Revelation) and a mix by Matt\nBayles (Mastodon\, Pearl Jam) has already afforded them\nquite some praise. Just as a showcase in London did too.\nMetal Hammer – the metal mag - already came all the way\nover here especially to see ‘Belgium’s bright young\nhopes’. Their melodic post-rock/noise is acquainted with\ninfluences like Isis\, Neurosis\, Pelican\, Red Sparowes and\nDeftones and\, after Graspop\, it will be bringing them to\nthe AB at the end of the year.Diablo Blvd is Alex\nAgnew's leathered musical outlet. In 2009 he made album\n‘The Greater God’ together with the likes of Tim Bekaert\n(A Brand) and Andries Beckers (Born from Pain\, the Setup).\nTheir new CD ‘Builders Of Empires’ has just recently\nbeen released and was this time mixed by Jens Bogren\n(Opeth\, Amon Amarth). It went down well by press and public\nalike and they'll be playing at Graspop this year too\nand also be present in AB on December 18.With Drums Are For\nParades we direct the spotlight to one of the AB Artists In\nResidence. This year the power trio from Ghent want to have\nfinished an idiosyncratic E.P. on which you will find a\nnumber of new songs with surprising guest contributions. A\nfirst song with Chris Goss from Masters Of Reality\,\nrecorded in AB\, is already to be found on the internet.\nDrums Are For Parades' debut album (‘Master’) was\nreleased in September 2010\, made a big impression right\naway and resulted in concerts with Baroness and Slayer.\n‘Master’ leaves you with whitened knuckles\, bloodshot\neyes and foaming at the mouth … a "master"-ful\nalbum’! (De Morgen ****)    Drums Are For Parades\, Steak\nNumber Eight\, Diablo Blvd. and AB went in search of a\nsupport-act for the concert in AB on 18.12 via Poppunt's\nvi.be platform. Band Cloon managed to bag the most\npreference votes. They managed to rope themselves in as\nsupport-act for Clawfinger's European tour with their\nfirst EP from 2005. The band were finally noted as 'most\npromising' with the album 'Mostly Harmless'.\nMusical description? As if you put members of Tool\, Faith\nNo More and Primus in a band with Frank Zappa & Tom\nWaits.                                                      \n
