Last night at the Filmore in Silver Spring, MD Till Lindemann brought the fun, the sex, the cakes and pies, and also brought a hell of a show with some killer opening acts as well.

Opening up was Aesthetic Perfection and frontman Daniel Graves bringing the electronic/industrial fun to the stage. With songs like Gods & Gold and Summer Goth. AP got the crowd ready and pumped for the rest of the show.

My favorite Satanic doo-wop band, Twin Temple, was up next, and they always bring such a great show with fun music, positivity, and, of course, Satan. Oh ya and Satanic Orgies. I love seeing this band live; it’s such a crazy but yet amazing show, and it’s so fun to have people see them that haven’t before and see the look on their faces. With songs like The Devil (Made Me Do It) and Satan’s a Woman. Twin Temple put the fun back in Satan.

Till was up next, and I was excited to see his solo band play. I’ve seen Rammstein a few times but wanted to see this project so bad. I knew that his live shows were crazy, insane, and entertaining, but I was not even close to being ready for the mayhem that was about to happen. I was also excited to see my buddy and insanely talented and also just insane drummer Joe Letz. The set was amazing, with all kinds of fun debauchery along the way. What I didn’t expect was cake, pies, fish and many other things being thrown around, but it was a wonderful surprise.

With songs like “Golden Showers,” “Praise Abort,” and “Skills in Pills,” the whole show was a sight to watch with amazing music and Till always entertaining, but also the led screen in the back with video play that would make some of the “less” open fans maybe close their eyes, but then again, if you know, you know.

Overall, the whole show was amazing and such a blast. If you get a chance to check out this tour and/or check out any of the bands on the tour, I would recommend it. It’s naughty but so much fun.

STRYPER ON A SUNDAY. YES PLEASE

STRYPER was just in Baltimore the other day on the 40 years of Stryper tour. Playing 2 sets spanning those 40 years. I’ve only ever seen Stryper play at M3 so it was amazing to get to see a full on set then another full on set right after.

For the 1st set we got the 1984-1990 set which included songs like “Loud N Clear”, “Soldiers under Command” and “To Hell with the Devil”.

The second set we got 1986, 2004-2024 with songs like “No More Hell to Pay”, “This i Pray” and ending the night with “Sing along Song”.

It was a great night for Music and sadly more then likely the last show at RamsHead Live I’ll be ever to attend as the are closing their doors (hopefully will be open again with a new venture) but the show was amazing to see Stryper play on the stage. Such great guys and a great band. I love that Stryper is fully engaged with the fans and the show is always amazing. I love that they put their religious beliefs 100% on display but the show never feels preachy or judgmental. If you get a chance to see Stryper play in your city I fully recommend it such a great time and a great band to see play live.

King Diamond who’s on tour now with Overkill and Night Demon.

Overkill always puts on a great show and shows that face pace thrash metal is still kick ass. Led by NJ’s Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth Overkill has that distinctive sound with Bobby’s high pitched and raspy vocals. With songs like “Scorched”, “ Rotten to the Core” and “Hello From the Gutter”, Overkill got the crowd into a frenzy and warmed up the stage before the king.

You know it’s gonna be a good night when it’s 3 days before Halloween and you get to see a kick ass set from King Diamond. King Diamond who’s 68 right now still commands that stage and sounds amazing with his insanely falsettos. The stage show at a King Diamond show is always such a great sight to see. With a multilayer setup of stairs and little pieces of elaborate set all over it’s such a great view and perfect setting to watch a King Diamond set.

The set list was amazing too we got to hear songs from such a great career like “A Mansion in the Darkness”, “Halloween “, “Spider Lilly”, “Welcome Home”, and “Eye of the Witch” and of course ending the night with “Abagail”.

If you’re a fan of King Diamond or just a fan of great music that adds that Halloween haunted asylum themed stage performances then you need to go out and check this tour now. King Diamond never disappoints and always puts on one hell of a show.

ITS TIME TO GET YOUR BODY BEAT AND LET THE BLOOD FLOW

Combichrist came into Lovedrafts in Mechanicsburg with an old school electronic set and the return of PA’s own DeathMaschine.

Combichrist took the dark stage armed with Eric on the synths/sampler and Andy on Vocals and an open stage to rampage on. I got to hear some killer kick ass songs I haven’t heard in a while like “Today I woke to the rain of blood”, “This is My Rifle” and This shit will fuck you up”.

The crowd were super excited to watch the set and everyone was having a good time, dancing to the beats, and singing all the songs and having an amazing time. I’ve been wanting to see Combichrist do these old school sets and have always loved that era of the band. We also got to hear “Like to Thank My Buddies” and “Shut up and Swallow”. We also got a super rare treat for an encore Andy went back even further in his musically roots and pulled out an Icon of Coil song “Dead Enough For Life”, which got the crowd in a frenzy.
