ORGY/COLD BALTIMORE SHOW REVIEW

Ron

Published

Orgy and Cold came into Baltimore on a Sunday at Soundstage bringing all kinds of Goths/Rockers to the show.

Cold who are still touring on the anniversary of “Year of the Spider” always brings a good time, good music and lots of singing. The band is always one of the best when it comes to fans. Scooter always stops for autographs and photos. Watching them throughout the years has been amazing and everytime still takes my breath away. This time i got to watch the band play with my Friend and Friend of the band Kid Dreadful and her parents. It’s always amazing to connect with others on the songs of Cold. I love how they interact with the fans on stage and love watching Lindsay plays the bass on stage, you can really tell she gets into the world of every song. Songs like “Back Home”, “Don’t Belong” and “Wasted Years” really make the night special. We also got to hear a few songs of the debut album like “Everyone Dies” and “Insane”.

Orgy was headling tonight touring on the 25th anniversary of “Candyass”. The band has had some mishaps with busses on this tour and the drummer tonight had a fever over 100, but that didn’t stop them from coming out and doing a show for the fans. It was great to hear the songs like “Stitches”, “Blue Monday”, “Gender” and “Dizzy”. We got to hear “Slept so long” off the Queen of the damned soundtrack. Since the drummer wasn’t feeling that great they did cut a few songs off but then came back onstage and said screw It lets do one more and did the new song “Skum”. I loved that when they played “Blue Monday” Jay came out into the crowd to sing and jump with the fans.

This was a great tour and was super great seeing 2 bands that have shaped my musical tastes in the late 90s early 2000s. I can’t wait to see what’s next for both Cold and Orgy. If you get a chance to see them play, I urge you to do so.

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.

LUDACRIS : THE HALL AT LIVE

ATL IS IN THE HOUSE. 

Ludacris came into Maryland at the Hall in Live Casino and brought with him the masses that were ready for a good time, good fun and good tunes. 

Ludacris said it’s been a long time since he’s been back to Maryland and DC area. I loved that he just came out with his dj and his hype man and himself nothing else was needed when you entertain like Ludacris does. Whether  you’re a fan from back in the day or a fan of his movies, Ludacris made everyone happy and made sure they were fully entertained. 

Of course Ludacris played some of his hits songs like “Act a Fool”, “Move Bitch”, “What’s your fantasy”, “Get Back” and “Area Codes” but he also played some old school tracks and a few covers like “Holiday Inn” and “Yeah”. The crowd was hitting that good weed as well and threw some blunts up to the stage during “BlueBerry Yum Yum”. 

Ludacris made a statement that his first album came out in 2000 and this next year is the 25th anniversary of the album. It was a great night and a great time, Ludacris knows how to keep the fans engaged and entertained all night. He’s very fan friendly and charismatic which makes sense that he’s also a great actor.
