Gatecreeper - Dark Superstition (2024). The purveyors of stadium death metal are back with a splendid new album. I love this band, and the new record has been playing on repeat here all weekend. Solid album!

CONCERT/MUSIC WRAPPED 2024

So I know the new year has started, but I've been wanting to post all the concerts I've gone to in the past year. I didn't get to do one for 2023 because I was dumb and forgot, so I'm not going to forget again lol!

This will include my thoughts on the concerts or any information that I deem relevant to share. These are my opinions so take them with a grain of salt!

MARCH 15th - Avenged Sevenfold, Poppy & Sullivan King

This was the first concert I went to with my current boyfriend! Avenged Sevenfold KILLED IT!! As a bass player, when I caught Johnny's pick I was freaking the fuck out. But Poppy had unfortunate stage presence and you could tell the crowd wasn't really feeling either of the openers. Their sets were SO long!! Especially for openers... Overall 8/10.

APRIL 6th - Kaonashi, Pains, Mugshot, Cell & Exiled IA (my first and only show with Exiled as their bassist!)

I had a great time playing my first show ever!! It was unfortunate the circumstances within Exiled, but I had a great time regardless and made lots of friends! 7/10

APRIL 15th - Necrogoblikon, Dragonforce & Dethklok

AWESOME SHOW!! The goblin from Necrogoblikon gave me a setlist and the lovely bassist for Dragonforce did the same. It was an awesome feeling knowing they wanted me specifically to get them! They had great crowd interaction! And don't get me started on Dethklok!! There was a great break in the show where Brendon did all the character voices, and the show was LOUD. I also got to meet the guitarist for Dethklok, Nili Brosh, after the show!! 10/10

APRIL 23rd - SESSANTA: Pucifer, A Perfect Circle & Primus

Was seated super far away so it was hard for me to see (as someone with glasses), but there wasn't really a whole lot to see anyway from what I could tell. The lighting design was beautiful though! Also I'll always be disappointed that there was no photos or videos allowed. But it was my first concert out of state! Even though I had to sleep in the airport both ways to get there... 6/10

MAY 1st - Nothing More & Wage War

Legendary!! I threw up three times lmao. (in the trash! I would never do that on the floor!) It was worth it. Most headbanging I think I've done in my life. Also got in the pit, I fell really hard and skinned my knees, they bled through my pants. 9/10

MAY 18th - Rippin' N' Rollin' 1: Polly Mall Cops

Super fun concept!! The skating rink here hosted a local band to play for the first time ever! They played in the middle of the rink while everyone skated around. As someone who loves to skate, has their own pair of skates, plays roller derby, and loves rock music, it was a total win. And it was PACKED! So happy to see the rink making good money! Also got to chat with the band, so fun! 9/10

JUNE 1st - Released "imposter/syndrome" with Fatherwounds

I don't have much to say about this one just because it was a pretty casual project just made for fun. I always have a great time working with my friend on music and I was glad we could actually release something together!

JULY 12th - Fit For A King, Hollywood Undead & I Prevail

Not quite an out of state concert but it was a three hour drive to get there. And none of us realized that there was two separate GA pits. So we were subjected to the back pit. And the crowd was LAME!! When the bands asked for crowd participation, from raising their hands, to screaming, to opening up the pit, the crowd never responded!! I was in agony because I knew if I was up in the front pit I would get shit going!! Hollywood Undead and I Prevail had fire sets though. Fit For A King was absolutely carried by the bassist. 5/10

JULY 23rd - Return To Dust, Tigercub & Chevelle

I got a free ticket so how could I possibly say no? I got to hang out with the DJ's from the local radio station and I got my poster signed by Return To Dust. They were so sweet! But the singer from Tigercub is a total asshole!! Or at least he treated me like shit. I love their music but fuck him. He was definitely drunk. 4/10

JULY 27th - Rippin' N' Rollin' 2: Tires & Glitter Density

Another good show at the rink! This one was more vibe-y electronic music so it wasn't really my speed, but I just love skating so it wasn't too bad. It was fun skating with my boyfriend. 5/10

AUGUST 15th - Hairball

Hairball never disappoints! They always put on a fire show and their outfits are killer! I've never been in such a crowd full of assholes before. I mean... I've dealt with some shitty people, but these people were HORRIBLE. Show was a 9/10 but the people bring it down to a 6/10

AUGUST 17th - Avatar, Ice Nine Kills & In This Moment

Another great concert! Avatar was amazing!! Everything I was expecting! And it was Henrik's birthday!! In This Moment had the same setlist as last time, which was fine, but I kinda wanted something different. She's stunning though. And Ice Nine Kills blew me away! That was my second(?) time seeing them and they played all the songs I wanted to hear! I LOVE WURST VACATION!! And Meat and Greet!! 9/10

SEPTEMBER 19th - Slipknot no.9 whiskey signing

This was leading up to Knotfest Iowa. They had their whiskey signing at a local grocery store here (which was wild btw) and it was PACKED. You couldn't find a place to park! I brought my limited edition 2000's Wait and Bleed CD to be signed since I couldn't purchase a bottle of no.9. But they never told us what members would be there so I was hoping there would be an original member to sign my CD since it was decently limited. But of course, every member there was one that WASN'T on the album... Of course I still got it signed and I was very thankful for the opportunity, but it's still mildly disappointing... and it was fucking HOT out. I waited for like 2 hours... 7/10

SEPTEMBER 20th - Vended album release signing

LOVE THEM!!! They recognized me as soon as I walked in the store! "Hey you've come to a couple of our shows right?" Damn right I have!! They're always super kind and I run into their girlfriends in town all the time! Saw Simon and his girlfriend Lilly at a Spirit Halloween this past October lol! Griffin also complimented my corset! 10/10

SEPTEMBER 21st - Knotfest Iowa 2024

It was a good time even though once again it was fucking hot. I pretty much saw every band who was there! Till Lindemann was such a treat! I am so in love with Jes and Constance... My boyfriend hand painted me a Slipknot jumpsuit and mask to wear! Also got to see a lot of my friends there, including Vended and their girlfriends once again lol! But the downside was Slipknot's set was cut short due to a thunderstorm. All of the crowd was ready to keep going, but apparently it was 'too dangerous'. Sigh... I really wanted to hear them play Scissors and Spit It Out... 8/10

OCTOBER 4th - Worm, Frozen Soul TX & Gatecreeper

Another fun time! This was my first deathcore show and I was having such a blast in the pit! I also got in for free because my friend works for the owners of the venue! Got to chat with the bands and take a picture too! 9/10

OCTOBER 19th - Seether & Skillet

Lol I called out of work for this one... Don't tell my boss. I mean the tickets were super cheap and Skillet was a bucket list band to see. And fuckkkkk they didn't disappoint! They played every song I wanted to hear and I knew every word! Got to hang out with the local rock radio DJ's again and meet the new guy! I love my homies at Lazer! Seether was average for me, I like more of their b-side songs and obviously they didn't play those. We left halfway through their set lol 9/10

OCTOBER 31st - Rippin' N' Rollin' 3: Haploid & Druids

As I've said before... I LOVE SKATING!! And I got to wear my Slipknot jumpsuit again since it was a Halloween show! Also Druids played a Nine Inch Nails cover so I was rocking outttt!!! 10/10

NOVEMBER 12th - Wind Walkers, Zero 9:36, Currents & The Plot In You

It was my boyfriend's birthday and his friend bought us all tickets so it was a free show. I really wanted to go to see Wind Walkers and The Plot In You. Wind Walkers played every song I wanted to hear. It was fucking awesome!! I caught a Currents pick which I gave to my friend because he wanted it so badly. (he loves currents) He ended up catching a Zero 9:36 pick so he traded me, which worked out perfect! 8/10

NOVEMBER 27th - Scene Queen & Babymetal

Scene queen was good! I knew a majority of her songs and she was super cute! The only thing that killed it for me was these bitches behind me who told me to stop headbanging. Fuck them. But seeing Babymetal for the second time was a dream come true!! I love Momoko so much! She smiled really big when she saw I knew the dances! (specifically her parts!) 8/10
