To open tonight Ohio natives Twelve Tribes appear to be something innovative and exciting to start of proceedings on this highly anticipated night. Of course they have the cliché metal / hardcore look about them, some dredds, big beards - you know the drill. Though the band more than rise to the occasion because they seem to rock the socks off of this packed out Fibbers crowd.
Arguably more ferocious than the melody driven screams of Crazyfists, they do not spare a single moment to break from unleashing a full onslaught upon us. With a heafty back catalogue of work, including the catchy guitar driven hooks of 'Midwest Pandemic' and the brutal and progressive 'Venus Complex' (aided by the 'burly' Brock Lindow, vocalist from 36), Twelve Tribes pull of a very impressive and explosive debut.
After what seems like forever and a day in terms of anticipation at least, Alaska's supercharged 36 Crazyfists take the stage. Intricate chords launch the beautiful and spine shattering 'At The End Of August'. Of course this is the cue for bodies to really hit the floor (and Twelve Tribes did a grand job setting the mood), everybody gets in the pit, it's a touching moment. People are thrown away numerous times and picked right back up again! Standout tracks like 'On Any Given Night' and 'Fell Through a Phone Line' are two examples of the 'newer breed' of songs in the popular Crazy-catalogue, showing the power of these guys and in turn, their relevance to the metal scene today.
With the passion and drive behind their unique angst ridden brand of music there is nothing stopping them now. 36 Crazyfists tonight show that they love it intimate; they are here for the music that people will sweat for and pound their fists in the air. If they so happen to miss the air and hit you in the face, you know you will just get right back up and continue rocking out just because you can and know you should. This is the spirit of music and rock, and tonight the spirit of ROCK wears us like a glove.
