I just saw Noxagt. They were guitar, bass and drums. Apparantly the other dude left. Why wasn't I informed!

They kicked an awful lot of ass. I just felt sorry for the dude standing infront of me. In a room full of nerds (like us EAers) wearing spectacles and corduroys and stroking their beards whilst remarking on the interesting bass tones (probably) this one dude was wearing a leather trenchcoat and gloves and trying his hardest to headbang. Except everytime he started, the time signature changed. Then, when they went into a build-up, he'd hold his hands out like claws and start raising them up over his head, except the crescendos (or whatever) wouldnt come and he'd just be stood there with his arms in the air and after a while put them down again and put his hands in his pockets. Bless him.

It was only a short set but they're pretty brutal. Calvados Beam Trio were excellent. Some might accuse them of trying to be don cab/battles but those people can go and die in a fire because the world needs more bands like that.

And Knives were great too. One of their members posts here under the name Knives. If it's the young guy who ran upto me in the middle of a song and said "meep" I'd like to say salut! You made me uncomfortable yet happy!

Noxagt is currently touring the U.S. Here are the dates (Euro-backward style).

I guess you have to have a weird, fucked-up band name, like Noxagt does, in order to play shows with them.

STNNNG? OAXACAN? GHOST DAD?

Isabelle Gall, for one, is not going to stand for this shit.

I am glad someone has the guts to stand up to them!

Crazy-letters-at-random band names:

FUCK OFF

Are you guys being ironical and stuff?

You probably are but just for the record Oaxacan is a place in Mexico.

Considering what you use as a map, I'm not surprised.
