The PA speakers go in FRONT of the band, not behind.


We were using them as monitors as well, so they needed to be behind so we could hear them. Something tells me that, considering the size of the space, the audience could still hear it loud and clear haha


Well, I won't argue with you there. However, having them behind you will give you wicked feedback (among other things). Granted, if you're a screamer, I doubt that would matter too much. Hey, as long as you're having fun, that's all that matters.


As long as I'm not like pointing the mic directly at the speakers, they never really give me any feedback issues.

2 things

1. castelvania?

2. i fully expected to find out that whatever "death metal" i would find in this topic would by no means be actual "death metal" but you guys look pretty legit. sounds like it was an awesome time.


I love old school Castlevania! Favorite series.

We are definitely a bit more melodic with our riffs than your stereotypical death metal, with some black metal influence as well, but in general its the best descriptor for us I think. We are into a lot of melodic death/black metal like Amon Amarth, Immortal, At the Gates, Dissection etc.

thats pretty cool. the only story i have is from the halo 3 midnight release when a person in a passing car threw a taco bell burrito at someone while shouting fucking nerds

What a waste of a perfectly good diarrhea missile

Also, I'm in a death metal and a power/thrash band myself


Nice, what are your bands called?

Today's poll was asking if you have ever gone to the midnight release of a game. It got me reminiscing about the one time that I did.

Back in 2011 my death metal band had the unique opportunity to play a live set at a Gamestop for the midnight release of Skyrim. Our guitarist's sister worked as a manager there and hooked it up. We do kind of an epic fantasy themed sound, so it was fitting.

To this day, that is still one of my favorite shows we've played. The people there actually seemed pretty entertained despite my growling the whole time. I think it was the novelty of the whole situation. I didn't know at the time that Skyrim would become one of my favorite games, so now it's a really cool memory.

Anyone else have some fun midnight release stories to share?

Here's a picture from our Gamestop set:
