Unfortunately I couldn&#8217;t stay long enough for Cold Grave.  Also, Elk recently lost a couple of members, so they are now down to 3 members instead of 5.
Videos of the remaining two below, Repulsive Infestation (Oakland) and Deadly Remains (Santa Rosa).
Repulsive Infestation:


Deadly Remains:

Haha, check out the crab-dance about 1:40 into the Deadly Remains clip

Friday the 13th Metal Massacre, some metal bands playing at Craneway Pavilion:  Lungs of a Blast Furnace, The Venting Machine, St Vernon, Serpent &#38; Seraph, plus one or two more.  I was only able to catch The Venting Machine and Lungs of a Blast Furnace.
This place is CAVERNOUS.  Ford used to make tanks here during World War 2.  I guess this place has a long history of metal  
Here is Lungs of a Blast Furnace:


This place could hold 5,000 standing (or 2,000 seated).  They made it a little more &#8220;intimate&#8221; by curtaining-off the very back and front.  About 4:30 into the video you get a peek at the rest of the insides of the building.
Lolz, most places won&#8217;t let you anywhere near &#8220;backstage&#8221;, yet here you had to enter from behind the stage and almost &#8220;sneak&#8221; into the area where everyone could watch the bands.  This is the view ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
This nu-thrash trend that had taken metal by storm recently, has it&#8217;s prominent fellows that don&#8217;t really change much.  Let&#8217;s face it, bands like Warbringer write some really fun thrash tunes, and (supposedly) have a great live show to boot, but they do not by any means rewrite the thrash metal book.  One band that has done just that, is Phoenix&#8217;s Vektor.  Their 2009 release, Black Future, is an astonishingly fresh piece of metal.  It becomes pretty apparent in the first track that this band means business.  David Disanto (guitar/vox) has a Show No Mercy era Araya falsetto that will make the hairs on the back of your neck creep.  This album&#8217;s riffs school any thrash band out there today, and even compete with your classic 1980&#8217;s bands.  It&#8217;s rare where you find a band who can thrash your face off and be technical, progressive and consistent the whole way ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Sacramento technical/hardcore/experimental metal band The Antioch Synopsis has just posted 4 new tracks to their myspace page, or if you&#8217;re one of those fancy technical types you can download the torrent of their new tracks. You may not recall, but I wrote a brief description (dare I say &#8211; &#8220;synopsis&#8221;?) of the band a few months ago, outlining some up-and-coming &#8220;tech-death&#8221; bands.
TAS&#8217;s sound is kind of a combination of Job For a Cowboy meets Converge meets The Black Dahlia Murder, with more of an emphasis on the heavy riffing. Overall, I like the direction these new songs are heading in &#8211; both in the production and the style. Check out the first track, Fearless Leader: Guide Us to Oblivion for a taste of what they have to offer.
Oh, and apparently they&#8217;re looking for a new drummer as well.

Oakland-based sludge metal band, Hellbeard (I guess &#8220;Sweetbeard&#8221; was already taken).
If you&#8217;re looking for a show to go to tonight, or looking for some new bands, then you&#8217;ll want to go checkout Hellbeard. Shoegaze / sludge rock is something I just kind of got into the past year or so, so pardon me if this post sounds semi-retarded, but I dig the way these guys really layer on the sludge. The vocals are probably the heaviest I&#8217;ve heard for this type of music, and they manage to keep it &#8220;ambient&#8221; and &#8220;hypnotic&#8221; in some parts without sacrificing any of their manhood.
The band is finishing an 8-song album that looks like it will be released sometime this year, two tracks of which are available online. From their myspace page:
We are waiting for the final touches to be done on our CD, which includes 8 brand new songs that really define the ...]]></description>

Another one our favorite local east bay Swedish bands is Vomblast. They have that deep, dark east bay Swedish sound of doom many of us crave when we&#8217;re waiting for the world to end. They don&#8217;t yet have a profile page that I know of, perhaps they don&#8217;t yet have social networking in the east bay Sweden.
Vomblast was playing the first time I ever went to Burnt Ramen&#8230;maybe that&#8217;s why I keep going back there. As long as they keep having bands from the east bay Sweden play there, I will keep going.
Their bass player had to use a bass she just borrowed a day earlier (for some reason she didn&#8217;t have the bass she had been practicing with for the last month), but you would never know it from listening!
Anyway, here is the video, complete with such ancient classic songs as &#8220;ShitStorm&#8221; and several others:

Metalcore hasn&#8217;t really ever been my thing.  I&#8217;ve found a majority of it to be stale and repetitive, but I found something different in San Rafael band Ashkira.  Their catchy and melodic tunes are enough to make any Lamb of God fan faint, and their heaviness could make any Parkway Drive fan weak in the knees.  Even if you don&#8217;t identify yourself as a fan of Lamb of God or Parkway Drive, Ashkira are definitely worth checking out anyway.
Bassist/Vocalist David Minhondo&#8217;s delivers vocals that remind me of any other metalcore vocalist, but there&#8217;s something in them that makes it sound more real; it&#8217;s raw and relentless.  They just released their debut, The Honor of Defeat, in 2009.  Ashkira have created a unique offering, in a genre where several fans are drowning in a generic sea of core.  Expect to see them playing some shows in the greater Bay Area for ...]]></description>

I used to work as an usher at Bill Graham concerts for over two and a half decades. I worked at the Warfield, the Kabuki, The Fillmore, Wolfgang&#8217;s, the Old Waldorf, the Greek Theater and many other venues. I got to see almost every major touring band you could think of: The Stones, The Who, The Dead, Metallica, U2, Tom Petty, Santana, and countless others over the years. One of my favorite privileges was getting to see bands when they were still playing at really tiny clubs, before they later become coliseum-fillers. Getting to see a band&#8217;s very first public gig is even more of a privilege.

A few weeks ago, at Thee Parkside, I was lucky enough to catch the first gig of newly-formed San Francisco crust/death metal band, Vastum. 
 &#8220;wow&#8221;

I&#8217;d like to welcome the newest contributor to Bay Area Metal Scene, a person who we&#8217;ll simply call Roseman. I befriended Roseman through myspace some time back (yes, some people actually like myspace), and it didn&#8217;t take long to notice that he had what seemed to be just about every underground metal/rock band from the Bay Area on video &#8211; good video (all things considered for a bootleg, that is)! Luckily for me, Roseman said he was down to share some of those videos on BAMS, so here we are in a little column we&#8217;ll be bringing to you as often as we can, called Sounds of the Underground. Thanks Roseman and cheers!
-DS
I love seeing live metal bands at house shows or warehouse parties, and there are plenty of those here in the East bay! Check out Neurotoxicity from Oakland playing at Victory Warehouse 2.26.2010.

		<description><![CDATA[Local music wiz and Meshuggah fan Max Karon has made what is quite possibly the best quality Meshuggah-inspired mash-up I&#8217;ve ever heard. What is it about Meshuggah that makes people want to do these remix / mash-ups? After listening to the Spice Girls cover, check out the rest of his tunes in the player. Guy&#8217;s got skills!

Okay, so it&#8217;s not exactly Meshuggah, but take the heavitude of 7-string guitars, use some polyrhythmic beats and add the vocal tracks of the Spice Girls&#8217; song, Wannabe, and you get the idea. Yes, there have been quite a few Meshuggah-inspired remixes, but none of them ever recorded with original material. Bravo Max, Bravo.

What ever makes you think of really fast and technical death metal with flavors of Progressive Metal. Some of these bands are signed, some are not.

		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t remember the last time I was stoked about a new metal band coming out of Germany. Usually I&#8217;ll get an email from a German band saying, &#8220;Hey, check us out! We&#8217;re German (insert metal genre here)!&#8221; Of course, I&#8217;ll usually listen to their music because I&#8217;m a sucker, but my first impression is always the same: they sound like the villains from the Big Lebowski decided to start a mediocre metal band.
Obscura obviously deserve some recognition as a new global death metal band. Their style is a blend of new and old &#8211; almost what a modern Death might sound like today. Even some of their guitar riffs project a Death and Cynic vibe, and the fret-less bass most certainly adds to the feeling. For some reason, reverting to some tried and true techniques make them stand-out from the modern death metal &#8220;core&#8221; scene.

		<description><![CDATA[Kids these days. When they&#8217;re not playing their xboxes and their facebooks and their skateboarding, they&#8217;re forming shredding metal bands like The Wrath of Vesuvius. The band, just signed to Abal Records, hails from the Sacramento area and has been playing shows up and down the valley and will continue with more shows in February and March. Their sound is a kind of blend of modern death metal and deathcore, although judging by their picture you&#8217;d think they were more of an alternative rock band.
Check out the song Declaring a Possession on their myspace page if you&#8217;re in the mood to hear some shreddery.
