2010 in concerts
as i mentioned before, i’m not to keen on making an end of year list - i tend to forget things, or haven’t heard a lot of records i should have heard. so not a ‘real’ 2010-list, but i’m safe about these things:
favorite live show:
liturgy (incubate festival, little devil, tilburg)
encredibly ferocious, adventurous and athmospheric set, making me look forward to their upcoming album on thrill jockey, and their show on roadburn 2011. what swans could have been like if they grew up listening to drones and black metal.
to give an idea: this video was shot a few days earlier, during the same tour.
other shows i enjoyed from start to finish (in chronological order)
beautiful band (bunker, brussel + kinky star, gent)
om (grand mix, tourcoing)
pillars and tongues (clos des milliardaires, brussel)
the doozer (kraak festival, netwerk, aalst)
hellvete (slachthuis, gent)
eyehategod (minus one, gent)
tomoko sauvage (les ateliers claus, brussel)
liars (botanique, brussel)
richard youngs (pauluskerk, tilburg)
drekka, vollmar, elephant micah and annelies monseré (bluesanct fest, rachels cafe, bloomington)
holy sons (the bishop, bloomington)
trembling bells and alasdair roberts (le guess who festival, utrecht)
swans (ab, brussel)
show that should have been stopped by one of the promotors, or the audience
bügsküll (villa drashhoek, gent)
best albums
ask me in 2014, ok?
