Evan Brewer was a great start to this show and he played just as amazing as his cd. His contribution on the new The Faceless will be very interesting and i'm excited to hear what he does.

This band had a big step up from their stint with Atheist in March. They sounded terrible at that show (probably because of the mixing). This time they were better and fit into this progressive line-up of the night even though they had their death metal inspired moments.

Last Chance to Reason

Coded to Fail
Taking Control
Temp Files
The Prototype
Portal

Dead Letter Circus were a good mix up after LC2R and had a higher vocal range and made the show a little better because of the shift. These Aussies put on a good show and have pretty good music.

Dead Letter Circus

The Mile
Lines
One Step
Here We Divide
Space on the Wall
Next in Line

Intronaut was band i've been told to listen but never got a chance before the show. They were an exceptional introduction to AAL and had a heavy prog band and were probably the second best of the night. This band will be a research project for me soon.

Intronaut

Elegy
Vernon
The Literal Black Cloud
Core Relations
Australopithecus

A year to the day since SS '10 I finally get to see Animals as Leaders again

. This band has some of the most dark and beautiful music I have ever heard in my years of listening to metal. This band had the biggest crowd in Hell I have ever been a part of at the Masquerade. No doubt they will be back and get to use the Heaven stage to accommodate all the people showing up.

Does the Masquerade have 2 different rooms for shows?

Yeah. Toxic Holocaust is in Heaven, the larger stage. This was in Hell, the smaller stage. Hell is SOOO much better than Heaven. I have no idea why Toxic Holocaust is playing in Heaven though; they'll probably get 50 people max.

I was thinking about going to this show as well. Intronaut was amazing when I saw them with Mastodon so I figured I'd try to see them again.

I went to the Greensboro date. It was AMAZING. If you have a chance to go to this, do it.

Oh hey, Colton: I was stalking your facebook photos and I saw that you know Joe Page. I see him at Publix from time to time, cool dude. He told me he was going to this show.
