I saw them live two years ago when they toured in Singapore together with Defiled and Lacerate and they fucking ripped the place apart! They were savage and brutal as fuck live. Manila is going to be destroyed once more.

I attended this show last night and it was truly unfortunate that it occured on a Tuesday night. Unfortunaate because the audience that attended was not the usual number of hordes of trve metalheads that religously attended an Insane Bazooka event. I felt sorry for those who were not there as they missed a chance to see a truly top-notch performance from a world-class act in GxSxDx.
They maybe Japanese but their looks (Behemoth-ish kvlt skirts) and musical execution (Vader-meets-Behemoth) is Polish in delivery. The only quiet moment during their set was the intro portion. After that, all hell broke loose as GxSxDx went on a metallic onslaught that could only be described as a musical tornado wrecking havoc upon a hapless crowd. The band's frontliners were very choreographed and orchestrated in the way that they rotated the stage, alternating vocal duties and changed their stage positions very frquently. The drummer was effortless in pounding our skulls with a continous barrage of fills, blastbeats and cymbal-hits. When the band announced the end of their set, the audience was united in asking for one more song to which GxSxDx gladly obliged.
Ribcage mentioned that it's as if he witnessed a CD being performed live with the awesome and effortless performance of the band. I'd probably say it was like watching a DVD being performed live. GxSxDx's stage presence was something else. They're probably the best among the Japanese bands that Insane Bazooka has brought to our shores. I hope Alvin can bring them back in the near future along with their CDs and merch (they only brought one shirt design and it was too plain looking).
No pictures of this event from me as I left my camera at home. Though Eltorrente and Mr. Tripalium took pics of the show. I'll see if the grainy videos I took would be worth uploading to Youtube. Nice to see and talk with the other IDP forumers there - the aforementioned Ribcage, Eltorrente, Mr. Tripalium (on vacation from the desert) and Gregor. Great performances from the support bands as well - Ancient Warlord, BiF, Resurrected and Mass Hypnosia.

Indeed, it was headbanging bliss! Great gig. Like Madtyrant said, it was nice to chat with fellow IDP forumers Mr. Tripalium, Ribcage and Gregor. I'll try to post some pics later.

That's the risk of a gig held on a working week day. Same thing when they played in Singapore two years ago with Defiled and Lacerate. The turn out was absolute shit.
I'm looking forward for their release under Pulverised Records. It should be killer!
By the way, what merchandise did they bring over?

By the way, what merchandise did they bring over? The only one shirt design they brought was too plain for my taste. It had a small coat-of-arms-like print with 'God Send Death' spelled out in the top left portion in the front. On the back it had 'God Send Death' and 666 printed in big bold letters. |

Plus it helps that he's a total pro -- armed to the teeth, in fact. We never really thought photography on this level was 'needed' in the underground... Back then, the only good pictures you'd see were shots by aficionados like Al Dimalanta with his SLR sniper kit or Zinesters with their gen one digicams, or quite recently: Lito and his killer portfolio of Insane Bazooka shows and SGDF!  But we do see a lot of near-professional level stills of shit Rakista bands and their jejemates, sponsored by trend-wear and SMC  |
