They have a lot of little odd meter changes that are so subtle, you'd only know it if you were a musician actually learning the songs. Or if your ear is that good. I learned a 6th song, "Prey for Death", but we never played it because we never had a chance to rehearse it. Epicurean is not metalcore nor does it sound anything like Unearth. lol! If we did, maybe our paycheck would be a lot fuckin bigger. lol! Warbringer had a short set because I had exactly 16 hours to learn and be good at their songs. 5 was all my brain could handle.

Like you, I was exhausted that night as well, so it may have just been a recipe for disaster. See you at the Opeth show.

I'm friends with Warbringer, they're great fucking dudes, they put on a great show, I've seen them a bunch and have smoked weed with them a couple times :p Amazing show, I'm not huge into Exodus but it was great seeing Warbringer again, and Kreator! Epic fucking shit. I saw this tour in NYC, I thought Kreator had a great live prescence, especially with the epicness of saying “THE KREATOR IS BACK” as a way of making the Kreator into a being….

I was the kid in the very front in the Pleasure to Kill shirt and dark hair (real specific there) who seemed to be one of the only ones headbanging to Warbringer, they should have gotten more respect from the crowd. How metal is puking and continuing the song without missing a beat? Kreator was amazing, but I have to give it to Exodus, they were definitely the better act. Even if I got crushed by two 200lb stagedivers during their set. I was at this show!

I left because I spent three hours at the zoo in 90+ degree heat, two hours on my bike, and then four hours on my feet at a metal concert. Not to mention the fact that I had already seen Kreator a buttload of times. Plus, I mainly went to see Exodus. I don't think you went to Tesla to see the opening band. Thanks for the Epicurean tip. I'll have to dig out their last album. It didn't leave any kind of impression on me nor did their live shoiw. But I'm always willing to give a band another chance. Hope to see you at Opeth next week.

I was at this show, too. If you remember, I was the one that left the Tesla show early in Feb., only to catch shit from yours truly. I've seen Kreator countless times over the years, and I can honestly say this is the tightest I've ever seen them. You missed a killer set, and I wish you could have hung around for the entire show. Exodus put a HUGE grin on my face. I agree with you 100%: That was the biggest pit I have EVER seen in a club. Period. I've been going to shows for 25+ years, and that pit was one for the record books. Amazing. As for Epicurean, you were way off on the Unearth comparison. They're closer to a cross between Dream Theater and the finer elements of the current death/thrash movement. I was impressed enough to download their album when I got home, and was glad I did. The kids can play, and the guitars are absolutely shredding. Give 'em a second chance. I'll be at the Opeth show next Tuesday, and I will NOT be leaving that show early. Not a chance in hell.

Their studio albums don't even compare. I think Warbringer made a lot of new fans on this tour, but their drummer shouldn't have broken his arm or whatever. I didn't enjoy Belphegor at all.

I saw almost all of Epicureans set and I thought they were pretty decent, if not great. Warbringer was awesome but they also only played 5 songs. In fact, they played the same amount of songs as Epicurean, but shorter, so Epicureans set was actually a little longer. Exodus was definitely top notch and they had a brutal pit going in there. The only thing I really disagree with is that I think Kreator blew all the other bands out of the water. I've never been a huge fan of Kreator, but I thought their live set was amazing. It's actually kind of disappointing because they sounded so much better live than on their albums, so listening to their studio work just is a let down because I know it could sound so much better. All in all I thought it was a fantastic show. I caught this show in San Diego and most of what you said is pretty accurate.
