I’M IN LOVE
Friday, July 24th, 2009 at 10:30am by Axl RosenbergMomma always told me that if I ever met “the one,” I’d know right away. Even my father – who makes me look like a sunny, optimistic, outgoing person – said that he knew right away he wanted to spend the rest of his life with my mom. But I never really believed it, and definitely never thought it would happen to me.
But then last night changed everything. I knew within minutes, if not seconds, that I had found “the one.”
‘Cause last night I smoked out of a vaporizer for the first time. And my life will never, ever be the same. I’m just not going to be able to go back to bongs and pipes. This is it. I am now a one drug-apparatus man.
Thanks to Sean Z. from Daath for hooking that shit up. There weren’t nearly enough people at the show last night, and Sean had some mic/monitor issues, but Daath still played like they were headlining Madison fucking Square Garden (and Sean managed to sing while doing windmills, which I’ve never seen before). Eyal Levi has fucking pneumonia and a cracked rib, and he was still jumping all over the place. And Emil “Things Go Better with Coke” Werstler is almost spastic enough to be in a mathcore band. Plus, his solos are the shit.
Goatwhore killed it, too. I really can’t say enough good things about these bands. You can find remaining tour dates here; definitely go check ‘em out if you can. And bring your vaporizer.
Here’s some Daath and Goatwhore videos to kick off your morning.

Vaporizer, huh? Was it by any chance a Volcano? If not, you owe it to yourself to try it, because it’s the ultimate experience.
Indeed it is… Volcano’s are amazing…. That’s all i got for now
I always wanted to try on of those things… Unfortunately(?), I have been clean for quite some time now and have not had the opportunity.
Regarding the show, I missed it when they were through Baltimore a few weeks back. Sounds like it was sick. Now I am bummed I didn’t go. I guess Abigail Williams was the reason I didn’t. Not that I don’t like them, because they have a decent sound from a musical standpoint, but I’m just not too sold on the prospect of the constant screecho-vocals in concert. If they add some more vocal variety for their next record I’ll be all over it. Their drummer Samus is pretty decent.
can’t wait to see daath and goatwhore next friday at central illinois metal fest
Meng, that Daath/Goat”whoore” show was so FUCKING brutal. AND YEAH SEAN Z. DOING WINDMILLS WHILE SINGING WAS SOMETHING I can’t believe we haven’t seen that yet! Especially from Corpsegrinder, who held the best windmill title up until the Daath show! Goatwhore drummer still pulling double duty on this one? Abbie Williams was damn good as well, although I could take or leave SWAATS…hot chick guitarist though!
And yes, vaporizers are a life changer indeed. I recommend the Vapir One digital vaporizer, it’s pretty pricey, but so are bongs and hookahs and all the best apparati.
I had one of those wooden box vapes. Fell off a table and broke but me and that vape had some great times together…rest in peace brother.
Cephalic Carnage also knows whats up, that song “Vaporized” they put out a few years back.
Yes, the vaporizer is the way to go.
Indeed! So much cleaner and more awesome. Fucking expensive, though.
Yeah, why the fuck was that show so empty last night?? Seemed like I was one of the few people there enjoying Daath…
The best vaporizers in the world are the Extreme (www.arizer.com) and the Silver Surfer, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Those Vapir things are dogshit, Vapor Space needs to shut the fuck up.
When I saw this in my Reader, I was like, ‘oh cool, someones getting married!’
Thanks for providing me with my first laugh of the day!
Great, another write up about smoking. I had no idea Axl smoked weed, when did this shit start…….
Vapir isn’t shit. It’s only about $150 and it definitely gets the job done if you aren’t willing to shell out your rent for a Volcano!
as an asthmatic, the volcano is where it’s at.. however, i’ll never swear off a pipe, as the high is def different, and thus it’s nice to switch up.
couldnt go
Meh..vaporizers are cool, but it’s a bit of a novelty. You can keep your vaporizers, custom bubbler “pieces” and flavored blunt wraps…all I need is a pack of Zig Zag’s.
bah – roll a joint and smoke it. Bongs and all that crap – good for coffee table center pieces and sex toys.
Daath and Goatwhore were great. The place was EMPTY..never seen a place that empty. What happened to Goatwhores bassist ? The girl from the 800 word title band was playing and then the guy from daath. First band wasn’t all that good , but Abysmal Dawn were decent.
obviously, you’re not a bowler…
