LIVE, TONIGHT IN PERSON, IT’S THE RED CHORD!

Friday, March 12th, 2010 at 3:30pm by

I think I’ve mentioned like a bajillion times already that my favorite song on my favorite album of 2009, The Red Chord’s Fed Through the Teeth Machine, is “Hour of Rats.” And because sometimes life is a bitch, I haven’t gotten to see the band since that album was released, and, consequently, have yet to see a live performance of the song. But those hep cats at Metal Injection got some live footage of the band during a recent stop on the MetalSucks sponsored Burgers & Bowling Tour, and so now at least I can live vicariously through a camera.

This is also the first live footage we’ve seen of the band since original drummer Mike Justian returned to the fold. Needless to say, it sounds like he’s doing a pretty good job.

You can watch more footage from this show at Metal Injection.

And there are still three dates left on the Burgers & Bowling tour! Get ‘em after the jump! If you have a chance to go see these guys live, you definitely need to!

    You guys should really CREDIT THE GUY WHO FILMED IT.

    I’ve said this a hundred times on his website, this dude has been filming bands since 2000-01, and has plenty of videos, and it would be good exposure for bothe the bands and him if you credited him and his links.

    Demoralizer into Hour of Rats tears off cocks. Best solo ever.

    Truly, a great album. I downloaded it a while back (legally, off of Metal Blade’s iPool), but never got around to listening to it until yesterday, due to iPod space limitations. Fuck is it good.

    I know that guy personally, and he does an AMAZING job doing videos. He puts in alot of effort into his work, and deserves alot of credit. So give him the credit, because he is truly one of a kind here.

    This band from near me called FX Zero is playing that Jersey show on the “Burgers and Bowling” tour (probably the absolute first band to take the stage). They are pretty interesting, especially for a very young band; kinda spazzy tech stuff:

    Goddamn, nailed it. I like how they slowed down the ending.
