MISERY INJECTION

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010 at 12:30pm by

Earlier this month, we commemorated 9/11 the way any true patriot should — by going to the Brooklyn stop of Despised Icon’s farewell tour. Highlights of the evening included watching a bouncer threaten to beat the shit out of a 16 year old kid in a DI jersey who tried to sneak into the show, Vince and I getting drunk and doing the Panteradactyl all night, spotting the single ugliest girl we’ve ever seen in our lives (no joke, she looked kinda like this with tits), and, oh yeah, excellent sets from Despised Icon, Misery Index, and Revocation.

While we’re sad that you couldn’t all be there to share in the ridiculousness with us, we’re glad that our pals at Metal Injection were on-hand to capture some of the action. Here, for example, is an excellent video of Misery Index performing “We Never Come in Peace” and “Theocracy.”

You can also watch some killer footage of Misery Index performing “Heirs to Thievery” here. And I know that the MI dudes were filming during Despised Icon’s set, so hopefully we’ll get some footage of that soon, too.

      How do you know he wasn’t just doing cymbal grabs the whole time? WTF? Who mixed this?

        This fuckup is only on the second video. I guess it was only an accident then… but it’s just hard to believe that they left it this way for at least 2 songs…

        Highly annoying though :)

    I actually (tried to, anyway) went and everything, mainly to see Revocation, but Europa actually started a show on time and by the time I got there Misery Index was already apparently halfway through their set. So I just went across town to see DECEASED. It looks like that place was full of annoying wiggers and scene kids anyway, I feel sorry for Misery Index having to see idiots crabdancing during their set.

    Good to see that Mike Harisson (one of MI founding members) is back in the fold by the way !!!

      shit thats MIke “My Untold Apocalypse” Harrison? I wouldn’t have made the connection!

      I just found out Sparky left the band and was kind of floored by the news. I’m wondering whats going on within the band? I know it’s Jason’s baby, but it kind of appears that he’s taking a less active role. His songwriting credits on each release have shrunk noticeably since Discordia. It really almost seems like the Mark & Adam show now. Hell, Mark is even in the center stage in this video!

        its Darin Moris not Mike Harrison.

          word, its Darin from Criminal Element. Just spoke to him after the show tonight and was like….you are not Mike. hahha

          The band killed it though. Current lineup/stage configuration was awesome. Should videos/links up on my blog soon.
