I had done my homework before the gig, and<br \/>\n\u00a0 was expecting a video show in the background, since they express their pride<br \/>\n\u00a0 over this element of their shows on their website. To my surprise, however,<br \/>\n\u00a0 no video. In my opinion a technical difficulty, since their very own VJ Jeroen<br \/>\n\u00a0 w\u00e1s present on stage.<!--more--><br \/>\n\u00a0 Back to the gig. NWD combine heavy guitar work with modern-day dance music,<br \/>\n\u00a0 which, I have to admit, is not something most bands dare to do. The audience<br \/>\n\u00a0 didn\u2019t really seem to warm up to them, though I don\u2019t think this was<br \/>\n\u00a0 the bands\u2019 fault entirely. They did seem a bit awkward on stage, not moving<br \/>\n\u00a0 an inch, possibly due to the fact that, as I said, they are used to being accompanied<br \/>\n\u00a0 by a video show. Other than that, both lighting and sound were badly mixed in<br \/>\n\u00a0 this venue, and I got the feeling this was holding the band back.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 Next up was the main act, Deathstars. The audience was very receptive towards<br \/>\n\u00a0 the band. Sadly, the lighting was bad, and there was plenty of room for improvement<br \/>\n\u00a0 with the sound. After a few songs Whiplasher Bernadottes cordless microphone<br \/>\n\u00a0 actually seemed to break down and had to be replaced with a regular mic.<br \/>\n\u00a0 The band seemed to be holding back quite a bit performance-wise, which might<br \/>\n\u00a0 be a result of a change in line-up. The band\u2019s own drummer Bone W Machine<br \/>\n\u00a0 was unable to join the band on this particular tour, and was therefore replaced<br \/>\n\u00a0 by Adrian Erlandsson (Cradle of Filth, At the Gates, The Haunted, Nemhain) for<br \/>\n\u00a0 the second part of this tour. This show was Adrians\u2019 second gig with the<br \/>\n\u00a0 band, and at times this was painfully obvious.<br \/>\n\u00a0 The show was a real crowd-pleaser though. There was plenty of interaction with<br \/>\n\u00a0 the audience and as usual Whiplasher Bernadotte linked the songs with his eccentric<br \/>\n\u00a0 talks.<br \/>\n\u00a0 After leaving the stage the crowd demanded an encore, and the band obliged with<br \/>\n\u00a0 two more songs. When they left the stage again, I felt like I had just seen<br \/>\n\u00a0 a concert that was very good, but could have been great. A shame, and I could<br \/>\n\u00a0 only hope their next concert would be.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 After this Deadcell came onstage. Again, after doing my homework I was expecting<br \/>\n\u00a0 a radiant live show, accompanied by a video show, though I must say at this<br \/>\n\u00a0 point I feared for the video part. And again, the band failed to live up to<br \/>\n\u00a0 the expectations their website gave rise to. The performance was very active,<br \/>\n\u00a0 and singer\/guitarist Marcus Bodine is accompanied by several able dancers, but<br \/>\n\u00a0 the show lacked in positive interaction with the audience. This could be due<br \/>\n\u00a0 to the late hour, the band didn\u2019t get on stage until after midnight. Also,<br \/>\n\u00a0 a large portion of the audience had already left. The remaining audience seemed<br \/>\n\u00a0 to be enjoying themselves, though. When Deadcell left the stage the party was<br \/>\n\u00a0 far from over, but it was time for me to leave to catch the last train home,<br \/>\n\u00a0 and I wish I had been more sorry about this.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supports: Next Waste Dimension, Deadcell; Venue: De Kelder, Amersfoort (Netherlands) By: Petra Ghuijs \u00a0 Next Waste Dimension was first up.
