October Fest - Saturday 27 October 2001
Gabba gabba, hey ho - let's go. As yer man said.
Taking us away in fine style are Seraphim. The 'Phim are a four piece (drums, guitar, bass, lead shouting) who I suspect may have a couple of records by Limp Bizkit, or The Chilli Peppers in their possession. Having said that, they're very good at what they're doing - what I assume was an ever so slightly shaky starting track was quickly forgotten as they battered their way through the rest of their set with a real sense of anger and determination.The set highlight was "Oblivion heights" - as good a chorus song as ever you'd want. Visually, they're something of a treat, too - Darth Maul on lead guitar, a singer whose stage persona put me in mind of nothing so much as Henry Rollins in a hawaiian shirt(without the surfeit of neck, obviously) , and on bass, one of the very finest heads of hair you'll ever see.
