02.12.16 | OK listening to Exoplanet on the tube, pretty annoyed at myself for not doing so before. Crushing. |

02.12.16 | Don't forget Intrinsic, imo it's just as good as the others |

02.12.16 | Go to enjoy the vibe. I sadly missed my chance to watch The Contortionist, but TesseracT is all about the vibe.
Also, TesseracT had the nicest smelling moshpit (if you can call it that) I've ever been in. Closed my eyes at some point during the first song and when I opened them again I was literally surrounded by women. |
MercuryToHell
02.12.16 | That sounds perfect for a Friday night.
I guess with both the bands latest albums there's more of an ambience than technical heaviness so I don't really know what to expect! |

02.12.16 | They were playing in Leeds last Sunday and I would have gone if some friends were willing |
BeyondCosby
02.12.16 | Yeah I saw them on their North America Tour.
Contortionist killed it. Mike Lessard has the most bizarre stage presence ever but he's such a talented dude. It was eerie, the way he floated around the stage, but it totally helped add to the vibe.
TesseracT was really groovy and, when I saw them, Daniel Tompkin nailed the vocals. You're in for a good night man. They played a good amount from Polaris and Altered State, and parts of "Concealing Fate". |

02.12.16 | I've always wondered how the contortionist's new singer handles their older material.
Because I keep forgetting YouTube exists |

Tell me more about this.

02.12.16 | I've seen The Contortionist 2 times during the Exoplanet tour cycle, which was sick. I saw them one other time during the Intrinsic album cycle but that was right when the old singer left and Michael was just the "fill in" guy at the time. I thought he did a pretty good job. I haven't seen them since Language came out though. But I've seen plenty of live videos. Never seen Tesserect. |

Cheers for the feedback guys, really excited now! |

02.13.16 | Mike's stage presence was, agreed, totally weird, really kind of unsettling the way he just stares into the crowd and bops his head during the atmospheric parts - but he gets a bit Puciato the way he screams.
As for TesseracT, they blew my fucking mind, Dan was absolutely on point, the choice of songs was unreal, and when they brought out Martin Grech to do 'Hexes' my brain nearly melted. An INSANELY good performance, so so tight and super fun.
Although it reminded me how much more I should listen to 'One'. |

02.13.16 | tesseract are so boring live. |
SitarHero
02.15.16 | TesseracT are boring if you think their music is boring. But the performances bring out the best in the music. Dan has pretty great stage presence and a great voice and the rest of the band is virgin butthole tight. |
