Ocean of Blood @ MyEvo Clubhouse Studio, Pandan Indah

Headed to Pandan Indah around evening and had already missed half the bands of the day. Went to catch Ezzart perform, and realized Hanafi and Mukhriz were also performing with Effigy Eclipse, but I had already missed their set. DAMMIT. Was kind of bummed out.


Headed up the two flights of stairs right after Final Chapter finished their set, and stayed to catch Better Than Her, who were pretty damn awesome. Really solid, really tight. The drummer, I could tell, was getting a bit exhausted but it was all good. He still managed to keep his beat and didn't stray away from the songs. Nice stuff.



Next up was Kiss the Fallen, a hardcore band with a male-fronted vocalist/guitarist. Pretty rare to see hxc bands like this in KL. With a little more practise, they can definitely be a good band. Right now, they're still rough around the edges.


Ardy was behind the DJ-mics being the emcee behind the studio, and his voice was so much like a radio station guy it was pretty hilarious. Haha. Him and Ijam kept making fun of Afwan as he set up with Sensory after another band, teasing him on the fact that he would be singing, and relating him with Restraint and being old. XD Ardy and Ijam were playing tracks from Backstreet Boys and George Michael between every band, which was pretty awesome. Kept introducing everybody to the crowd: "And we have Celine Beatburns in the house today, give it up for Celine".... LOL, as if everyone knew who I was -_-
He got all my friends thinking I was performing! HAHA. Bodoh.


Next up, Sensoryyyyy. Awesome stuff, after disbanding for over four years, they finally performed again, and it was tighter than one would expect from a newly reformed band. They played three songs, one Lamb of God cover (Laid to Rest) and it was not disappointing. Particularly surprised by Afwan's vocals; he was really good! And Ezzart's showmanship (sowmansip :P) was awesomeeee. :) GOOD JOBBBB!! Loved them.


Headed to eat opposite Noisy and realized the vegan convention was finished by the time I went to Noisy Studio. So disappointed!!! Nguhh! Couldn't get my zines back from Arwith. Sigh. A good night though.


Celine loves watching her friends perform.
