      Saw that show in London. When Midnight started I was by the bar in the back. By the time the 2nd song ended I was right up against the stage. Hopefully they will re-schedule their Toronto show!

    I saw these guys with Abbath and Obituary a few months ago and my god, what an experience. Them and Devil Master were my first time listening seeing them live and I became instant fans of both bands.

      Andrewoid95 I was up in front at the Santa Ana show in Cali and sadly we couldn’t hear any of the vocals for Devil master and midnight :(

    • @Andrewoid95
      @Andrewoid95 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That sucks. /: actually though, that does remind me that DM’s vocals were a little buried under the mix. Aside from that, both them and Midnight stole the entire show for me.

      Holy shit, I didn't get to see Midnight on that tour (and I'm still upset over it) but I saw Devil Master on tour with Power Trip, Creeping Death, & High on Fire and was blown away by Devil Master. Can't wait for Midnight and Devil Master to go on tour again.

    What surprises me is that he is such a relaxed, funny and cool guy. I think this is why his band is so good. And he is right about the vinyl only collect it in black. Hearing midnight gives me always a good time

    • @michby
      @michby 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I love him. He’s so down to earth and normal and then he plays this wild raucous fun metal that makes me want to BREAK SHIT! I hope they’ll make it to my hometown soon. I bet seeing Midnight with Kreator and Obituary was a trip. I’d see them with anyone honestly.

  • @Amishparadise69
    @Amishparadise69 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I saw midnight back in October with obituary, and holy shit!! They blew my fucking mind! They were amazing! I was super happy that I got a chance to see them. I’ve heard so much about them and only listened to them a few times but didn’t pay to much attention to them but seeing them in person was something else. Definitely a band that I keep in my playlist now.

  • @derekwitt6948

    Great interview you conducted, always interesting to see what musicians have to say. Also as a big Midnight fan it was cool to get some insight in to what Athenar has for the future of Midnight. Really looking forward to the new record and seeing them on the road again

  • @sommelierofstench

    • @TheCcmarine
      @TheCcmarine 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I totally agree. Maybe he doesn't want that much attention but for how long Midnight has been around and on zine covers and splits with other known bands they still stay pretty much underground! I think too its kinda good they stay less known for the simple fact that all these hipster kids will be rockin Midnight tshirts and it might take away from the whole atmosphere they have. Idk

    • @FrameworksPhoto

      I'm 13, I saw these dudes in 2022 with Kreator And Mercyful Fate. I was like "whoa, these masked dudes are cool."
      And then I wanted to see them again, and I saw them in Baltimore last August.
      And now they are my favorite band.

I've got all the full lengths on vinyl and cd(plus a couple on cassette.) I've seen Athenar and crew live twice now and I plan on seeing them every time they come to town

I don’t remember how I first came across Midnight, but it was only about 3-5 years ago. No one told me about him, I’m old and no one my age likes that stuff! lol. I like BlackNRoll. Bands like Usurper from way back got me into it!

      Obssy hey man. I’m not trying to be a dick. My comment was more on the host saying “of you haven’t heard of them...” - I hate that confrontational / clickbait / shaming approach: not aimed at you - that said they’ve been out in the spotlight for awhile. Ads and reviews and cover on big zines. Big tours this year like decibel beer fest and obituary and electric wizard. But I’m too old to troll. Now you have found them and they rule. Killer sound and aesthetic

    • @DennisDom
      @DennisDom 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      2 things could be construed as plagiarizing, For one, there's only gonna be one Midnight in Heavy Metal and that's (John Patrick Jr. McDonald RIP) the original singer of Crimson Glory. Although these guys name their band that. 2nd, Don't really care them imitating the Mighty MENTORS and the hoods. as El Duce invented that look, an no other band has dared to copy that! but I'll check em out now. But don't ever think a second a Metal Elitist would ever fail hard because of not knowing a band like this one. There's a reason I haven't fucking hear of them! and now that Brian signed them to his label maybe I will now.

      Athenar played bass temporarily with destructor when they were old and almost done. His former band boulder had a song about the former bassist of destructor dave holocaust being stabbed to death on new years ever here in Cleveland called dave holocaust was a lucky man. They were initially pissed off about it but then after meeting him and talking decided he was an awesome dude. Destructor played thw battle of the worst bands formerly as "ouiphucter". Maximum destruction was such a great song. I also loved necrophagia season of the dead and got to meet killjoy in southern Ohio a few times. Athenar was among my circle of friends but we only hung out once without others around, i drove him to see primus and soundgarden at the phantasy theater for about 50 people and he paid for my ticket. We also got some wednesday mr chicken deals once in a while when they were practicing for boulder. Lol nicest guy, so knowledgeable about music.

    You look at him in all his outfit and you can still imagine people saying "that's that evil, satanic, murderous metal monster. Lock up your kids and stay away from him". Just like it was in the 1980s with Motorhead or Venom and the likes. But of course it's an image and some people don't get it. Now he's sitting there and you can tell that he's an intelligent, humble and friendly guy. And especially today in this extremely pc world (or at least wannabe pc world) it shocks conservatives and hipsters alike.
    It's like the world turns back to those oppressive times and hypocrites are deciding what's right and what's wrong. It's a crazy world. Again.

    Saw them in Oberhausen, Germany where the drummer was all fucked up on stage and Nabbe ( Skullhog, Acid Deathtrip, Insult) ended up playing the drums. It was a legendary show. One of those shows where everybody says they were there but they weren’t. Lol. th-cam.com/video/J0hQUlXPqCQ/w-d-xo.html

      I think they hide a lot and don't play there so much...I've seen them play in Chicago maybe 4 or 5 times in the last few years....I'm old, cranky, and picky so it's the only thing worth leaving the house for...leaving my Drewcifur's Sanctuary that is...
