Jesus fuck what a proper and serious bacchanalia in the most ancient tradition! Really enjoyed your account. Downstate Illinois (SoIll) was a frequent stomping grounds of mine for years and the forests, cliffs, and hollows have such an awesome witchy vibe.
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! We used to do it more often but we hit so many shows and since we had to travel back from other cities often it just became a thing we saved for when we got back from festivals. We'll definitely do more recaps of the festivals we hit since those generally have more of a story to them.
I call it Heavy Metal Heaven, & was hooked after my first. The lineup is always killer. I too recommend camping-showers, ice, cheap water & good food always. & I appreciate the shout out! ~Mr. Meatsuit
Necrotic Nick- I kept saying it was like going to summer camp, the fair, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and a metalfest all at once. It was a fucking blast. I think we're formulating a plan to maybe get a cabin there next year if we go. Someone already sold me on the breakfast foods there. Not a problem on the shout out, man lol !
Necrotic Nick- It was a blast. Definitely one of the wildest shows I've been to so far. I think there's a good chance of us coming back next year after this experience.
Necrotic Nick- Hey, man! It was cool running into you as well. It might still be awhile yet before I get to your CD but I will get to it. Dude, that's wild the shit starter was your camping neighbor. I bet he got the fuck out of there early the next day lol
This year was my 3rd time going to FTA but my first time camping there because well, I hate camping. This being said, I highly recommend getting an air mattress and tent and roughing it. The campsite has showers, the vendors serve breakfast, and you won't get there late and miss any bands. Plus, all the money you save can be spent on band merch.
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I've been super big on camping but I can see the perks of it at this fest. We might go with a cabin if we go back. I don't want to be to exposed to nature out there lol. The breakfast sounds like a huge perk though. This is definitely all stuff to consider for sure because I'm definitely down to return.
I'm pretty shure that You both would be in love in legendary Obscene Extreme Festival in Czech. Amazing atmosphere. I go ther every year since 2004 ! This year AUTOPSY were there !
It looks like a very fun show with lots of great bands from what you described. Exhumed is definitely one band I want to see live some day. I’ve heard they put on a great show.
Necrotic Nick- I enjoyed pretty much everything about the fest. It was a good mix of underground bands and some solid more established ones and everyone was super cool with one another minus the incidents we brought up. Exhumed is amazing live. I strongly recommend checking them out live sometime.
Necrotic Nick- I not sure what all the issue was with them bringing their gear here was honestly. It may have just been more convenient for them to use someone else's equipment.
How you guy's were around all that drinking and partying and held off drinking at all for the entire weekend, I'll never know lol. Sounds like a wild time!
@@jamminjon8074 I get it. I’m 35 with two young kids, hangovers are the worst. That being said, a six pack never hung me over. Also, give me a weekend away from the kids at a metal festival and I’d be neck deep in beef broth
Jon - about Your story about MORBID ANGEL. I know how You felt, dude. You said "I hope they will play "Dawn of the angry". And they played it ONLY at sound check. In 2000 I have seen in Poland TESTAMENT while promoting their masterpiece "The gathering". And while their soundcheck they played "True believer". And gues what ?! They did NOT played this amazing song during this concert ! I was really angry! Dawn of the angry !
This festival sounds awesome. Also, really cool that Hemorage pulled up. They're from my area of Bay Area, California. I had never heard of them until they pulled up after the At the Gates Slaughter of the Soul anniversary show I saw in Berkeley and started ripping a set. Edit: MORBIKON FUCKING RULES!
Necrotic Nick- It as a blast. That festival knows how to party and keep shit loose and fun, Hemorage was killer though I didn't get a chance to check out any of their merch. Even inside their bus they put on a solid show lol.
Sick video guys. Sounds like you had tons of fun. Wanted to ask if you guys are familiar with Czech thrash band Exorcizphobia? Yesterday they dropped their newest album "Spiritual Exodus" and I think you guys would dig it.
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Dude, it was such an amazing time. I think there's a good chance we're going back. I'm not familiar with that album but I'll try to remember to check it out when I get a chance. Blazing through some stuff for a collection update right now.
OK, You dont heve to answer of course, because it is Your private thing, but I am really curious why You both guys dont drink alcohol ? Some bad experiences from the past ? If I may ask...
You guys are so good together. ❤
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man!
I was at the festival. It was my first ever festival too! It was one to remember!
Jesus fuck what a proper and serious bacchanalia in the most ancient tradition! Really enjoyed your account. Downstate Illinois (SoIll) was a frequent stomping grounds of mine for years and the forests, cliffs, and hollows have such an awesome witchy vibe.
Right on dudes!!!!!
Necrotic Nick- It was a pleasure shooting the shit with you, man! Stoked to check out this doc when it drops!
Yall have to do a video like this everytime you attend a show! I love hearing y'all's stories

This sounds like a great time for sure and it’s apparently about 3 hrs away from where I live. I’m definitely interested in this.
Hell yeah! Glad you guys had fun. I'm bummed that I couldn't make it this year, but next year, it's on. Shoutout to Ian and Necessary Death as well! 🤘
Necrotic Nick- It was a blast. Definitely one of the wildest shows I've been to so far. I think there's a good chance of us coming back next year after this experience.
That Coroner shirt is sick 😎
Excellent video guys! This festival and your experience would make like the best movie ever haha
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Can I have Ryan Reynolds play me in this one? lol
Was a surprise running into you guys, hope you dig that AssassinatoR CD I gave!
Dude who got hit from that fight ended up being my camping neighbor 😬
Necrotic Nick- Hey, man! It was cool running into you as well. It might still be awhile yet before I get to your CD but I will get to it. Dude, that's wild the shit starter was your camping neighbor. I bet he got the fuck out of there early the next day lol
This past year was our second time and already planning for next year. It's a great week! Go Wednesday for early camping and the camp crawl!

You guys would rule to take a trip with , driving or flying
Necrotic Nick- It was a fun trip. Lots of blasting metal and cracking jokes to kill the time.
I'm pretty shure that You both would be in love in legendary Obscene Extreme Festival in Czech. Amazing atmosphere. I go ther every year since 2004 ! This year AUTOPSY were there !
this is how Obscene Extreme looks like : ua-cam.com/video/anh0Kn9nGV4/v-deo.html
It looks like a very fun show with lots of great bands from what you described. Exhumed is definitely one band I want to see live some day. I’ve heard they put on a great show.

"They have no drummer, but dont worry - they have smoker onstage" :) :) :)
Was Pungent Stench not even allowed to bring their equipment on the long flight over to the U.S.?
Necrotic Nick- I not sure what all the issue was with them bringing their gear here was honestly. It may have just been more convenient for them to use someone else's equipment.
The owner of the venue they played the night before drove them down, so it might have been a transportation issue.
How you guy's were around all that drinking and partying and held off drinking at all for the entire weekend, I'll never know lol. Sounds like a wild time!
We don't like hangovers. After I hit 40, it all gives me a headache.

Watching the video now, but this was a tame year at FTA! Keep coming back for more but only invite your cool friends.
Necrotic Nick- I think there's a good chance of us coming back. I don't know if have any cool friends. We're all kinda dorks here lol.
This festival sounds awesome. Also, really cool that Hemorage pulled up. They're from my area of Bay Area, California. I had never heard of them until they pulled up after the At the Gates Slaughter of the Soul anniversary show I saw in Berkeley and started ripping a set.

Fucking WEEDEATER!! Love Dixie Dave is legend..God Luck And Good speed and Jason The Dragon are classic albums
Necrotic Nick- They had an amazing set and I think people could feel Dixie's bass tone the next county over lol.
I hate long drives too nick
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I had to pull over to take my wallet out form my back pocket as it was making a dent in my buttcheek lol.
