    For those who don't know, The Knitting Factory is relatively small, so them all being up there and not nearly knocking each other off stage is impressive.

    Surrealistic Chthonic Death Metal from Downunder at the Knitting Factory, namely performed by the (darkly) unfathomably mighty Portal , sounds like the definition of the perfect nightmare, an extreme existing experience /EEE) and yet i yearn over having been there. There is no doubt in this world that this group revolutionized DM - yes, all the Cavemen are welcome as well as those overmeticulous, progressive mathematicians, but this iswas something completely different.

    i honest to satan have no idea why people make the comparison of ghost to this band. they are 2 totally separate genres (obviously. i get the "pope" look but if im comparing ghost to any band its kiss. portal is on a whole different plane of existence. just because aj good brought you here doesn't mean you're a master of music....only me.

      Ghost brings in a newer & younger audience with how accessible their music is. Those fans only have one point of reference to metal music & it's sadly Ghost. The same thing happened when Slipknot found commercial success, surface-level fans pointed towards every masked musician or attempt at anonymity as a shitty rip-off of their favourite band.

      Except that Ghost isn't even metal. For one, Portal have had this look for way longer than Ghost. Second, "The Curator", Portal's lead singer, has had many different looks - including a clockhead, witch's hat covering his entire head, and a medieval queen. Finally, Ghost is just not a suitable substitute for Portal because...I mean, have you actually listened to both bands? Portal is clearly in a *completely* different genre altogether. Ghost is like pop-ish hard rock, while Portal is, well.....Portal. Kind of an experimental Blackened Death, but not really placeable in that category either. I listen to Portal to be scared shitless. I listen to Ghost to.....well, I don't listen to Ghost.
