This is a blank space in my metal history. Don't ask me why, because I can't explain. Anyway, I was very excited to seeing the band live, especially after reading so many positive reviews of their show at Headbangers Open Air. So, as a matter of fact, my expectations were quite high. Guitarist Doug Piercy is well known for his work with ANGEL WITCH, HEATHEN and ANVIL CHORUS, but Mark Biedermann is actually the main man here. Seeing Doug Piercy live definitely adds something to this show, as far as I'm concerned. The band already exists since 1979, which is almost forty freaking years, and they paved the way for many bands. "The Sane Asylum" is the perfect opener and it's quite obvious that this band is very eager to surprise the audience. The set list of tonight is quite simple, because the band will play the whole "The Sane Asylum" album tonight. They only shuffled around with the songs, so there is still a bit of a surprise, which song is going to be next. "Blood Shower" and "Vengeance Is Mine" are played in the right order. Among the many ex-members of the band there is also the name of Les Claypool, the man behind PRIMUS, but I must admit that nothing of his eccentric sound can be found back in the songs that they crank out tonight. Of course, the man was still young, when he started to play in BLIND ILLUSION. The guitar solos are amazing and I must admit that this band really is an eye opener to me. "Kamakazi" and "Smash The Crystal" are next and Biedermann shows that he's also a great guitar player and composer, because all songs are enjoyed a lot by the hungry crowd. For sure, they play a mind-blowing set, whereas the flow is sometimes not completely there, but I guess the band is having so much fun on stage that it takes them a bit longer to continue with the next song. "Vicious Visions" and "Metamorphosis Of A Monster" are next and sometimes the guitar players nearly destroy their strings by gliding with the neck of the guitar against the cymbals or the mike standard. They sure want to kill it all and they've got the strength to do just that. They don't only look vicious and mean, they also play to kill. They make some "Death Noise" and that's the last song of the "The Sane Asylum" album for tonight. There is still a bit of time left to spend on "Race With The Wizard". I experienced a very enthusiastic band and actually now I realize what I've missed all these years. You're never too old to learn new stuff, as you can see. Both thumbs up for BLIND ILLUSION!" #blindillusionband #progressivemetal #metal #music #metalmusic #heavymetalmusic #heavymetalband #speedmetalband #metalhead #heavymetal #thrashmetal #metalfans #guitarist #headbanger #metalfan
