Unfortunately readers we didn’t make it in time for Fit For An Autopsy due to an unforeseen errand run which left us tight for time.

Next up was Massachusetts’ own Within the Ruins who unfortunately no matter how many times I’ve seen them manage to bore me to tears. The up side for the audience in attendance the band is both energetic and very engaging, looking for a crowd response and and command of the pit. The band are master of their instruments, but still leave a lot to be desired sonically. Seeing as the band is only a four-piece, they can only do so much which causes the band to rely off sample’s in place of a second guitarist, something I feel they would benefit greatly from.

Reports before the tour brought news of Frankie Palmeri of Emmure being advised by his doctors to not sing or preform till his vocal chords heal or he may loose his ability to speak permanently. So there has been a stand in on this tour and occasionally Frankie takes vocal duties, but for this show at the Webster Jayden Panesso of Sylar came out via bus to do two shows in Frankie’s place. Jayden was introduced on stage by Frankie himself and did quite a fantastic job under such short notice. Not one line was missed nor song was hiccuped, as if he had been doing it for years. There was some notable songs missing from the set but they made do with what they had and the crowd still went wild. maybe this will leave them with high expectations for the next tour set list? A very “go for the throat” kinda set.

And now the crowd rests and the stage is changed and made ready for the onslaught to come from California’s own Suicide Silence!

Opening up with ‘No Pity For A Coward’ got the crowd ready for what was to come. This is my first time seeing the band with new singer Eddie Hermida formerly of All Shall Perish and he definitely commands the audience and is right at home with the band as if he had been there all along. After the set Eddie and Bassist Danny Kenny came down from the stage and shook hands and said hello with every one in the front row that waited for them; taking pictures signing things and hugging and thanking every person individually for their continued support. It really goes to show how genuine these guys are and care about there fans.
