[DID NOT ATTEND: May 2, 2023] Spiritbox / After the Burial / Intervals
Spiritbox opened for Ghost on their last tour. I was really impressed by them, mostly because singer Courtney LaPlante has a beautiful delicate voice and then can, on a dime, scream with the best of them. I don’t necessarily like screamed/growled lyrics, but I love a singer with great range.
They have a broad range of sounds in the band too, with industrial and electronic elements quite prominent.
When we saw them, some fans had travelled a pretty long distance to see just them.
I’d have enjoyed this show but it was sold out even before I heard about it.
After the Burial are a progressive metal band, with a lot of emphasis on the metal. They have a very growly vocalist, which kind of ruins the impressive intricacies in their music.
Intervals is an instrumental progressive metal band. I prefer my progressive metal to be instrumental because I don’t really like the direction metal vocalists have gone. Intervals might be a little too perfect, though, being really precise instead of having a good feel. But I’ve only listened to two songs by them.
