New site? Maybe some day.

Other band trolling threads are getting boring. Something new to make fun of for awhile:
Following a successful set at Denmark’s Heavy Days In Doomtown Festival, Rhode Island-based doom conjurors PILGRIM are pleased to announce their headlining appearance on this year’s edition of The Stoner Hands of Doom Fest. Set to take place August 30 through September 2 at El n Gee Club in New London, Connecticut, PILGRIM will appear alongside the likes of Earthride, Revelation, When The Deadbolt Breaks and more!
Stoner Hands of Doom is one of the premier annual gatherings for underground heavy/stoner/doom music in North America. SHoD has been held annually since 1999 in various small venues throughout the U.S. Many acts are unsigned/indie and many travel thousands of miles to gather in the name of rock. The concept was dreamed up by promoters Rob and Cheryl Levey, who have planned, booked and organized it since its inception. Under their guidance, the festival affectionately known as SHoD has grown over ten years from a one-day event to a weekend-long gathering, featuring over three dozen bands.
Comments drummer Krolg Splinterfist , the Slayer of Man: “Playing in Scandinavia was a great honor. The first ever Heavy Days in Doomtown festival was a massive success and PILGRIM is proud to have been a part of something that will surely become a chief ceremony for all lovers of music that is slow and heavy. Hails to all of the promoters and organizers who made our shows in the area a possibility! We will return sooner than later! PILGRIM looks into the future with great eagerness. The Stoner Hands of Doom festival has a long history in the New England doom metal community and we are prepared to add our name to the long list of bands that have glorified this fest. We are privileged and honored to be headlining the bill with the legendary Revelation, who has been an inspiration to many modern doom bands, ourselves included.”
In addition to their stint on SHoD, PILGRIM will bring their dirge to the stage of Brooklyn this Friday at Saint Vitus with fellow doom doers Witch Mountain.
PILGRIM Upcoming Dates
6/8/2012 Saint Vitus – Brooklyn, NY
8/31/2012 SHoD @ El N Gee Club – New London, CT
PILGRIM come to the Metal Blade roster via Alan Nemtheanga’s imprint, Poison Tongue Records. The doom trio consists of: Splinterfist alongside bassist Count Elric the Soothsayer and guitarist/vocalist The Wizard. With a mix of destruction, misery and beauty, these young disciples of doom blend a surprisingly original sword ‘n’ sorcery feel with the classic chest-caving heaviness of the masters, Black Sabbath, Saint Vitus, Reverend Bizarre and Pentagram. Their thick walls of majestically darkened guitar, massive booming bass, and dangerously powerful yet calculated drumming lull listeners into an intense dream-like trance, abducting them to places they never knew were dwelling within their own minds. Commented Pitchfork: “…in a realm where the old-school and the experimental push against one another in an eternally dynamic non-equilibrium, it’s certainly not about who your influences are. It’s, of course, about how you use them. PILGRIM simply have fun with these predecessors, renewing old sounds with the zeal of teenage boys worshipping cheap Sabbath posters on their bedroom walls and the skills of players who’ve been at this for a while.PILGRIM sing about devils and tears, paying dues and surviving adventures, taking care to touch on most of the requisite tropes while not pushing any one too far... This is an excellent debut from a preternaturally developed upstart.”

I remember Negative Reaction being pretty good when we played with them in brooklyn. Wasn't the dude in Spirit Caravan or something? |
|
Sucks that Revelation and Earthride are playing under these dolts. |

i think so, all i know is that the guitar player was ridiculously shitfaced and the whole night he was trying to piece together this story about how his name was "tom" because thats the only syllable he could properly pronounce whilst intoxicated. good band tho. |
|
The El 'n' Gee is one of the worst places to see a show in New England. |
|
You're just jealous because your not in PILGRIM. |
|
The Skull is ex Trouble correct? |
|
stoked to see these winners get laughed at in person when they play Providence on saturday. nothing about jealousy. just that teenagers shitting on their home state when they've contributed ZERO to it deserve nothing but contempt |
|
|
The Skull is ex Trouble correct? |
Yes. Basically original Trouble lineup. |
|
|

The Skull is essentially Trouble with a new line-up....they play all the classics....as far as these Pilgrim faggots go...I've been playing shows in Rhode Island for over ten years and have never met any of these cunts |

Yeah, given the type of shit this person books, I know better than to take their opinion on metal seriously. Not to mention I've never seen a lineup at Machines With Magnets I've really wanted to go to anyway. |
|
I had the original line-up of Electric Wizard blow my eardrums/mind at the El N Gee with an audience of like 5 people back in the day.
This whole fest could be easily crushed by one song from their set that night.
My point? Pilgrim is fat. |
|
I have been told that back in the 90s the El 'n' Gee was actually a really bangin' spot... that certainly isn't the case today |

Your loss. Witch Mountain is awesome live and haven't toured the East in like 10 years. Their last two records on Profound Lore have been boss. I'm not being a fool and missing this show, it's gonna rule.

Happy Hipster speaks the truth, Witch Mountain is a killer band. |
|
[QUOTE="Happy%20Hipster:1303463
. Their last two records on Profound Bore have been Bruce Springsteen. I'm born to run.

Isn't witch mountain a Disney movie or some shit? |
|
The sexual tension between lamp and this Pilgrim band is thick and steamy. |
|
|
Isn't witch mountain a Disney movie or some shit? |
yea it is, I posted that shiz on another thread about Warlock Canyon |
|
The entitled little pricks in Pilgrim didnt bother to show up to their show in providence tonight. Awesome |
|
if theres any band in the world that can suck my fucking dick its pilgrim. SUCK MY DICK PILGRIM |
|
That remind me of the time Brian and I didn't bother to show up at a Providence warehouse show because record deal plan. |
|
And they didn't tell the promoter or venue. Just didn't show up. So the two shows theyve actually ever been booked on in providence, they bailed last minute on both of those |
