On November 22, 2019. death metal legends Cannibal Corpse played a fucking killer show at the Warsaw in Brooklyn, New York and yours truly was on-hand to bring you all the brutal details.
When I got there, it was mere minutes before deathcore masters Thy Art Is Murder came onstage, From the get-go they played a savage and merciless set. Full of energy and brutality, they had the fans and the pit going. At about two or three songs into the set, their singer, Chris "C.J." McMahon, got off the stage and went into the crowd. It seems as their were problems with him hearing things well. The result was awesome, as a pit formed around him as he played the rest of the entire set among us fans. This was a surprise and one of the coolest moments in a concert, that I have ever seen, in person!
Setlist:
Death Squad Anthem
Make America Hate Again
Fur and Claw
Slaves Beyond Death
Holy War
No Absolution
Human Target
The Son of Misery
New Gods
Reign of Darkness
Puppet Master
As the time drew closer for Cannibal Corpse to hit the stage you could feel the anticipation of the fans, and then when they hit the place went fucking nuts. Throughout their set there was a sick pit and people flying as they crowd surfed. The fans let their love for these legends be fucking known!
And, Cannibal Corpse more than proved that after all these years, they are still without a shadow of a doubt one of the greatest death metal acts in all of death metal. As they gave us a heavy, unrelenting, and brutal performance.
It was also really fun, especially with their front-man George " Corpsegrinder" Fisher, who is cool as fucking hell. He and the rest of the band a have shit load of energy, headbanging hard as fuck. I don't think anyone can keep up up with Fisher, least of all his sick-ass windmils. Even, though he dared us to keep up with him, as they ripped through the classic "I Cum Blood"!
They played both classics and newer songs, off of their killer and most recent release Red Before Black. If it was up the audience they would've played all fucking night. But, alas, all good things must come to an end. Still, even though Fisher told the audience that the brutal, and my favorite song of theirs, "Stripped, Raped, and Strangled" was the last tune, he lied! Nope, it was actually the classic "Hammer Smashed Face"! What a killer way to end a killer show!
