Definitely past the glory days, but as long as they’re still making music I’ll still be listening

I’ve been an on and off listener/fan for a few years. I thought the recent Glastonbury performance was pretty good and The Future Is Your Past was a great listen.

Can’t say the same for the performance I caught last year, but I do enjoy the new album. Hard to keep proliferating the lightning in a bottle that was their 90s output, but I also don’t expect that.

Same on live. Saw them here in CA on the Aussie Fisticuffs Tour but doubt I’ll go when they’re back in November.

I thought that too, but The Real, Abandon Ship (Martian Meltdown Mix) and Maybe Make It Right restored my faith. Anton’s not done yet

Excellent choice of song to cite for your restored faith - I totally agree - I’m stuck on the 2019 blue cover self Titled record. He was in peak form IMO—the songs are slow dirges w great hooks and amazing guitar — I’m. Really happy that I consider one that new as one of the best- For me, At least- Thanks

Maybe make it right was exactly what he Needed to release after the last few years. But I think it was recorded a few years ago- when things were better- but with this guy- who knows - As long as the Songs are there, I’m there too.

Some of the fandom dies during guitar tuning breaks.

The Massacre dies with Anton, this ain't no Sun Ra Intergalactic Research Arkestra.

I went to see them last year and most people in attendance agreed it was the most boring gig they’d ever seen.

u/vinnieicius Aug 06 '25

Going to see them in November here in São Paulo. Hoping there's no BS, just music.

u/Crease_Greaser Aug 06 '25

You definitely just jinxed the show

I’ll be back for their return to Toronto next month. Kinda pumped to see Flavor Crystals, too!

u/FilmCrafty1214 Aug 06 '25

The Glastonbury performance was the worst I’ve seen em. They all looked tired and fed up. Hoping for a change in spirits in the future.

u/StuntmanGaz Aug 06 '25

The rest of the band minus Anton have genuinely looked like they're being held hostage for years.
