Thrones & When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth - Emo's, Austin, TX - May 30, 2009


When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth: [from Austin TX] this was a band that was on our radar during SXSW – we never ended up seeing them though which wasn’t a big deal since they’re local – this too was more of a chance sighting than anything else but I was still disappointed – I expected more psych metal and less screamo – the music was heavy and complicated (good) but the vocals were grating and annoying: too discordant to even be screamo –the lead singer was fascinating though with his spawn-from-the-river-like writhing – noise-rock meets no wave – possibly, possibly it was my own bad attitude and the fact that I should have been in bed… (Photo courtesy of https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/music/2007-03-07/453214/)

Thrones: [from Seattle WA] suddenly I missed When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth – a lone tower of a man playing sludge metal… all by his lonesome – Why? Why would you be a one-man-metal-band? (Photo courtesy of https://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/1816038)
