Katatonia & Novembre @ Mean Fiddler - London - 22.4.06

That was the first time I could stand in the front row, it just felt so good, so near to the bands ^^ Novembre played the open set. Well, I heard about them but never listened to any albums of them before. Their music are dark, similar to early Katatonia in the 90s. I was quite impressed with the bass player, his bass-lines are impressive and more than good. Quite disappointed with the guitarist, or more appropriately, the guitar sounds. It was simply lost... Well, in conclusion, Novembre is a band worth checking them out.
Katatonia was the main character of the show because this show is for promoting their new album "The Great Cold Distance", they played a couple of songs from the new album, from "Viva Emptiness" and only few songs from earlier album like "Tonight's Decision" and "Last Fair Deal Gone Down"... sadly, no songs from "Dance of December Souls" or "Brave Murder Day" era were played. The band really showed off their level... They were perfect! That night was the guitarist's birthday as well, he poped a champagne and sprayed over the fans! ^^ I was not prepared to capture that moment, haizz...
