A blood feast of extreme metal played out Tuesday night at San Antonio’s Aztec Theatre as a four-band package tour teamed three originators of the genre with one newer, forward-looking act for an evening of aural carnage.Cannibal Corpse, the top-selling death metal act of all time, headlined.
Pre-recorded synths bubbled up between songs, providing a reminder that Blood Incantation also takes creating a vibe seriously. Even that early in the evening, the general admission area in front of the stage surged with activity. The moshing, writhing crowd became a seething organism as the night progressed. The lack of circle pits was surprising, but the slamming melee and crowd surfing made up for that. It may have been that the sold-out Aztec was simply too packed to accommodate circular motion.
Some audience members sported the look Tuesday night, though the show’s proximity to Halloween meant that it was offset by other less ominous costumes, such one dude’s giant banana outfit. And then it was Cannibal Corpse time. The death metal titans gave a no-frills performance focused exclusively on death growls, intense riffery and headbanging. Lots of headbanging.
