» I don’t know very well how to define the following band, Hellcome. Apparently they started as a thrash metal band, some 14 years ago. But what they played that night was anything but. On MySpace they define themselves as metal/rock, but I would add “alternative” to that mixture. Good musicians, you could feel a solid musical background in both performance and songwriting, but it just wasn’t my cup of tea. And to say the voice didn’t impress me is an understatement. Luckily, we all have different tastes and there were people enjoying their gig.
In 2000 they won the Rocklusos award for best demotape, with “Broken Society”, and they started the gig with two of the three songs from that demo, “Running Locomotive” and “Breathe”. The setlist says they covered Sepultura’s “Slave New World” but I honestly didn’t hear it. The last song, “Cry At The Moon”, isn’t featured in any of their three demos, so I believe it’s a brand new one. «
