Green Day Makes Statement On Saviors Tour In DC

 

When Green Day starts a tour, they know how to make it big. When Green Day makes a statement, they know how to get attention. Add all that, and then have Green Day celebrate the 30th anniversary of Dookie and 20th anniversary of American Idiot. The Saviors Tour was definitely made to be something memorable.

The tour opener at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. would not be canceled due to political statements toward fascism or a storm that caused an hour delay. 2024 marks a significant year for Green Day. Along with the two album anniversaries and full playthroughs, the band also released Saviors early this year which was a return to form for the group.

Seeing and hearing the performance of “The American Dream Is Killing Me” up close was great. Later seeing Billie Joe Armstrong hold up a Trump mask with the word IDIOT on it was a surprise, but also on point for Green Day who has been targeting political figures since the American Idiot years. Anyone who is in shock by Green Day going political has not been paying attention to Green Day at any point.

My favorite part however was hearing so much of Dookie live. The sequence of “Basket Case” to “She” was something special for me and I’m glad I was there to see it in Nationals’ park.

Along for many of The Saviors Tour is another staple from the 90’s, The Smashing Pumpkins. Now stacking the lineup with new guitarist Kiki Wong, the band’s sound is more fleshed out. Although the Pumpkins tour was cut short due to the weather delay, the band got in the main staples from Mellon Collie to a crowd willing to sing along.

The biggest casualty of the night was Rancid, who started their performance with fire but were cut short less than two songs in when stagehands told the group that the lightning and impending storm would demand a stadium evacuation. Here’s hoping Rancid can return to the nation’s capital soon.

Opening the tour was The Linda Lindas out of Los Angeles. Watching them perform live in the stadium was seeing the purest form of joy for a young band, realizing they have an incredible opportunity to perform in front of so many.

The traffic getting in was rough. The storm delay was brutal. Getting to hear Green Day with such vigor was worth the wait. Whether it was Buddy the mascot doing the worm on stage, or the endless sing-alongs from DC, this was a great way to open a Summer tour. Both old and new sides of Green Day were heard, and everything was well received. It was the rare happy night in DC where everyone could agree that what occurred was great.

“Green Day has officially launched their highly anticipated “Saviors Tour” in Washington, D.C., captivating fans at Nationals Park on July 29, 2024. This North American tour promises to be an unforgettable experience, featuring a remarkable 37-song setlist that spans the band’s illustrious career. Concertgoers were treated to a vibrant performance that showcased Green Day’s iconic hits and new material, setting the tone for the rest of the tour. As the band embarks on this exciting journey, fans across the country can look forward to electrifying shows filled with energy and nostalgia.” (Perplexity)

Lamb Of God Ignite Homecoming Show with Mastodon on Ashes Of Leviathan Tour

Ashes Of Levithan Tour. A metal celebration honoring the 20th anniversary of two amazing albums: Ashes Of the Wake from Lamb Of God, and Levithan from Mastodon. When this tour was announced earlier in 2024, it seemed like the perfect matchup and reason for the bands to tour. Adding Kerry King of Slayer with is solo project and up and coming British metalcore band Malevolence added extra depth to one of the best metal tours of the year.

Lamb Of God Homecoming with Mastodon, Kerry King, Malevolence #Shorts

The Richmond, VA performance was the homecoming show for Lamb Of God. 20 years celebrating Ashes Of The Wake and riling up Richmond is a good reason to celebrate. The band had many friends and family in attendance along with a packed Virginia Credit Union Live (which is a venue I do hope gets used more in the area).

Hearing the crowd know the lyrics and sing sections of Ashes Of The Wake reinforced my belief that heavy music can last with people. At one point, VA State Senator Danica Roem was seen crowd surfing (as seen by guitarist Mark Morton). A Senator of the people, proving they know their assignment.

Between songs, Randy Blythe took a moment to talk about how this was Lamb Of God’s first performance at Virginia Credit Union Live since 2016 for a GWARBQ. Blythe also thanks many Richmond metal and hardcore bands, including young and upcoming ones Blythe recommended checking out. It was clear that Blythe wanted to show respect to Richmond as the city has treated the band so well over 20+ years.

Mastodon brought back their massive video boards and trippy visuals to play their brand of groove metal roughly one year after the band’s last visit to Virginia Credit Union Live. The group’s sound along with the presentation has always been impressive since the first time I saw the group perform in 2017. I hope more people get to experience Mastodon live.

After Mastodon’s set, Brann Dailor walked to center stage and told the story about how 20 years ago, Brann was at a Richmond Best Buy and saw both Levithan and Ashes Of The Wake at the best sellers section in the CD aisle. Dailor called Randy Blythe who also couldn’t believe it. As a former employee of Best Buy 20 years ago (Store #773 to be specific), I can confirm that both albums were indeed selling well across the US. Best Buy used to be a great place for music, and Mastodon and Lamb Of God are still great to hear in 2024.

Along with Slayer returning to the stage later this year at Riot Fest, Kerry King is working with his solo project. A thrash inclusion to a tour like this was a good choice and hearing King’s solo work along with Slayer classics was a fun addition to the evening. Kerry King still sounds great while shredding and has a great presence live.


This was my first time seeing Malevolence live. I had known the band from hearing singles on SiriusXM Octane and it was good to put faces to the sound. Malevolence’s vocalist gave credit to Lamb Of God and being proud to perform in the hometown of one of Malevolence’s favorite bands. This band was a strong opener.

Ashes Of Leviathan Tour is something unique in metal: a tour that celebrates the anniversary of two successful albums from bands that have remained friends over the years WHILE proving that metal has lasting power. Here’s hoping there are more examples of this in the future.

Joining them are special guests Kerry King and Malevolence, adding to the lineup’s star power.” (Perplexity)

Interview: Marc Centanni (Harpazo) discusses debut album, ‘The Crucible,’ rediscovering his faith

When I returned to Rocked, I chose to emphasize that transition by reviewing an album that especially resonated with me — The Crucible, a concept album by guitarist Marc Centanni and producer Gary Wehrkamp, better known collectively as Harpazo. Originally, Marc had messaged me about reviewing the album, and I informed him that with an album of this magnitude, an interview about it would serve as the perfect companion piece. After some scheduling adjustments, we were finally able to make this happen.

Marc and I dived into the many and varied bands who shaped his guitar playing, the chance meeting between he and Gary that changed his trajectory, the assembling of both Christian and progressive metal talent for this project, and how getting back in touch with his Christian faith transformed his outlook on life.

Powerwolf – Wake Up The Wicked | Album Review

Germany’s cult of werewolves are back on the power metal prowl and it’s more than welcome. This is an album filled with songs to sing along with as anthems like “1589”. The picked up speed in songs like “Sinners Of The Seven Seas” and “Thunderpriest” give Powerwolf a better pulse. That energy is refreshing. Faulk’s vocals are booming. The guitars and keys are fun, it’s exactly what Powerwolf is known for. There are no surprises at this point from the religious lycanthropes but the music is so bombastic and infectious that it’s hard to be upset. This is on par with past Powerwolf albums in the best of ways. Over half this album is destined to be shredded and shouted live as this album has a big stage feel. Power metal should be energetic, loud, and fun. Wake Up The Wicked exemplifies that idea. These wolves are once again good boys. 8/10.

Best Tracks:
“Sinners Of The Seven Seas”
“Thunderpriest”

Powerwolf Wake Up The Wicked Album Review
Powerwolf “Sinners Of The Seven Seas”

“Powerwolf, the renowned German power metal band, continues to solidify their status as a leading force in the heavy metal scene with their latest album, “Wake Up the Wicked.” Released on July 26, 2024, this album is a highly anticipated follow-up to their successful 2021 release, “Call of the Wild.” Produced by Joost van den Broek at Sandlane Recording Facilities, “Wake Up the Wicked” showcases Powerwolf’s signature blend of hard-hitting, varied, and surprising tracks while introducing new facets of their musical and technical prowess. The album features standout tracks like “1589,” based on a true 16th-century story, and promises to add many future live hits to their discography. This release coincides with Powerwolf’s first full North American tour and their largest European headline tour to date, making it a significant milestone in their 20-year career.” (Perplexity)

“Lars Ulrich, the co-founder and drummer of Metallica, has been a polarizing figure in the world of heavy metal music. Known for his distinctive drumming style and contributions to Metallica’s songwriting, Ulrich’s abilities behind the kit have been both praised and criticized throughout his career. While he played a crucial role in shaping Metallica’s iconic sound, particularly during their thrash metal era in the 1980s, his technical skills have often been questioned by critics and fans alike. Some argue that Ulrich’s drumming lacks the precision and complexity of his peers in the thrash metal genre, citing issues with timing and repetitive fills. However, supporters emphasize his unique approach to composition and arrangement, which has been instrumental in crafting Metallica’s hit songs. Despite the controversies surrounding his drumming, Ulrich’s impact on metal music is undeniable, and his style remains an integral part of Metallica’s sound, even as it has evolved over the decades.” (Perplexity) 

“In the vibrant world of metal music, “hot takes” are a common phenomenon, sparking passionate debates among fans. These hot takes often involve bold, unfiltered opinions about bands, albums, and the genre’s evolution. Whether it’s declaring that Slipknot’s early records will gain greater reverence over time or critiquing specific songs like “The Toxic Waltz” by Exodus, metal enthusiasts are never shy about voicing their controversial views. Platforms like Reddit, Rate Your Music, and social media channels are rife with these discussions, showcasing the diverse and often polarizing perspectives within the metal community. This culture of hot takes not only fuels lively conversations but also highlights the deep personal connections fans have with the music, making the metal scene uniquely dynamic and ever-evolving.” (Perplexity)

Interview: Alma Perez of COATL discusses her career progression, importance of resilience

Los Angeles’s COATL was formed in the early 2000s by singer/guitarists Alma Perez and Israel Vega. COATL’s signature approach, a fusion of alternative metal with seasonings of indigenous melodies and lore, was initially encapsulated on their 2006 debut album, El Despertar De La Serpiente. Three years later, the band’s sophomore album, El Llamado Del Jaguar, not only amplified those influences, but expanded their fanbase nationally as well as in Mexico. By 2018, the band’s reinvigorated drive led to a series of impactful singles culminating in the release of 2021’s Samskara. Late last year, they would reach another creative milestone with their fourth and latest album, Shakti. The album explores a larger emphasis on Indian instrumentation, while competently pairing themes of ancient mysticism with those of a cynical modern world. Currently, the band is working on their follow up and will resume touring in mid-August, starting with two shows in Mexico on the 16th and 17th.

On Monday, Alma Perez came on to Rocked to discuss her penchant for Mexican history, the band’s growth throughout their discography, the logistics of their live shows, and how resilience has kept her grounded both in and outside of music.
